Willow the goat has serious selfie game.
Willow the goat and I lean our heads together and look at the camera, with wispy clouds floating against a blue sky above us. Willow--with a white pelt, blue eyes, horns, and ears that stick strait out on either side of her head--seems to smile with sly look in her eye.

Excellent! I've started propagating willow cuttings just to FAFO. Who knows--maybe I'll take up basket weaving?
In a jumble of gardening pots, yellow and purple 9-inch slender sticks cut from willow branches have been planted in soil. Cheerful clumps of green leaves are sprouting from the base of the otherwise bare sticks.

The first 6-egg day of 2025 has arrived! I have wealth beyond measure.
Six sunlit eggs are nestled in a small woven basket--one dark brown, one light brown with dark speckles, two rosy beige, one light blue, and one light green.

Here's the response from Mike Ware (Chairperson of the Council of the Inspectors General on Integrity & Efficiency) after receiving Sergio Gor's notice that the Inspectors General positions were terminated. This screenshot of Ware's response has punctuated alt text for those using screen readers.
A message on letterhead from COUNCIL OF THE INSPECTORS GENERAL ON INTEGRITY AND EFFICIENCY. January 24, 2025. To: Mr. Sergio Gor, Director of Presidential Personnel, The White House. Dear Mr. Gor: I am writing in response to your email sent to me and other Inspectors General earlier this evening wherein you informed each of us that "due to changing priorities, your position as Inspector General ... is terminated, effective immediately." As Chairperson of the Council of the Inspectors General on Integrity and Efficiency (CIGIE), I recommend that you reach out to White House Counsel to discuss your intended course of action. At this point, we do not believe the actions taken are legally sufficient to dismiss Presidentially Appointed, Senate Confirmed Inspectors General. Specifically, based upon the 2022 amendments to the Inspector General Act of 1978, the President must notify Congress 30 days prior to removal of an IG and provide "substantive rationale, including detailed and case-specific reasons" for such removal. 5 U.S.C. § 403(b), as amended by the section 5202(a) of the Securing Inspector General Independence Act of 2022 (Title LII, Subtitle A, of P.L. 117-263, 136 Stat. 2395, 3222). The requirement to provide the substantive rationale, including detailed and case specific reasons, was added to better enable Congress to engage on and respond to a proposed removal of an Inspector General in order to protect the independence of Inspectors General. Should you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to me at Hannibal.Ware@sba.gov. Sincerely, Hannibal "Mike" Ware, CIGIE Chairperson. CC: Rand Paul, Chairman, Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs. Gary Peters, Ranking Member, Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs. James Comer, Chairman, House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform. Gerald Connolly, Ranking Member, House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform.

I made a bunch of these stickers, too, on my Cricut. I'm in a mood.
A meme/graphic in which a hand holds aloft an ignited molotov cocktail in mid-throw. In the top left corner in ornate flowing cursive is written, "When there's not enough light in the world..." In the bottom right corner in rough all-caps is written, "BE THE ONE WHO MAKES SOME."

HOLIDAY PSA #592: I am sharing last year's tragedy in the hopes that others will learn and not have to suffer as I did. Gingerbread cookies were NEVER meant to taste like mustard. DOUBLE CHECK YOUR SPICE JAR LABELS BEFORE COMMITTING TWO STICKS OF BUTTER TO A RECIPE. #NeverForget
In my hand: a small bottle of ground mustard. On the label in red marker, the words "Ground Mustard" have been underlined and called out with arrows. Scrawled across the top in red are the words "NOT GINGER." The yellow ground mustard in the bottle resembles all too closely ground ginger.

Thank you for this valuable reminder!

I do indeed have a rock (or four). They have been in the pocket of my work bag for a while now, and I can't remember where I found them or when I put them there.

Why do I like them?
THEY ARE ROCKS.
In my hand are 4 rocks: 2 with alternating narrow horizontal bands of gray, orange and white, and 2 with rougher edges and a milky quartz color.

Two! TWO chickens who lay blue eggs! AH-AH-AH!
A view from above of two smooth blue chicken eggs cradled in my hand, with my bare feet and tiled floor blurred below.
