This week's bonus mini episode of The Sporkful podcast is up! Listen through the player or iTunes/Podcasts app. (And please subscribe!)

When Sporkful listener Diane and her husband were first married, they adopted a cat and named him Cloudy. As new cat owners, they spoiled Cloudy and gave him the run of the kitchen. They let him graze on whatever they left on the counter -- pretzels, cupcakes, cinnamon buns, even onions. Then, one Thanksgiving, the couple traveled over four hundred miles, with Cloudy in tow, to Diane's mother-in-law's house for Thanksgiving. Enter The Pie.

In this bonus mini Sporkful episode, Diane shares the hilarious story of the intense battle between Cloudy and her mother-in-law.
