Just shy of 9 am on this Sunday morning and I'm making brownies.
Just regular ones. My job has rules against the "enhanced" brownies.

It has been so freaking chaotic at work the last few days that I tried to sign on to my computer a minute ago and I forgot the password I've been using for three years.
Anyway, it's snowing in Fredericksburg so the commute home will be fun.

Behold Pengu. I saw him at a thrift store yesterday. Had to have him, even though I'm an owl gal and not a penguin gal. He got stuffed in the bag with my boys' purchases & my daughter found him and asked if she could have him. Of course I said yes. He's a Jellycat plush.

Good morning, Skykin. I have work today so at least I'll be productively preoccupied on this horrible day. Take care of yourselves and focus on Dr. King.

It is 38° with rain showers. The temps will drop later, which means the wet will freeze and then we are expecting it to change to snow. Hmm, snow over ice - no way that'll be dangerous, right?
I do work tomorrow so the commute should be fun. Be safe out there my DC-area peeps!

I just created a profile on Red Note Xiaohongshu. The Chinese people have really embraced the TikTok refugees.
Regardless of what happens to TT, I plan to keep my Red Note active until the 🍊🤡 maybe gets jealous and bans it.
I am Lame Owl Nancy over there with this owl as my avatar.

I'm not a big TT user but I have enjoyed the content there. This sucks and the Cheeto traitor about to get credit for bringing it back sucks more.

Gotta get in a #Caturday post before the day ends. This is Lady. My partner rescued her as an abandoned kitten from a feral colony behind his work. She is a diva, an adorable gremlin. Her purr can be heard across the room. Her fur is very fine and silky soft. She makes wonderful biscuits.

Dinner is served. Salmon from the air fryer, rice, and okra. My tummy is happy.

Dinner will be salmon with sauteed okra over rice, and maybe some corn on the cob or broccoli, depending on my mood.
I think I got all my to-ing and fro-ing done for the week so I'm going to hunker down and enjoy the rest of the weekend at home.

Got to play with some airplane parts today. I'm in sales so I don't get to do it often. Had some OT offered to help the warehouse receive in several crates of parts, from tiny rivets to pieces of the fuselage.
Many hands made light work. And coffee and donuts helped, too.

Making some chai. I'm lucky to live in an area with a diverse population so I can find larger quantities of spices at the stores that cater to non-Eurocentric cooks. Spices are fresh & less expensive than at the regular grocery store. The frozen cubes are ginger & turmeric.

Good morning Skykin. I made coffee and was going to sit in my favorite chair to enjoy while doom scrolling, but I found said chair occupied by a chunky void.
Guess I'll have to use my backup chair because he has no intention of moving.

Two years between visits was too long. Good food and lots of it, good conversation, great waitperson.

I am adulting like a mofo here. Had a healthy smoothie. Got my eyes examined. Went thru the car wash to get the worst of the road salt off the car. Ordered glasses from Zenni.
About to take my sweetie out to brinner at Waffle House cause he's worth it. Last visit was in 2023 so we're overdue 😬🥓♥️.

The tradition of making snow ice cream is upheld.
Fluffy snow, milk, sugar and a dash of vanilla.

6 inches of snow on the ground. Juncos and chickadees are now heading to the feeder along with a pair of cardinals.

I hope everyone affected by the storm stays safe.

Heating up a round of zaatar-covered pita bread that I baked and froze the other day. A lovely snack to celebrate the fact that work is closed with no remote work required for tomorrow. Snow hasn't started yet but we're ready for it.

We have made it to Squirrel Level Road on our way to Blackstone. Sadly, I did not see any squirrels, level or otherwise. 🐿️
