    SITE POLICY JUNE 2009
    New Members must now be approved by admin in order to prevent further spammer problems.
    SITE POLICY February 2009
    In the last week we have had a problem with SPAMMERS signing up as members not filling in their profiles and then writing spam blog posts advertising dubious products which have nothing to do with being creative.
    So our Creative Cafe policy is now to just ban such members as soon as they are spotted without any explanation.

    Catnip Stew



    I have no idea why Lalo likes this old roasting pan to sleep in. It leaks so I just set plants in it - maybe he likes the sunshine that comes in the east windows in that room.
