Lots of pictures. Odds and ends that haven't shown up here because I don't "live blog" here any more.



Chilling in the basement with Steve after getting back from vacation.



Sam trying to lead me into the kitchen for a feeding.



Steve attacking through the door as I cleaned the litter boxes for him. So ungrateful. I converted the front entry closet into their own private bathroom and this is the thanks I get.



Steve never wants to be picked up and put on the table to eat, but I have to do that or else Sam will eat his food. He does crap like this to make it hard to pick him up.

A couple of nice shots from the kitchen window. It's a bummer that we can't get this view from the back deck, just fifteen feet or so to the left, but that's just the way the trees line up. It's also hard to get a good picture of this view, because the windows are pretty dirty on the outside.




Two amazing new books by suxdonut! I'm even in the one on the right a couple of times. :D



A big sheet of uncut Zima bottle labels I got on eBay. Not sure exactly what I'll do with it. A lampshade is a possibility seeing as how another item is on the way that would make a really good lamp.



Steve supervising while I made granola. A huge batch of granola. I had it this morning with vanilla almond milk and it was really, really good.




Dramatic moments at the window downstairs.




We finally found a little table for the dining room seating area. There was one I liked a little more, but it was almost three times as expensive as this one.



A little something for my bedroom I picked up at Clines Corners.



And finally, something else purple.



I should have taken a walk this morning. It's always hard to get back into the groove after a vacation. Tomorrow.

LOL! I've been playing with a similar app and they have some weird make up ideas on the one I have ;)

I really like your table. Is it a real geode or a print of one?

[christopher575.livejournal.com]

Just a print. I'm sure it would cost about ten times as much if it were real. :)

Oooh, what do you put in your granola?

where did you get your granola recipe? I got mine literally decades ago from a boyfriend's mom.

Whoops, don't know if you do comment notification emails but I was trying to answer the final comment below. Deleted! :)

It's funny, I linked it in the text and you're the second person to ask. :) Forks Over Knives, all my vegan cooking has been their recipes.

I blame lack of contrast, small font and a screen with the brightness turned down. Yep.

Remember when all links were underlined?

Yeah...
