Annie captured the beast. She was so fast, I didn’t get a picture. But I have one of Raven, having taken the prize from the ever-saintly Annie, then squeezing the beast to get lime juice.
No lime juice, so Raven decided to try something else. I knew she was up to something when we were all outside and Raven had run into the house. Moments later, Raven came back out with something in her mouth. She spat it out. It was half a lime I had squeezed and left on the counter! (Luna is looking at Raven as if she lost a few marbles.)
Raven stared at the lime for most of the afternoon. She knew the thing was food, but why couldn’t she eat it? It bit her every time she stuck it in her mouth.
Even Lilian came along to test sniff.
Nothing convinced Raven to let that lime go. Raven continued her fascination with that green fruit, while the rest of us wondered, “Just how loopy is Raven?”
“I’m Raven. I’m a little loopier than some.”
