This year, because I spent so much time traveling, I didn’t feel like dragging the fake tree and all the ornaments out for just two weeks (I’m a “take the tree down right after Christmas” kinda gal). So, when the real trees went on sale, 1/2 off at the local grocery store, I grabbed a …

Saturday Open Thread: A Little Snow, A Lot of Leftovers
Looks like we could use an open thread. This is my current view. We’re six inches and still snowing. We could definitely use the moisture. The ducks are not happy because it’s only about 16 degrees F and they’re cooped up, literally. Bitching about it to me every time I go outside. Yesterday, once it …

Saturday Pet Thread: Nick Loves Trixie
As promised, I finally put together some video of Nick and Trixie: A Love Story (well, at least his love story, still not sure about her). Toward the end you’ll understand why it’s been so difficult to get any video at all of them. The other day, as Trixie came in the house, Nick jumped …

Let’s Talk Turkey (and bonus Duckteen video)
The duckteens experienced their first blast of winter and were not too pleased about it. They had to stay in their coop (which, to be fair, has a decent-sized yard attached) until it was warm enough for their little flat feet to wander the yard. Let’s talk turkey…specifically Thanksgiving. I have a dilemma – I …
