Cat needing a forever home

Julie from Judea

I have a cat that needs a new forever home as soon as possible. She was my grandparents cat but they have recently moved into a rest home and they couldn't take her with them. Her name is Dora and she's a 14 year old calico. She is nervous around people she doesn't know but with time and love she will be a friendly, sweet, affectionate cat. She hasn't been to the vet for a little while but she is healthy and I can take her for a check up before she goes to her new home. She is best suited to a home with no other pets and no young children. She is used to being in a quiet home. She likes spending time outside and would enjoy curling up in your lap as well. She is currently living in Bethlehem.

Suellen’s sweet Christmas tradition

Bob Owens Retirement Village

The festive season is always a great excuse to indulge your sweet tooth, and this time of year poses the perfect opportunity to bring a real showstopper to the Christmas table.

For Suellen’s family, that showstopper is Croquembouche, an impressive tower of cream puffs bound together with spun sugar that is popular at weddings in France and Italy.

What began as a birthday treat at a local French café has become a cherished Christmas tradition for Suellen and her 17-year-old twin granddaughters, Ellie and Sadie. Every year, the trio gather in Suellen’s apartment at William Sanders Village to cook this festive dessert - a holiday highlight they all treasure.
