My Dad only ate peanut butter by first toasting his bread, slathering it with butter and then topping with peanut butter. The whole thing is crunchy, melty, and amazing and BANANA bread is the best this way. This lunch is for you Dad.
Working in the garden earlier today I heard a noise, looked up, and..
Trying to type around Miggy is a struggle because he sees your fingers moving and assumes you are bad at petting and need help and rubs his face all over the back of your hand. 🤦♀️ It's super sweet and super unhelpful.
Emma, Queen of the Universe, She Who Must Be Obeyed, Scolder of Dogs, who stole any food that wasn't fiercely guarded, & was dubbed Tiny Tiger by our pet sitter went to boss around the next life today. 😭 She was my little shadow.
Maine Coons are friendly, aggressively so. Miggy insists not only on touching me at all times (yes this is often inconvenient) but he needs to be center of attention. Want to lay on the couch with your laptop? Forget it, he WILL ooze it right off your lap, resistance if futile, give up and pet Mig.
The US: who needs English majors anyway?! This headline:
Pretty dang pleased w myself, a new PB and a very fun race.
I'm going to have to get vent covers that screw into the floor because SOMONE has decided pulling them out of the floor and trying to fit your whole body in the duct would be fun.
For the fountain pen peeps: Endless Pens (one of my favorite suppliers) is donating 50% of all Hatch & Inkfinity ink sales to the Trevor project this month. Do I need another bottle of ink? No. Did I buy one. Absolutely. ;)
Birthday week continues, made pizza: morel and bacon with fontina and gruyerr cheese and a little truffle hot sauce.
Really grateful to have the back deck safe to use again. 🥰
Day 3 of birthday week vacation, on my birthday, fishes!
Were you even in Detroit (or Michigan) if you didn't have some?
Took Mom and God-Mom to a Tiger's game last night. We won't talk about their performance but it was a lot of fun ANYWAY. 🤣⚾🧢🐯
In our house baking is on hard mode because this one is always waiting for a turned back, for even a second. She will steal butter, unbaked cookie dough, anything really. Batch of cookies didn't lose any today, success.
This face? In the second we had turned our backs on the cutting board of cut chicken on the counter she leapt, grabbed, and dashed. Fought off the dog and had that thing down the hatch before I could grab her by the scruff. She remains unrepentant. 🤦♀️
This book looks SO GOOD and Detroit style features strongly, as it should.
It drives me spouse NUTS that for me, Miggy's belly is not a trap, because for anyone else it very much is. He's a mamma's boy.
If you are having a bad day you can have a blanket of good boys.
My fellow perimenopasal-girlies who can't do caffeine: this shit is the bomb with some yummy flavored creamer I get to enjoy coffee again. So much better than all the decaf beans I've tried. Coffee snobs look away, this isn't for you.
