Say it ain't so, allergy blood panel!! I'm allergic to these kids? Starting the immunotherapy next week, so in only 3 yrs or so I can snuggle them without sneezes. Happy #Caturday anyway.

Just me here. Keeping you company while you pull garden weeds. That other one? Never saw ‘em before #Caturday. #cats

Everybody be posting #tomatoes! Here are San Marzano and Black Plum, ready for the Mouli (for a lovely, fresh passata) and freezer. Harvested a few days back in breaker stage, which is an actual thing. #gardens #gardening

Just wondering what evolutionary strategy this little green bean was adopting? Like, "if I curl up they won't eat me?" #Gardening #Garden #OrganicFarming

Lazuli bunting, Bird of the day from a glorious hike. I can't photo birds worth crap, so offering this from Montana Audubon. With photo credit and everything.

Happy #Caturday to those who celebrate. This guy’s not because that napping spot is now occupied!

Hey, Jepson Manual (and botany taxonomy community), Are you trying to confuse people? Spent way too long yesterday trying to ID this because I knew it back in the day (like, last spring?) as Disporum. And now it's Prosartes, sheesh. #flowers #wildflowersofmontana

Happy #Caturday to all, especially this beauty who, in fact, DOES NOT have cardiomyopathy, but was having a life-threatening reaction to an accidental overdose of an anti-asthma steroid injection. Vet tech error almost killed my girl.

Everything busting out crabapple!

Worst #Caturday ever. This beauty was diagnosed today with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Gonna give her the best summer ever.

Trying the #MarkBittman no-knead. Not too bad.

McTeague's Bar in San Francisco. Wooden tablets of cultural iconsWoo above the bar. Rick James, Curt Cobain, Janis Joplin, Richard Pryor, couple others, can't remember (it's a bar!). This one's for you @stroejummer.bsky.social Cant read the blue writing, but, yeah, it says Joe Strummer.

Always like to photo the miracle of a soufflé. Took this one out of the oven, sky-high, then had to run to the other room to get my phone. By then… I swear this one had been tall, very tall.
