As much as I am enjoying the warm spring weather, I am not thrilled about porcupine season. In the last couple of years, Roli has managed to attack two porcupines. The first one was hidden in a gully, he jumped over our fence to get the other. Both resulted in emergency vet visits to remove quills from his face.

It is safe to say that Roli has not learned from his mistakes. We saw a porcupine on the walk today and he nearly dragged me as he tried to get to it. As much as I think he is out of his head, it reminded me of the some of the choices I make. As much as I know certain treats have little nutritional benefit and potential adverse health consequences, I keep going back for them because they are so delicious. Just like Roli, I can’t help myself (or don’t want to).

What is your guilty pleasure?
