The Persistance of a Beagle

The Persistance of a Beagle
Scout’s behavior (and Mercy’s too) can often be bothersome to me.

Look What I Found

I’ve been battling a little bit of a dry, scratchy throat. and I know from experience, the Thieves Cough Drops (combined with menthol from peppermint essential oil) do the trick to comfort and soothe. Seriously, they are the bomb! They have spoiled me against all other cough and throat drops.
