Weekend Wandering
As expected, the weekend included lots of laying low and keeping cozy. I started the snowy Saturday off with this delicious, healthy, and easy breakfast of quinoa, edamame, egg, and avocado. Bella and I decided to brave the elements to enjoy a scenic walk and expend some energy. Fetch was played. Sticks were chewed. And…

Have a Wonderful Weekend
What are you up to this weekend? I have/had grand plans of taking Bella to Mardi Growl to let her strut her stuff, but the weather forecast is awfully dismal (29 and snowy), so snuggling up in bed may be a better option… But I am very very excited for my good friend Cathy to visit…

Alas, what is a travel experience without a few bumps in the road…

And we’re back…
So I have this knack for starting things and then just… stopping. Even things that I love, I end up getting distracted and just aimlessly wandering on to the next project. My loved ones can tell you it’s a really wonderful trait, as they so enjoy when I stop in the middle of a project…

March Madness / Sunday Supper
Yesterday was a true March day. You know that saying about March – “in like a lion, out like a lamb”? Well that’s pretty much how yesterday went. I woke up about 9:00 am yesterday morning to this: You probably can’t tell a lot from the picture. That’s because I was battling 40+ MPH winds…
