An open letter to Karen

My dearest Karen,

I want to thank you for the many years of friendship and sisterhood we have shared. As I told you many moons ago, when I met you it was as if I had been seeing the world in black and white and was now suddenly seeing it in blazing Technicolor.

There is one little problem I would like to bring to your attention. Knowing me so well, you have probably already made an accurate guess!

Yes, I’m afraid I’m feeling that when it comes to your darling baby, you’re a bit of a hog. What will it take to get you to share him with me, wench?!? Must I go through with the plan the squirrel mafia has proposed? Don’t think I won’t do it. And don’t think for a minute we won’t post a chipmunk at your ‘escape window’.

In the spirit of peace and love, I’d like to offer an alternative to the potentially messy ‘Operation Rodent’ :

In exchange for the opportunity to play with Timmy (by which I mean you actually set a date and time – NO TIME MAGIC), I am prepared to offer you one pint of Habanero Peach Preserves, lovingly prepared by myself just yesterday.

The choice is yours.

Love and kisses,

Rue

P.S. Thanks so much for suggesting I post open letters on my blog!
