I did decide to bring this series back. Unfortunately, Crushing Hopes and Dreams will not be making a return. Anyways, onto the latest Emma-flavored episode. Episode 3 The Rice Girl The rice bowl is a bowl the humans keep stored in a safe, held way, way above my head. I jump and I jump but I can't quite get my teeth onto the sacred bowl. Often, the humans will remove the rice bowl from its containment to perform a ritual with it, pouring the rice into the bowl. They put the bowl in a noisy machine that seems to serve no purpose and when they take it out, the rice is suddenly heated. I do not understand how this machine works, but from the humans' conversations, I understand that it is a "wave". What a "wave" is is beyond me, but when the humans finish their ritual, they provide me with some of the bounty. The rice is warm and melts in your mouth, and there is nothing I wouldn't give for just one more taste.
