Employee of the week. All buttons and magnets now come with the following notice “Warning. May include cat hair”

High hopes for Paolo tonight. #jeopardy

I am trying to put labels on catnip packets. I have a helper. Despite what she thinks, she really is not helping.

Doing button/magnet designs for the upcoming market season of Kat's Kitty Kit. It's not too risqué, is it?

It’s Thursday!! 💃🏻

Update: In Florida, you need a prescription from your physician to get the COVID vax. EVEN if you are over 65. So my immune compromised 83y.o. wife, who has had Covid twice, has to now schedule a visit with her PCP to get a prescription. 😡😡 So pardon me if I say f*ck DeSantis and his lapdog Ladapo.

Post a random picture or else everything will go bad in September. Looking forward to winter in Florida.

Which TV series have you rewatched more than once?📺💖

Does anyone else just float away when listening to The Flower Duet from Lakmé? I have a recording of Katherine Jenkins and Dame Kiri performing it. Bliss.

Today was a hard one. With Jean and I by her side, we said goodbye to our sweet baby girl, Tazmania Colton Klingerman, the love of our lives, who slipped away peacefully in my arms.

66 is good so far!!

An airport selfie in the spirit of @kriverswrites.bsky.social. A Blackberry Bramble at Grand Rapids.

We are on our way from St. Pete to Battle Creek Pride. Jean’s bff - since 1955! - is Grand Marshal of the parade. However, I’m having serious FOMO - #gcls2025

Just your average evening in a lesbian house. She’s watching a WNBA game; I’m reading a lesbian novel (Jones, Gerri Hill). Love our life.

Soo cute!!

When we got together, Jean gave me a pin that said "I did it right the first time." I sure did! Happy Birthday to my one and only.💖

OK, @karin.kallmaker.com. We did the thing this evening 🍸 Loved every minute, again.

Annual vet visit. They are so annoyed with me right now!! Stacked on top of each other behind cat tree at the vet’s office.

Happy 33rd Anniversary to us! It's been a wild ride!!

Tulip time!! Keukenhof Gardens, Netherlands.

A ‘Gloomy Sunday’ made for some moody windmill pics at Kinderdijk, Netherlands today. Cold and blustery, but very interesting visit.

We went to the Hands Off protest in St. Pete today. Unfortunately the heat was a bit overwhelming for us, but it was so inspiring to see so many people there. Organizers started with 4 street corners @100 each. By the time it started today, there were 20 street corners!!

Me in December: My beans aren’t germinating. I shall plant more seeds 😿😾 Me today: So many f’in beans. 🙀🙀

Love my FL Hydroponic garden this time of year. Everything is producing! I picked, blanched & froze 2 kinds of green beans, 2 kinds of yellow beans (10 single portions b/c Jean doesn’t eat them), then made fresh tomato soup with celery & basil from the garden + garlic & onion from the pantry.

Who are the five writers that made you? Jane Rule Katherine V. Forrest Karin Kallmaker @karin.kallmaker.com Richard Adams Cecil Dawkins

Does gardening make you feel connected to your foremothers? My mom & grandmother were wonderful gardeners. However these beans make me feel connected to all the generations of women who came before. They are called 1500 Year-Old Cave Beans. The seeds truly came from a cave in Mexico.

What to do with alllll those cherry tomatoes and thyme that is spilling out of the pot?? I chop the garlic and use honey instead of brown sugar. www.marthastewart.com/1106724/roas...

Age yourself with a movie you saw in the theater. The first movie we went to as a family, 1969. It changed my life in so many ways, not the least of which was falling in love with Barbra Streisand. I was 10.

A hidden surprise amongst the yellow pear cherry tomatoes today - a monarch chrysalis 🦋💖

I love this time of year in my Florida garden. BLTs and potato chips for dinner tonight.

Today is your last chance to get a jar of ReadOut Commemorative Catnip! It’s fresh, local, hydroponic - the best! @readout.bsky.social

If you're attending ReadOUT @readout.bsky.social this weekend, please be sure to stop by and say hello to us. We'll have a table with our hydroponically homegrown catnip & toys & Kitty Kits, along with some fun giveaways! @elleeire.bsky.social @georgiabeers.bsky.social @katenauthor.bsky.social

A beautiful sunset over the Gulf of Mexico, St. Pete Beach/Pass-a-Grill tonight. 😆 If you look closely, you'll see Venus in a couple of the shots.

It’s a banner day for the monarchs in my St Pete spring garden. Some fresh chrysalises, some that are ready to hatch, some that have just hatched, and so many flying around all over the place! Photo 4 taken just before I moved the caterpillar to a different leaf.

Watching “Gunpowder Milkshake” for the umpteenth time. Such a fun movie!! Plus Lena Headey, Carla Gugino, Angela Bassett, and Michelle Yeoh. 🔥🔥

I did a fun little exercise tonight - listened to 6 versions of “Send In the Clowns.” Judy Collins (the first one I ever heard, way back when), Elizabeth Taylor, Barbra Streisand, Susan Boyle,even Sondheim himself. Then Judi Dench. Full Stop. Judi Dench. Holy Wow!!

Venus and Saturn tonight!

How am I just finding out about this?!?

If you see this post, quote with a bridge from your gallery.

Sunning herself in my chilly Florida garden this afternoon.

A great list of folks to follow. You might be interested, Renee! @reneecossette.bsky.social

That time when you take the Worcestershire Sauce out of the fridge, give it a good shake, and it sprays all over the place because *someone* didn't snap the lid closed. Aaauuuggghhhh!! Rackin'-Frackin', Rassa'-Frassin' Then you realize that you're the only one who cooks.

We just watched the final episode of “Vera.” Absolutely perfect. 💋

If you go to Key West, don’t miss @itsrandyroberts.bsky.social at La Te Da. We’ve known Randy for more years than we can remember. We’ve seen him many times. His show is always fresh and new, always a little bit different each time, and always tremendously entertaining!

The #1 movie at the box office on your 10th birthday is how 2025 will turn out for you. Okay....

Y’all? Our dear friend, Randy Roberts, is doing the New Year’s Eve Shoe Drop in Key West tonight!! Should be able to see him on CNN’s coverage.

It’s time.

Went to the grocery store to get Mince Pie Filling. None. Zero, Zip. Zilch. Apparently Borden, the best/most popular maker, went bankrupt last year. Who knew? Somewhere along the way the product was rebranded as Nonesuch, but won't be ready until January???? Epic Fail. Might have to make my own!

Sigh. Why do I keep getting single, older men following my profile? Block, baby, block.
