Mr. Owl came back to visit this morning. #owls #naturephoto #photography #nature #photo #vermont

This beautiful owl flew by our sunroom and landed gracefully on the tree branch closest to us. They are such amazing creatures! 🦉 #owls #naturephoto #photography #nature #photo #vermont

Another cozy, snowy evening. #vermont #snow

Happy Tuesday from Manny!! I’ve never had a dog who loves to sleep and hang out under covers more this boy. #yorkie #dogsky #dogsofbluesky

Wanted something cozy for dinner. Threw together a pasta sauce with tomatoes, mushrooms, roasted garlic, & onions. Let it simmer for a few hours, then added red pepper flake, a touch of cream & pasta water. Topped with parm and a fancy olive oil from Italy. Perfect for a cold evening. #cooking

Manny’s #barkbox lobster toy is as big as he is… he carries it around like it’s his bitch. #dogsofbluesky #yorkie #dogsky

Diving into this book starting tomorrow. Gonna read and absorb it nice and slowly. May it reach deep into my soul and bones. #reading #books

It seems my “ignore everything in the world & watch competition food shows forever on end” isn’t going away soon. My “to watch” list is only growing. I’m currently watching Out Chef’d on Food Network. I’m digging it. I like Eddie Jackson as a host… not loud and obnoxious and has good energy.

Grooming is done and he looks so handsome. He was a ragamuffin before getting a bath and clipped. I see where I missed a spot on the left ear tip. Oh, well… Touch-ups later. For now, it’s playtime! #dogsofbluesky #yorkiesofbluesky #yorkie

Outside doing some coop/run chores before the snow rolls in. And, of course, Cocoa had to jump on my shoulders to make it a little more fun. Her and her sister, Brownie, are my most social hens. I love them to pieces… along with all the others. #chickens #backyardchickens

Me: I pointed that out a few days ago. Husband: Well… that’s was a great idea you gave me to point out. Mmhmmm…. 😉

Manny’s so excited about his latest BarkBox toy. #dogsky #barkbox #dogsofbluesky #yorkies #yorkie

Living in a snow globe today and loving it. #vermontliving #vermont #snow

I’ve watched ZERO news since the election & it’s been a life saver. I’m so grateful I live in the woods & can tune out as much as I want to. I’m practically a recluse (with minor exceptions) and I’m 1000% okay with that. I absolutely hate where we are and how we got here. Stay safe out there!

Who’s my snuggle bug? Manny, you are! You are the snuggliest. #dogsky #dogsofbluesky #yorkie

It’s super freaking cold, which means potty time and a rush to be fireside. #dogsky #yorkies #dogsofbluesky

If you haz socks, I will take them and they will forever be mine!!!

@lisamgottwrites.bsky.social Lisa!!!!! Hey!!!

“Mom, I know you’re not feeling well today, but I brought you your sock so you can take me out.” #dogsky #dogsofbluesky #yorkie

Someone’s super cozy and adorable. #dogsky #yorkie #dogsofbluesky

Recovering from cooking all the food, eating all the food, drinking more than usual, and being the hostess w/ the mostest for 7 days. I feel like a mack truck has hit me. Thankfully, the w/e is here & I can do absolutely nothing ‘til Monday. Then, it’s back to regular scheduled programming. Whew.

Do people who smack and eat with their mouth open not realize how damn annoying they are? I’m about to jump out of my skin as we watch a movie. All I want to do is yell, “STOP SMACKING YOUR FOOD!!” It’s either that or I’m gonna go check on the chickens until they finish their snack. #Misophonia

In my happy place. #cooking #happyplace.
