A Swedish quilt.

And "boro" cloth, made in Japan by the poor mainly from scraps of indigo-dyed cloth.

One day I will make a quilt.

The best part of waking up

Nope, not Folgers in your cup (gross)--a kitty on the pilla next to you!

She got up and started head butting me and purring . . . AWWW. Her name is Zucca and she is a rare female orange cat, with amber eyes! My sister is babysitting her.

For reals?

"Bobert"?

"Close enough!"

It's hard to make a pair of something when you don't use a pattern.

Luckily this is not the kind of thing that keeps me up at night.

Ronnybrook half-n-half

It's the best thing ever.

Put it in your cocoa every night (also: have cocoa every night).

Mystery

Why is the basil in the bathroom? And how did it get there?

Neither Greg nor I know...

Not responsible

Hand lettered.

On the first freezing cold night of the year

Eat spicy miso ramen!

It's winter today!

There are my mittens in the basket!

You can see the dry spot where the trash bags were and then how the trash collector dragged the bag to the curb.

Scrabble

I am kind of obsessed with it. I get REALLY frustrated when I have bad letters!!

Manhattan Avenue

If we had an outdoor space I would've taken these. A little scraping and coat of (red?) lacquer and they'd be perfect!

Greg even agrees.

More art like this, please

The subjectivity of the twenty-first-century cat is a topic sorely in need of exploration.

"This picture is awesome."

What is it

About seeing your mom's handwriting that is always so comforting?



It's just so mom-ish.

Alien fetus.

An old friend

Recently emerged from hiding (reverse hibernation?).

Haribo Teeth

I'm just saying--these things are awesome.

I like

This blog.

Crocheting and cat pictures!

Purr.

It's a known fact

Bears like to climb trees.

The last thing I want to do

Is discourage cinematic interpretations of eighteenth-century satirical novels.

However.

I do not enjoy Jack Black's crotch right outside my bedroom window.

Truck door

Written by a human.

Bananagrams

A powerful new force in my life.

Sunday morning

Contender

Worst company name ever?

Wanting

This hat.

Don't you love the color of the pompom?

Seasonal change

Well, we all know the signs of fall.

This means winter is here:

I got out the giant duvet!!!!

It's like sleeping in a big, soft, warm snowbank.

The good old hockey game!

New Jersey Devils versus Montreal Canadiens.

(Me versus hotdawg n fries!)

Made

Pumpkin pie.

The first pie crust was hard as a rock. But then I bought leaf lard and tried again! And it was delishus.

Thank you, whoever left these plastic bags in my bike basket

We will use them for the recycling.
