It’s a meee!
I met a fishing spider today!!! This guy was about 2-2.5” diameter. Sadly missing a leg but he was happily chilling with me. A closer look at the fishing spider. He had no tips for me, sadly.

“The chills that you spill up my back keep me filled, with satisfaction when we're done, satisfaction of what's to come…I couldn’t dance for another…” 🎵🎶
The newly redesigned atrium in the building where I work. The view is looking down from the second floor at a giant circular carpet with concentric orange circles getting lighter towards the center. A wavy grey couch wends its way around the outer rings and is so groovy that I can’t even…

Got a fresh snowfall this morning. Took a hike in a different conservation land.
A snow covered wooden bridge across a frozen stream in the woods. This is on the Bob Horton Loop Trail near the old quarry and lime kiln.

It is just a buncha rocks in the woods all covered in snow. Part of the old quarry on the Bob Horton Trail. It is just a buncha rocks in the woods all covered in snow.

I have a winter addiction and it’s baking bread.
A round and golden loaf of sourdough bread with a tree pattern on top.

This is an artificial mouth created by Japanese researchers. It uses artificial vocal cords, a trachea system, and a flexible silicone mouth that moves and shapes sound in real time.

It sounds so human-like!

Took a hike.
Footprints in snow along the frozen shoreline of the Watchusett Reservoir. The frozen shoreline of the Watchusett Reservoir. More of the frozen shoreline. A well hiked snowy trail in the woods.

Snow
The snow covered and winterized chicken coop got their morning delivery of warm water. Looking out as the sun rises on snow covered pines.

Merry Christmas Eve, all!
A Bayberry Candle
Burned to the socket
Brings Luck to the Household
Food to the Larder
And Gold to the Pocket.
The stockings are hung and my Bayberry candle is burning. I don’t think it will last until midnight this year. Same store and company but it’s smaller and I think the wax has changed. Mulling some wine in my simmer pot.

Took a walk today around the reservoir. Brrr!
Hastings Cove at the Wachusett Reservoir on Christmas Eve. The shoreline has a light dusting of snow. Hastings Cove at the Wachusett Reservoir on Christmas Eve. The shoreline has a light dusting of snow.

Felt like baking today. A kitchen witch am I!
I made a sour cherry pie. Hell yeah! Baked a loaf of sourdough for my neighbor. Made some sourdough buns for dinner. Got turkey burgers with smoked Gouda and caramelized onions from a local place : Bob’s turkey farm. These were delicious and doubly so with the fresh rolls!

Went out next door for dessert.
A s’mores martini and a gingerbread martini. Yum! What’s this? A second s’mores martini? Don’t mind if I do! The hubby was handed a second gingerbread martini. He’s lit.

A merry solstice to all!
My sourdough bread was delicious, even if my snowflake pattern needs work. A plate filled with summer sausage slices with Loewensenf hot mustard, my snowflake sourdough bread with baked Brie and sour cherry jam and sliced apples. Not pictured is the solstice mead to wash it down.

On the first night of winter, St. Nautilus flies through the air, pelting good children with candy and dousing the naughty ones in ink.

Cat tax too.
Lady Toranaga in all her royal majesty- feline perfection. Lady Purrasaki getting pampered with snuggles and chin skritches in my lap.

Had a great visit with my family this weekend.
The Insy Spider and her sister with a dapper pumpkin head fellow at Nora Lee’s in Old New Castle. Dad’s house, so spoopy! Dad chilling by the fire table. Read House gate in Old New Castle overlooking the Delaware River by moonlight.
