This is our snow since Saturday - two winter storms. But it's Michigan, in winter, with lake effect snow.
A deck with 6+ inches of snow on the top railing & halfway up the supporting railings. More snow on railings and a deck, but with a trail where a dog has plowed through the snow.

It was an excellent reading month! Traveling by myself AND a 4-day weekend offered tons of reading time- and I took it! 💙📚 #Booksky

3. In the meantime, here's a quick tip that many customers find helpful: try tucking the waistband under a good strong bra. Sometimes this is all that's needed to keep it secure and staying up.

Last night GC text to my office peeps: St. Andrew's bank holiday is tomorrow. We should observe it & stay home! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Today: no network for our office (state-run v the rest of the building that is county-run) the entire day = unable to do a single thing.

Me: ALBA GU BRÀTH!
Also me: we needed whisky!

The reporting in the NY Post is making me want to grade THEM! It's not "nitpicking" - it's grading the validity of an argument, and the fact that there's a "slew" of contradictions means those critiques are valid. 🤬

When you decide less than two hours before dinner that you want pizza... you give the pizza flour & bread flour (that was bought last week b/c AP was gone) mix a bit of an extra yeast boost and go with it. I am not displeased at all! 🍕 #Yummy #Pizza #Wine
A mushroom pizza covered with cheese sits on a baking stone. There is nicely puffed, golden crust around the entire pizza.

Perfect first night of holiday despite the blowing snow & winter weather warnings. No driving needed, made a creamy mushroom barley soup for supper & the rest of the evening has been spent like this w/a Caorunn gin & tonic.

We're celebrating a coworker's b-day tomorrow, so I made oatmeal raisin cookies for the first time in my life. Then, for hubs & me, I made oatmeal cookies w/chocolate and cinnamon chips. Think Mexican hot chocolate. 😋 Not too bad for a first try! #Baking #NoRaisinsPlease
Oatmeal cookies with chocolate & cinnamon chips sit on parchment paper in rows to cool.
