I am enjoying the extra hour this weekend for much needed downtime and taking in fall sunsets and scenes. Miko has been enjoying warm snuggle time on laps and his many, many blankets and beds all over the house because he is not a happy camper unless he has a comfy landing spot in every […]
Fall Fun Times for the List
Happy Halloween! Have any fun plans? We’re handing out candy, recipe experimenting, and drinking wine – not a bad way to spend it. Fall is in full swing here and it’s gorgeous with rain, turning leaves, and greenery returning after last weekend’s massive rain storm. A few weeks ago I snapped a pic of an […]
Celebrating with Great Eats
Hello and happy Friday eve! I’m ready and ready for the smoke to go away! Things are still pretty smokey here, the morning and evening dog walks are gloomy.
