Shelter?

Posted on November 30, 2011 by Kathy

It snowed here again today, kind of like the other weekend.  It all stuck to the roads, made driving treacherous, and looked really nice.  Now everything is covered in a nice, fluffy white blanket.  Too bad the roads are also … Continue reading →

Goofy

Posted on November 29, 2011 by Kathy

I went to the barn today with the intention of taking pictures of my kittens who always sit up on top of the milk tank.  The very top.  So, of course, since I wanted them to be there, they weren’t … Continue reading →

Outdoors

Posted on November 28, 2011 by Kathy

This unusually warm weather means that Oscar gets to go outside again during the day.  I am a fan of this, since it helps him get rid of some energy outside, which in turn means that he doesn’t hide behind … Continue reading →

Chocolate Awesomeness

Posted on November 27, 2011 by Kathy

That really is the only way to describe this cake.  We had a fundraising dinner for the camp that I attended when I was a kid, and my family volunteered to make the supper, so I said I would bring … Continue reading →

Posted on November 25, 2011 by Kathy

Spring?

Posted on November 24, 2011 by Kathy

After the blast of winter we had last week, this week has been much springier.  The snow is kind of melting, although it seems to be devolving into ice instead, which is not so fun.  Hopefully it stays warm enough … Continue reading →

Caramel Corn

Posted on November 23, 2011 by Kathy

It seems to be the time of year for snacking on sweet things.  Actually, I think that season starts with Halloween and doesn’t end until New Year’s.  We get candy on Halloween, and then (some) people start working on their … Continue reading →

Decorated

Posted on November 22, 2011 by Kathy

On Sunday night, my friend came over and helped me decorate those cookies from the other day.  It was fun, but also kind of hard.  Its hard to draw stuff onto little cookies with either a small icing tip, or … Continue reading →

Bonfire

Posted on November 21, 2011 by Kathy

After our dismal attempt at lighting our tree piles on fire last week, it was perfect weather again this morning to try again.  That straw pile is completely gone now, though, and one random tree pile smoldered for a long … Continue reading →
