I’ve been absent lately thanks largely to the joys of home renovation but wanted to shout out these 2 excellent books that came out in the last week, both of which I loved, starting exciting new series by excellent humans @devinmadson.bsky.social & @andreagstewart.bsky.social Commend them to you!

Morrigan would like to help, but only if you can pls keep it to 25 minutes per day. Otherwise, she is sleeping.

Recite 80% of a movie and you get $500K. What movie are you picking?
(Been training for this for 35 years baby. 80%? Bah!)

I am under a hayfever cloud this morning and feeling miserable but here’s a pretty cake to brighten our collective mornings (I made this for friends last night and it’s seriously good)

In this, my favourite week of the year, we are accomplishing little but having the best time doing it. Here is a boy and his dog on a meander, and that’s about as busy as the day got

It’s not that I’m *spoiled* exactly it’s just that I’m living the lifestyle I deserve, Morrigan assures us

I reckon I have accidentally whacked my heel on a lazy breakfall conservatively at least 500 times in my life and have never managed a lasting injury from it but hey I like to challenge myself

Get up, you say? Before this fog lifts? Surely you jest.

What do you mean, I may not have more cheese?

A cold morning but worth getting my paws out of bed (eventually)

My kids and niblings made a cake but forgot to mix the egg in properly so someone found this tasty delight mid bite 😂
