Sure sign of #Spring in western NY 🤣. I’ve opened my insulated curtains to let the sun in and Sam the #Cat was immediately pulled into the toasty napping spot 😊 #catsky #blackcat #witchsky #pagansky

Sometimes when you go used book shopping you stumble across fun new #stickers #FDT #resist #LGBTQIA+

My first true sign of #Spring. I thought that this was some variant of #LambsEar because the leaves have a gentle soft fuzz on them … but lately I’m wondering if it’s actually a #mullein ? What say you #Gardensky #plantidentification

Open Book Chocolates …. Chocolates based on classic #literature …. sounds very cute. Might see if I can order a couple bars to share at family dinner night 🍫 The Great Gatsby bar has a combination of mint julep & dark chocolate. That sounds pretty darn enticing. #SmallBusiness #womenowned

How it started .. How it’s going … #frugal #chicken #LegQuarters #Tenderloin #Tulips #Wings #homebutcher #easy

Weather is rainy and gross but I don’t care - about to become hot soup in this wood burning #hottub #weekendvacation #WNY #Sodus,NY

I’m not interested in a big oceanic #cruise … but a small scale luxury river boat trip has me intrigued z To see Europe by its riverways sounds right up my alley . #vacation #rivercruise #Europe #Italy #France #Portugal #Spain #Sweden #Norway #Finland #Denmark #Poland

October 2019 Didn’t age well …. #trumpisaliar #fdt #resist

Meal prep for the next couple nights : Bean & Cheese #Enchiladas in green sauce with extra tomatillos thrown in for good measure. I like the top extra browned and cheesy . #foodsky #dinner

It’s 3 AM and the wind is absolutely rattling the windows. March comes in like a lion goes out like a lamb , true indeed. Of course it’s snowed again this evening. It will be #spring by technicality only in about a week in #WNY It was a lovely mid-60 just days ago 😆. Come back sunshine !☀️

For my fellow #garden folks in zone #6a and #6b Be on the lookout for the invasive #bug with the smooth shoulders ! Leave our friendly pointy shoulder bugs to fight the good fight outside :) #bugsky #gardening

. In the spirit of Gilead, I shall henceforth refer to the United States as... Ofisrael. Blessed be the rebranding. May the files open. .

Over the hump of this terrible ,awful, no good #RSV - living in my highly humidified room mostly so o can continue to breathe a little easier. Not well enough 2 do much , but can work from home , sleep, heat up chicken broth or eggs , & listen to #NoSleepPodcast. And start a new book 📚 #Booksky

We have 1.3 million active duty members in our US military ….. people who are talking about a possible draft are perhaps in error .

First Kansas, now Indiana is running full speed anti-trans 🤬🤬🤬

RSV has got me in a death match 😣 Wash your hands friends - and don’t breathe other peoples air 😄😅

Love this ! Please bring some of that older flair back !

Yap. Skedaddle. Diabolical. Though the heyday for these words may have been over a century ago, they are now having a resurgence. For example, Henry David Thoreau’s 19th-century coinage, “brain-rot,” is now the ruin of modern minds.

This is about political retribution. Trump is weaponizing the federal government to punish states like Minnesota that didn’t vote for him — ripping away funds from pregnant women, seniors, and people with disabilities. You don’t fight “fraud” by hurting the most vulnerable.

Wall Street Journal has confirmed that Americans are leaving the US in record numbers. Global mobility , remote work , and increased residency options have certainly made this possible for more and more of us. I have imagined a more affordable retirement as an expat …. Spain , Mexico , Portugal

I made a Middle Eastern breakfast porridge today and it came out fairly tasty. I substituted #farro for #freekah because it’s what I had on hand. #foodsky #breakfast #ancientgrain #dates #vegan

May the Gods favor @algreen.house.gov for all his days. He was just kicked out of the State of the Union for holding up this sign that reads : Black People Aren’t Apes #resist #fdt #releasetheEpsteinFiles #trumpEconomy

Boiling firm #tofu in heavily salted water definitely makes a difference in its ability to soak in & take on the flavor of the marinade afterwards ! #dinner #foodsky

Sometime you have to perform “percussive remediation” in order not to have massive ice blocks rip your gutters off the roof of the house ❄️🌨️😮‍💨💪 This is ice after 4 days of melt - it’s a brutal #winter We had ice fall off 2nd story roof onto the 1st story and it shook the house like earthquake !

Pregnancy became far more dangerous in Texas after the state banned abortion, according to ProPublica’s first-of-its-kind analysis, which found the sepsis rate for women hospitalized as they miscarried in the 2nd trimester shot up by more than 50%. (Published Feb. 2025)

Welcoming in the #LunarNewYear with #TunaBowls for #dinner ! ( mine is raw , but partner likes theirs cooked ) Cannot usher Winter out and Spring in fast enough 🤣 #homecooked #foodsky

My partner would keep the tree up alll year round if I did not intercede.

How it started , how it’s going ☺️ Chicken, Sweet Potato , Corn #Chowder #dinner #mealprep #foodsky #homecooking

Love this for Kid Crackrock

Working on a small #watercolor series to mail out to loved ones. It’s themed after an annual brunch & art party I used to host called “ Snowflakes are Love “. In Houston , we didn’t have any actual snowflakes 🤣. Now I have about 18” of this love form on my roof & yard 🤣❄️🌨️ #Lockport,NY #art

One can hope …. If Texas went blue I don’t think I would be able to contain the amount of joy I would have

For old times sake, your reminder for the day and the upcoming week ahead. You are amazing and don’t let anyone else tell you otherwise. Have a great night. 💙. Happy Valentine’s Day my loves.

The perfect #GenX #Valentine’s Day 😆 #Sushi without the loud & crowded holiday-filled restaurant atmosphere! Comfy clothes , private bathroom , soft-jazz music playing in the background , and dessert baking in the oven 🥰

I long for this 2023 “ easy mode” Winter . My yard is currently featuring about 2 feet of snow. #Lockport,NY #WNY #Winter

If I got down as low as this elder Olympian I’d never be able to get back up 😄 Fantastic that he’s speaking out against #ICE #fdt #abolishICE

Zero- and low-alcohol drinks are gaining ground as people in France and beyond drink less.

The incredible artistry and athleticism of the skating events always holds me in awe. So today i’m posting about #SuryaBonaly - Olympic #French figure skater - known for her backflip onto a single skate ( 1998 Olympics ) . A banned move she executed anyways because she was ahead of her time.

Do you know the history of Butter Pecan ice cream ? :) #BlackHistoryMonth Thank you especially to @coreytoatley who shared this article with me ❤️ www.abhmuseum.org/butter-pecan...
