The carpet is thick, soft and cream coloured, while the walls are a yellow bronze colour. In the corner along one wall there is a large sofa, able to seat 4 or 5 people comfortably. Along the other corner wall there is a smaller sofa for 2 or 3 people. In the middle of the furniture, there is a low, round coffee table, perfect for colouring at or for other craft activities.

There is a scratching post and a cat tree for climbing, which are both along the wall opposite the couch. A few fluffy beds have also been put out, in varying sizes, in case any one prefers the floor. There is also a large sturdy perch and a marked off area that says "Landing Pad" in case any winged friends want to visit.

There is now a blue chaise chair in the nook as well, which has been placed near the couch and is good for both sitting and spreading out lengthwise.

There are two baskets off to the side. One contains fuzzy blankets, a variety of fuzzy and textured pillows, and a collection of stuffed animals while the other contains a variety of art supplies, ranging from colouring pages and blank paper to crayons and coloured pencils, and more besides.


Extra goodies today include assorted chocolates, homemade chicken noodle soup, and bean salad with various torillas for makinh wraps if desired.

A lot of things are more sensible. Chamomile, peppermint, and lavender are excellent choices too.

>> As does not waiting until it's dire and a huge problem. <<

I have largely been disgusted by how little information there is, and when I find some, how much of it is bad. >_< I should not have to do everyone else's fucking job in addition to my own.

>> I really do need to check that out. I've looked a few times, but the prices still make me hesitant, so I haven't actually bought any yet. <<

Clinical-grade chocolate is never cheap. Even in T-America, where it is more available, it is not cheap. It needs to be organic, it needs top-quality ingredients, and if at all possibly it should follow other laudable guidelines such as being fair trade, shade grown, etc. These produce maximum benefits.

Stop comparing clinical-grade chocolate to a Hershey bar and start comparing it to other over-the-counter medicines. It's not just a snack. Sure, you can eat it as one, but you can also eat cough candy that way. If you want medicinal chocolate, you will have to pay extra for the added quality.

I suggest that you try a few different brands of the best chocolate you can find and afford. See which you like better -- it should taste good or it won't work as well. (We hit one 95% dark chocolate that was so bad I wrote about poem about it.) See if you can sense a difference based on the brand, cocoa solids content, or other factors.
