"How are you?" You might ask,

"Vibrating with anxiety," I shall reply.

"Anything in particular?"

"EVERYTHING in GENERAL!" I cry as the vibrations reach a fevered pitch and I shatter into a thousand dots of sparkling light.

As you requested: Duncan & Pearl playing with me & solo. The big nylabone is actually one I bought 14 years ago for her brother Quince (left us in 2024). Seeing her getting into it warms my heart (& makes me miss quince but what can you do?)

*applying to Escape to the Country*

What I need is a charming house with a large utility room and land for enough terriers and schnauzers.

I'd like some extra bedrooms for when my kids come visit and surely the dogs won't mind some extra beds.

Yes, thanks Jules.
*BRB running away to the UK to adopt some dogs*

*sighs heavily because I cannot, in fact, run away and adopt some dogs* 😢
Just 4 of the dogs being helped through your amazing support.

The pups essential vet care costs are paid for through a Schnauzerfest Grant to Dogs Friends Rescue. They’re arriving with their new fosterer any moment now!

For adoption details please see Somerset based Dogs Friends Rescue website.

Sooo cute this mouse.

Liza's work always does such a wonderful of showing us the holy in the natural world. The small things of beauty that are divine.
Today’s moment of calm, is this commission that I’ve just finished this morning. A tiny icon/triptych of a mouse clutching a stitchwort garland. A gift for a very special person. I am now opening my commissions diary for the next few months should you be interested?

I have been thrown for a loop by a kid home sick! Darn it!

Hoping he recovers fast but went to the doctors hours ago and no answer on results yet. Just want that "clear from all the big guns" so I can go back to plan A of ply him with tea with honey.

Thawing some sweet potato soup (I think it's sweet potato?)

And baking up some sourdough.

What would you put on your sourdough toasts?

Cheese? Some sort of cauliflower spread? Tomatoes? White beans spread?

Something else?

Help bread baker friends!!

I want to make this but I bave a sluggish starter (not quite doubled yet at 6 hrs) and only bread flour not AP.

Can I go ahead with it anyway?

I need to start soon to have it done by dinner.

I just love it* when the day's discourse is:

AI is awful and will steal our jobs and also kill us by doing them badly.

An AI bust while possible really might NOT happen.

So here, have some doom.

I am underwhelmed by the new expensive blinds.

Hopefully I will get over it. Hopefully.
New blinds are being installed in 4 rooms here today!!!

Now to make sure the installers can somehow make it through the front hall which is strewn with winter wear. 😬
