Science Nerd that swears a LOT w/degrees in biochem, nursing. Our home is a bit of a zoo, with the cats and dog. Mom of a grown adult & unsure how that happened. Raised in Northern WI, but now a proud Minnesotan who’s often too direct for the locals.

Three panels of screens from the Simpsons. 1: Lisa, with a panicked look, pulling an unconscious Bart in a wagon toward their parents' room, says, "A single nuclear warhead, of unknown origin, is heading toward the U.S. mainland." 2: Homer and Marge rise up in bed with looks of terror on their faces. 3: BART continues, with a big smile, "In Kathryn Bigelow's new Netflix film. It's an unnerving scenario - but it's also thrilling to watch!"

This pan is 12 inches across and it still isn’t big enough to comfortably stir-fry the amount of veggies I want.
A large stainless steel pan with cut up zucchini, onions, and various colors of bell peppers.

A nor’easter will hit the East Coast this weekend. Now is the time to prepare. If you own a portable generator, make sure your carbon monoxide (CO) alarms are working. CO from portable generators can kill in minutes. Make sure your flashlights have fresh batteries. www.cnn.com/2025/10/10/w...

I love it when cooler weather arrives, so I can go all-in on roasting my veggies.
Roasted red and green bell peppers and cauliflower topped tossed with olive oil, kosher salt, and smoked paprika.

For #ThingThursday I have this neat wooden box that we found while clearing point Great Uncle’s home 30 years ago. I believe it would have been a display box for a salesperson, as there are rows inside for seed packets.
A wooden box that says Manneville triple tested flower seeds.

I am continually amazed how many of my patients are completely oblivious to what’s going on in the world/the US. Like, zero clue. I don’t understand how they live their lives to be like that.
