@nikostratis.com I don't really know how this BlueSky thing works yet, but hopefully this finds you - so excited to get this pre-order in the mail today!

Raised beds are built. Left room for more container veggies, flowers, a key compost pilot and a greenhouse with this design... And look at that coop/run coming along behind the shed!

Found out today that BABs, who found us 18 months or so ago when he was about a year old, has a heart murmur. Common in Siamese cats, but usually when they are older. We are taking reasonable and appropriate next steps for this goofball (who will likely outlive us all).

Maybe not the *best* rainy day project, but they won't build themselves. (Yet.)

So glad I renewed my subscription to the news outlet that refers to weather as a "cold blob of air." Can't wait to see what other stellar journalism comes my way!
After a half-month hiatus, frigid air will again surge across the United States beginning this weekend through next week, as the unusually cold blob of air dips southward, covering various parts of the country by Tuesday.

Yesterday's neighborhood walk #11. Every time I do this, I wonder when the road is going to slide off into the slough. ("When the road is going to slouff?")

BABs brought a friend home for lunch today.

I just tried this with google search... it works AND it made me laugh. Win/win.

Look at that smile...

Neighborhood walk #6. I really like this-grass lined fence... and the fact that this field is about to become a temporary lake.

"Let's distract ourselves and play 80s Trivial Pursuit and see what crazy Reagan questions come up..." TREES. The answer was trees. So there's that.

And I don't recall the madam in the question, but let the record show, that is good advice for anyone, anytime.

One of our favorite breakfasts from traveling, that we still prepare regularly... Glad to see Cooks Illustrated gets it.

Blue sky, blue slough.
