Earlier this week I laughed to see the white alpaca in the yard next door, the fiestier of the two, come charging up to the fence to send the quails wildly scattering. It was so clearly deliberate—but why on earth? Devilment? Whimsy? Simply the instinct of a dog chasing a cat? They look so comical, these overgrown French poodles, one likes to think they have an appropriately giddy sense of humor. ("The one-L lama is a priest; the two-L llama is a beast . . . ")
Another happy discovery of the week: Tibetan yak oven mitts.
