Well, most of what I intended to get done today, happened. Plus, some unplanned stuff got done. 🙂 There was quite the crowd around for breakfast - and not all of them are in this photo! Most of them came out of the cat shelter, which was quite gratifying to see. They were hungry enough … Continue reading Almost to plan

Thanksgiving lunch, mulch experiment and outside kitten progress
Lats this morning I headed over to my mother's place with a turkey dinner to have lunch with her. On the way out, I spotted three sets of ears in the window of the cat shelter. Tiny sets of years belonging to the little kittens! I didn't dare go closer for a picture, though, because … Continue reading Thanksgiving lunch, mulch experiment and outside kitten progress

Got a new toy, and dealing with unexpected issues
"Only" 10 yard cats showed up for breakfast. 🙂 This morning, after doing my rounds and feeding the felines, I headed into town to run a few errands. This included stopping at the post office in our little hamlet. Which is also a liquor store. I bought a whole lot of wine. Or, should I … Continue reading Got a new toy, and dealing with unexpected issues

Forgot about that…
Yesterday, while working on the squash beds, I was thinking ahead to working on the beet and carrot beds today. Braveheart (front) and Nostrildamus (rear) both allow me to pet them, and even skritch their ears now - but only after I've provided them with kibble in the morning! Forgetting completely that today was our … Continue reading Forgot about that…

More deer damage, and a medical update
We had a really hot day today, so when things cooled down enough, I went out to water the garden plots and sunflowers. Which is when I found this. All the leaves on one side of this one have been eaten! This is the first of the large sunflowers that has had this kind of … Continue reading More deer damage, and a medical update

I see four
Before heading into town, I paused to say hello to the mamas. Butterscotch was content to stay in her cave and just stick her head out every now and then to accept scritches, purring away. The opening is not that big, and it's dark in that old radio, so I tried the technological method. Sticking … Continue reading I see four

If you're looking for information on making a sourdough starter, or trying some of the recipes we've been using, that's where you'll find quick links to all the relevant posts. There's a reason I've … Continue reading Let’s talk about yeast

Cat company and good news
This morning, I had the boys keeping me company as I did my rounds. They do love that post! 😀 It's one of their favorite things to climb and scratch when they follow me. Later, I hear meowing from another direction and eventually spotted Butterscotch making her way through the trees. With some difficulty. She … Continue reading Cat company and good news

Are you staying home?
So... I did a bit of shoveling when I headed out to do my rounds this morning. There is no drifting in front of the house, so the depth of snow you're seeing is what fell. I figure it's about 6-7 inches. There is still a light snowfall as I write this. We've got winds … Continue reading Are you staying home?
