I make two bowls of warmed, minced lamb and cut chicken breast, with a sachet of decent cat food between, Misty gets a while sachet and a little lamb and chicken. Once Misty has near finished I let the kittens back into the kitchen. Given that all bowls are pretty much the same, what's special about the one?
"Down in the darkness
The depths of her soul
Where the fear lies
Barely uncontrolled"
Dragonpriest : "Where are you going ma'am?"
Anna Valeriya : "I'm hungry. Do not follow me."
Dragonpriest : "Fascinating, for all these time, you can survive from the power of Mehrunes Dagon that corrupting your soul. That is quite complicated situation between father and daughter."
Anna Valeriya : "Shut up. I have to go."
If you are a fan of my work, I would really appreciate it if you would "like" my page on facebook at: Josh Sommers Art. Thank you!
I finally have started to read this The Hunger Games trilogy. I'm on Mockingjay and so far I have enjoyed them. I highly recommend them to young adults but the story is not a cheesy mushy story, so I think any age can enjoy them.

hi this is my another account

ADD ME PLEASE BECAUSE i reached my limit of photos in THIS ACCOUNT
shot for an assignment based photo blog called this is a photo blog (dot com). this month was "film as inspiration" so i chose "the hunger" which uses a lot of mini blinds and really shadowy light. i originally wanted to use a really cold blue palette but when i saw the warm version of this photo, i ended up liking it much more and it started reminding me of blade runner as well.
the quality isn't what i am used to as this was shot on the second level and the light source was a gas station a block away so it was super weak light and i had to shoot at 2 seconds at iso 1600 and so there is bad digital grain and motion blur on top of it but to recreate that light i would have needed to get on the roof of the grocery store across the way which i may end up doing since i like this and want a better quality version to use for my book but this will do for now.

I heard this long before I saw it .. The frog was squealing more than croaking ... The ambitious snake had pretty much swallowed one of the frogs legs . I watched the struggle for awhile before I took this shot . When I tried to get even closer the snake abruptly let go his hold and the frog hopped away happy I'm sure as the snake slithered off mad and hungry . Nature at it's finest .
o estômago que escala o esôfago rumo à boca... com a ânsia de um grito. os olhos baixos, humilhados não pela vergonha do indivíduo, mas de toda a humanidade.

Mattel’s Hunger Game Katniss comes with uncured glue inside the head. It is a waxy, sticky substance that causes the hair to look greasy when the original style is taken out of the braid. No amount of sudsing will remove the sticky film. The only solution is to reroot the head. Note: This doll was rerooted twice because even though a thorough cleaning was performed the glue and stickiness is so pervasive the head required a second thorough cleaning.
The subject of this Picture of the Week, a spiral galaxy named NGC 1589, was once the scene of a violent bout of cosmic hunger pangs; as astronomers looked on, a poor, hapless star was torn apart and devoured by the ravenous supermassive black hole at the centre of the galaxy.
