Chicken thighs, potatoes, and green beans in a chicken stock and cream sauce with a bit of Dijon and some vermouth. Because why not?! 😂 🍽️🍜

#GoodMorningFromSaskatoon where it snowed!

After much deliberation and a grueling interview process, I’m pleased to announce that I’ve accepted a new job and will not need any financial support from my parents to cover the high costs of childcare going forward. #AmericanDream #ThisIsYourCity

This is Mack. In his head he absolutely crushed this agility course. Who are we to tell him otherwise. 14/10 (TT: adventuresof.mack)

Snow already mostly gone, but wonderfully frosty morning.

Looks like the lady in line ahead of me at Albertsons is having a day:

“Quiet, Piggy” would be fitting for his tombstone.

Three years ago this week. There was ice - and foxes! - on the river. Still waiting for the ice - and foxes! #mammals 🌿

You know the fix is in when the vote is 147-1 IN FAVOR of releasing the files. It’s all scrubbed by now.

Subtle sunset

@ok2panic.bsky.social - you should open your DMs briefly - perhaps an old friend is trying to reach out...

It’s happening 🥶

We should reboot journalism completely. Start from scratch. They should get those old timey hats and a pencil and figure it out from there

Also saw a pair of local cranes this weekend as well. #birds #SandhillCrane

I got to cap off a fantastic polar bear season with the treat of driving one of the tundra buggies for a while. This stretch of trail is quite smooth, but they did let me take it down off of the ridge into rougher terrain.

To all my author friends - be part of history (the GOOD kind!)

Tonight we have had the sort of skies where tourists started crying and, honestly, I get it. 💚

Fam, not to worry… You too can decorate your home like the White House, and it’s just a click away.

Powerful.

First annual “Herbening” is a wrap. This years theme (obvs.) - Simon & Garfunkel (minus the parsley, which I don’t bother with drying). Next year, wider variety and fer cryin’ out loud get some half-pint jars, Bob! 😵‍💫😬😎

ITS ALIIIIVE!!!!!!!

Wendy just informed me that someone is selling a....I can barely type this...."cordless jumprope". As soon as she said it, the product leapt into my mind--a pair of motion sensing handles that probably need to connect to the internet to work and "track your workout". For $40. FFS. Tech today.

This was a really lovely treat to happen upon while sitting here at home knitting. Knitting and singing along to Neil Young! Have loved him and his music from the beginning. Happy Birthday Neil ❤️ youtu.be/USp4W2M1X-0?...

couple more of the #aurora in Southern Manitoba from a few nights ago. There is more forecast tomorrow and Monday so heads up if you have clear skies☺️

This was such an amazing bird to see!

What a photograph. “Nearly two dozen arrested as faith leaders protested outside a federal immigration facility near Chicago…” Arrested large amounts of peaceful clergy face first on pavement is a pretty good sign you’re not the good guys in the story. www.reuters.com/legal/govern...

Alllllrighty then. Hard cider v2 is now in the fermenter, yeast and nutrient are pitched, and confidence is high that we’ll have active ferment with 1-2 days (🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞) should be tasting in early ‘26. Pray for me, me skeeps!!! @ok2panic.bsky.social @loberd.bsky.social

They mostly were yards behind #BEKI, but 4 or 5 #crows were harassing Mr. BEKI and it was a very high speed chase. BEKI mostly stuck to trying to fish and it was great karma when BEKI slowed and dove for fish and the crow got to experience "which way did it go?" as it flew through the splash. #birds

I thought these trees looked magical or spooky or something 😆

I also saw about 200 Sandhill Cranes up near the Wi River last weekend. I am hoping for more this weekend.It was a dark day and the birds were deep in a farm field.They were a tad far for good pics, but here's a 100mm and a 500mm shots of what I saw.Warms my heart to see so many! #birds #Sandhills

An adult Rhinoceros can weigh 5000 lbs, so it’s appropriate that a group of rhinoceroses is called a “crash”. They go where they want. These White Rhinoceroses were slowly eating their way across the plain. Mom is front and centre and always kept an eye on the “little” baby on the left! #mammal

"300 agents stormed the building, rappelled from a helicopter, knocked down doors and hurled flash-bang grenades. Agents ziptied and detained many US citizens for hours..." Prosecutors have not filed a *single* criminal charge against anyone arrested that night: www.propublica.org/article/chic...

Redpoll! One of the older gentlemen I see a lot while birding told me that it's been four years since we've had them in Chicago. I saw one a week ago, but couldn't get a pic. NOW I'm happy. 😂 #birds
