Dreaming of fresh Catnip

Looking back over my last few blog entries, it seems I have posted quite a few cat pictures - well, I could not resist our big fella dreaming of fresh Catnip... We are all patiently waiting for the snow to disappear, and as a matter of fact, some new Calendula babies have come up in my newly 'renovated' growing rack parked in the workshop we have been working on - amazing anything came up at all considering the cold temperatures.

Happy New Year!

Oops, I guess it has been a while since I updated my blog - busy with moving my momma in and her precious cat (that is her in the photo with her catnip gift), baking with my new dishes and oven mitts (gifts from my guys), and getting organized for another great year - wishing everyone a healthy and happy new year!

Are you looking at me?

Our youngest cat is trying to get my attention as he feels 'mom' has been taking too many pictures lately of baby birds ... how can you not when they are right in front of you in the workshop we are building. Momma bird is back on the nest again for a second 'batch' - she is feeling right at home in this noisy workshop. And speaking of looking, I should have remembered this is a construction site - I tripped last weekend and camera and I hit the cement foundation at the same time with dark bruises and a broken camera lens as a result!

Food Matters

I thought it was great that 'Oprah' had Michael Pollan on the show yesterday - I highly recommend you also watch the 'Food Inc' and 'Food Matters' documentaries.


Here is a picture of my 'pup' taken two years ago - look at that snow! A friend had specifically requested a picture of her as only the kittens have been shown on my blog - fair is fair!

Snuggle time...

As I was putting a nice pot of soup on this morning, our two cats really decided to snuggle up together - they are the best of friends. I look forward to snuggling up later with this library book - 'Earth to Table' by Jeff Crump and Bettina Schormann -Michael Pollan states on the cover "This is a beautiful book in every way" - I agree!
