Blue Jay party outside the window. They like the peanuts we put out.

Pro tip: if you forget a copper-bottom saucepan on the stove while boiling water, and it scorches, mind how you pick it up. You don't want melted solder on your feet.
A steel kitchen sink with a metal pot in it. There are hardened puddles of silver-colored solder in the basin.

Getting this Rossy portrait of my cats printed and framed!
Hand drawn colored portrait of two grey tabby cats as adventurers on a textured cream paper background. They are standing side by side. On the left is Serena as a chunky armored knight with sword and shield. Her expression is grumpy/suspicious with narrowed eyes. On the right is Duchess in a pink dress with a wizard's staff. The staff is tall and thin with a smooth pink orb at the top. Her eyes are wide and she seems a bit worried

Oh man, you gotta trust me on this one but the March Upcountry series rules so hard. This cover makes perfect sense if you imagine the artist was given a plot summary and zero visual reference:
A book cover for March Upcountry by David Weber and John Ringo. Strap in cause it's a doozy. The illustration is an action shot of 4 white people looking left. Most of the image is a large, dinosaur-like reptilian quadruped wearing a harness and saddle. On his back, a white guy is firing an enormous hunting rifle. A huge plume of smoke extends farther from the barrel than the gun is long, and there's a smoke ring around the tip. In the foreground, a white woman in form fitting silver armor with gun barrels attached to the forearms is prancing. Her right arm is raised as if taking aim, and she's standing on her right foot with her left leg raised behind her like a ballerina landing from a leap. Behind the dinosaur on the left side of the cover, two more generic white people, a man and a woman, are wearing camo clothes and holding futuristic guns. The man is holding up a triangular pennant with a blue circle on it.

Red-bellied and Downy Woodpeckers taking turns on the suet feeder this morning

A Downy Woodpecker clinging to the side of an icy suet feeder. He has the typical black and white striped face with small red patch on the back of the head, and is much smaller than the Red-bellied variety

Winter means finding a vent to camp out on

AT-AT pose!
A tabby cat lying on a gray couch. She's slumped on all fours with her belly and chin both on the couch, forming a shallow triangle shape like a downed AT-AT.

She knows exactly one thing, and she's not telling.

Taking down the Christmas decorations means putting Breedable Twink Elf back in the box for another year.

Possibly my favorite thrift store find ever.
A ceramic figurine of an elf approximately 3 inches tall. The elf is kneeling with his hands behind him on his butt. His body and clothing is turquoise blue, his face is white, with red rosy cheeks and black hair, and his pointed cap is red. He has long painted eyelashes and is looking off to the side. A rear shot of the kneeling elf. Between his hands, right in the center of his butt is a greedy little hole.

Remembering being stuck in the quarantine barracks when we arrived in Korea. Our cat literally climbed the walls.
A tabby cat climbing a fabric covered wall in a mostly bare room. The upper two thirds of the entire wall are covered in a carpeted material similar to cubicle walls, suitable for push pins.
