Meet Ashley. A snowy white rabbit with a pink nose and a sparkling-like-a-diamond disposition. Almost always.

This little funny bunny has but one question lately:

Normally she doesn't yell like that, but Ashley has been holed up in her burrow all winter long, and her stash of root vegetables is getting pretty darn low. Not to mention her disposition. It isn't quite so sparkly lately.

And that's not blue sky that you see behind her either. Outside the skies are gray gravy sludge, spewing rain and occasional sloppy sleet. So Ashley's friend Bea came over and they painted the burrow walls a lovely shade of sky blue.

They also added a mural of fanciful flowers as tall as Ashley's pastel-pink-lined ears. Suddenly Ashley's disposition ascended from the doldrums and she broke out the box of chocolate-dipped violets that she'd been saving for just such a special occasion. Bea was delighted. They will paint her burrow later this week.
