Goodnight. 🖼️ Palace of the Snow Queen, Hermann Wöhler, 1942.

A beautiful morning bus stop sight. The photo didn’t capture it well enough though. #TinyJoys

Managed a couple of hours un-homebound today, which included a piece of delicious gluten-free lemon drizzle cake. #TinyJoys

I made “turning point” apple crisp and cream for book club, partly to remind myself to ask the question, “what do you think is the turning point of the book?” Because George Orwell and I have different opinions. 😂 Now I get to eat the leftovers. 📚 #booksky #tinyjoys

My first daffodils of the year #TinyJoys

#TinyJoys Be more Theo 😴

Oh, to be a cat with a box #tinyjoys

Decided spring has sprung after a mild sunny day yesterday and have just planted spring flowers in the pots. Our little garden desperately needed tidying and cheering up #TinyJoys

#TinyJoys My plum and redbud trees are budding out, and even my Fuyu persimmon is starting to green and swell.

Mid-morning pizza with olive oil, feta, homemade tomato pesto. When you’re old and you live alone they just let you do it. 🍽️🍜 #breadsky

The Mayor of Funkley is my favorite Thomas Hardy novel

Enjoy some light biscuit making by Binx. 😻 #cats

... in a "strongly worded" letter? JFC, they need to do it from an airport. With traffic controllers. And pilots. DO I HAVE TO PRODUCE THIS FOR YA? @schumer.senate.gov

For #Caturday, a portrait of a cat feeling her feelings (ennui).

The people now feverishly working to erase the government structure aren't just a rag tag bunch of youngsters. They're well connected from former leaders in those organizations, to former and future SCOTUS law clerks to personal friends of the Trump family. projects.propublica.org/elon-musk-do...

Happy Tuesday! From last week’s walk. #nature #photography

Beautiful Remy ❤️❤️❤️ #greatpyrenees #nountaindog #pencildrawing #drawing #dog #art #traditionalart #etsy #crafts

It's cold again, a little ice expected mid week. So, it's comfort food on the menu, ftw 🍽👩‍🍳🍴🌶 www.isabeleats.com/carne-en-su-...

🌱🌤️ Some clouds earlier this morning.

It seems to be Maine Coon Tabby Tuesday in my stream, so here's Artemis The Cat.

You have to plan these out carefully because you only sleep at home every other night

I am not sure when I started “plating” Olga’s food by sprinkling kibble on her wet food, but I have been reliably informed it’s weird. 🍜🍽️

My city knows how to have fun.

#TinyJoys - a wonderfully defined sky/cloud-line when I was out walking earlier. What has made you smile today?

Very pleased to have managed to fit in (most of) a whole research day today. #TinyJoys The fluffy research assistant has been demonstrating her typical levels of helpfulness.

The world may be on fire, my country may be undergoing a strange coup, but at least I have a fluffy black cat to snuggle? #tinyjoys

Angel lived for only a year. She lived her best life sleeping (and snoring) every night between us. She succumbed to liver cancer at 23.  My hope is that I can communicate that hope, and redemption are possible even for a cat that is equal to 108 human years. Next a discussion of the costs. /6

Whaddaya mean it’s “morning”? whatever

A hellebore close-up from mid March of last year. I’m waiting patiently for spring! My garden is still snow covered! #ThrowbackThursday #Flowers #Bloomscrolling #FlowerFeed 🌱 #Nature #Beauty

Neighborhood crime: A squirrel stashed some nuts in a planter we have out but aren't using. Jay shows up, steals nut from planter. Squirrel shows up, checks planter, looks furious. The jay stole the squirrel's *last nut*.
