I live in a northern exurb of Atlanta. We got snow today! Not real snow, but enough to say it happened. My transfer student from Miami had never seen snow before. He was beyond excited.

Grover Cleveland here made me late for work today. She snuggled in bed with me, demanding affection. Who am I to deny her?

These 2 aren’t Boomers, they are Silent Generation. They went to an SAR thing before joining a No Kings protest.

Thanks to 5 weeks in physical therapy, I was able to work on the lathe today for the first time in MONTHS. I am pleased with the outcome. This is going to my niece, who went through her graduation ceremony last weekend. Combination graduation/housewarming gift.

#HappyCaturday my girls really get along well, better than I could have hoped. Grover no longer qualifies as a kitten, but she is still a tiny orange fluffy girl.

#HappyCaturday It is a relatively chilly May day in GA, and the kitties are snuggling.

You got a STEAL! My mom weaves baskets, and hers are priced considerably higher than that. This was the Easter basket she gave my daughter last year.

#HappyCaturday Emilio, the best kitty to ever exist, enjoys a late afternoon snooze. He made himself scarce we assembled some bookcases and moved all of my cookbooks to it.

As I suspected, I overcooked the Pavlovas. Went for less the the minimum time, but whatever. We ate them. I did manage to get the perfect medium rare on the lamb chops.
Oh, and we should not ignore SignalGate, Part 2. Pete Hegseth is a national security risk.

Oh, do I have an 06:15 call time tomorrow morning, with a 45 minute drive, and rather than practicing my solos to sing (Exulstet chant, and an arrangement of a hymn that the director did), am I baking? Think I over baked the pavlova shells, but nailed the pignoli cookies. #HappyEaster

#HappyCaturday Natasha has been licking my arm for reasons unknown. She was almost feral when she first arrived, but she has really settled in nicely.

I work with a woman who keeps chickens. A few weeks ago, I asked her if she had any eggs, I would love to buy some. She brought me a dozen but refused payment. Yesterday I brought her 4 empty cartons with $10 tucked in. Today, she brought this and told me not to pay; she is overrun with them.

The final product. Braised short rib ragu over handmade pasta, with grated Parm. I hurt in too many joints right now, but this was one of the best meals I have ever eaten. Definitely one of the best I have ever made.

Pasta progress. Considering my rheumatologist advised me this week that I need physical therapy for my shoulders, I consider this a win.

#HappyCaturday Oscar is working overtime at the biscuit factory. Yes, he is sucking on the blanket. He definitely was taken from his mama way too soon. Meanwhile, Grover is looking angelic, like she didn’t imbed her claws in my thigh in an attempt to get my yarn earlier.

Pasta in the making. It will make a nice base for the braised short rib ragu that is to come.
