.
It won’t take long, I promise.
.
.
That’s an easy one.
I’d trade places with any cat who ever lived with us.
.
.
They’re loved.
(Frank)
.
.
Well fed.
(Mr. White)
.
.
Spoiled.
(Bubba)
.
.
And indulged.
(Cracker)
.
.
They also have two human servants who cater to their every whim.
(Lord Dudley Mountcatten)
So yes, I’ll say our cat.
❤️
How about you?
What animal would you trade lives with….
.
.
Yes, hope springs eternal and I tried another Facebook recipe.
.
.
This time it was a shrimp and corn chowder.
.
.
Southwest style and even though it only had 1 teaspoon of cayenne pepper …
.
.
It proved too spicy for my born and bred New England husband.
.
.
I had jumbo shrimp and chopped them to bite size.
.
.
It’s an easy recipe, and I quite liked it.
.
.
Though even with the dissolved gelatin, I thought it too thin to qualify as chowder.
.
.
If I make it again, which is unlikely because of the husband’s bland and boring taste buds, I’d add another thickening agent.
.
.
I saw this the other day and had a flashback to my childhood in New Jersey.
.
.
The hand came to life and snatched the letters one by one into the bloody swamp.
Epic. And I was there for it every week.
.
.
For those of you, who like me… comb the beaches.
.
.
My husband has recently decided the wood has to leave the woodshed, the interior wall on the right separating the shed from a storage room needs to be removed and a floor needs to be laid.
I do not expect this project to go quickly or smoothly. Stay tuned.
.
.
Red door.
Since I plan on living more than 3 years. Duh.
.
.
If a cheese fortune teller is paid in cheese? I have the perfect scarf and earrings for the job, sign me up.
😊
.
.
Temperatures are warming during the day, our grass is finally green and the fox are back.
.
.
I say foxy lady in the title, but to be honest I’m not sure.
.
.
Sexing a fox requires getting up close and personal… and that I can not do.
.
.
But I can watch from afar and take pictures.
.
.
With Lord Dudley Mountcatten on high alert beside me.
.
.
Because male or female, it’s still a canine… and His Lordship is not a fan.
😉
.
.
On the recommendation of a friend, I’m enjoying this first series even though I thought I wouldn’t.
.
.
It’s quirky with some interesting characters and proves having it all isn’t what it’s cracked up to be.
.
.
Season two of the fungus among us… and I’m all in. Not being familiar with the game, I admit episode two was a shock.
.
.
Sugar started out as a private detective show with an homage to old Hollywood glamour and noir. A missing girl, family scandals, sex trafficking bad guys… and then.
The weirdest most unexpected twist I never saw coming.
.
.
This Apple original series was phenomenal. Set in WWII occupied France it tells the story of Christian Dior and his French resistance fighting sister as well as the self serving Nazi collaborating Coco Chanel. Fashion, family, the horrors of war, the resilience of the human spirit,… it’s beautifully set, well acted and depicts a part of history I never gave much thought to before.
Color me impressed.
.
.
Because the news you can use is too depressing these days.
.
.
He’s the devil.
I think that’s a given.
.
.
Uh oh.
We just ordered a new one.
.
.
Honestly, I try not to think about Elon Musk at all.
.
.
Apparently he’s been paying some of the mothers of his children 15 million up front and $100,000 a month not to speak of them. One woman refused and gave up what amounts to $36,600,000 over 18 years to tell the truth.
.
.
It’s evil, but we love it.
.
.
Whaaaat?
.
.
And now you know.
.
.
This made me snort, but the fact that Amazon refunded her the $4,000 and let her keep the lollies tells me Junior may be doing it again.
.
.
Remember the improved box cake mix recipe?
.
.
I tried it with butter pecan.
.
.
And while the cake didn’t seem to rise quite as high as it normally does …
.
.
My husband raved about the texture and proceeded to eat 3/4’s of it.
Honestly? I didn’t notice much of a difference.
.
.
I’m so sick of this AI generated nonsense.
.
.
As if.
.
.
This is a real cat.
.
.
Who jumps up to sleep on the spare bed pillows….
.
.
And is too lazy to shift when he slides down between the shams.
.
.
I found some old military photos when I was cleaning out a drawer the other day. That’s my husband in Beirut, with the remnants of the bombed Marine barracks behind him. He removed the bodies of six Marines from the wreckage on that horrible day.
.
.
Welcoming my guy home after a six month Med float in 1988.
Damn, we were young.
.
.
And talk about young.
My husband, right before he went to Vietnam.
❤️

The deer are used to sharing the backyard spread with skunks.
.
.
But lately a trash panda is beating the stinky little critters to the buffet.
.
.
I’m thrilled because while we have nightly raccoons…
.
.
They rarely show up before it’s too dark to get a photo.
.
.
And though I’m tickled with the little masked bandits…
.
.
The deer don’t know what to make of him.
.
.
Especially when raccoon #2 waddles in.
.
.
Proving two raccoons is two too many.
🤣
.
.
You know you want to.
.
.
🦥
.
I’m currently kicked back on the couch with a good book and a cup of tea. I’m lazy and have no plans to move for the next hour…. so I’m going with sloth.
How about you?
Animal emoji your mood.
.
.
Simply because they’re fun.
.

Evelyn?
The last Evelyn I knew in Maine died 30 years ago, at the ripe old age of 89.
.
.
To the clearly parched western states, I’m sorry.
.
.
I agree with this 100%.
Maine is full of Frenchmen.
.
.
Maine men seem to be to satisfied with their packages. Southern men, not so much.
.
.
It doesn’t surprise me Maine is on par with California. Our taxes are nuts.
.
.
I can’t believe Maine didn’t vote for Roosevelt!
.
.
I can’t believe Maine voted for Nixon!
.
.
This map is disturbing.
That being said, I’m proud to live in a state who fully supported civil rights.

River's world.....
