you could've fooled me -

that it's technically still autumn - until tomorrow!

'i prefer winter and fall,
when you feel the bone structure of the landscape -
the loneliness of it, the dead feeling of winter.
something waits beneath it,
the whole story doesn't show.'
~ andrew wyeth


yesterday


today

aujourd'hui
the inuit have 52 words for snow because it is so special to them...


where's waldo - only with sparrows!

a cat's way to spend the day ~ 





 'a catless writer is almost inconceivable. 
it's a perverse taste, really,
since it would be easier to write with a herd 
of buffalo in the room than even one cat;
they make nests in the notes
and bite the ends of the pen
and walk on the typewriter keys.'

venturing out last night


shortbread that i have been making since i was 16

and a sleepover...
one child was already up and busy ~


may this sunday be exactly what you want it to be~
and i will be on duty as the dresser, shoe tier and clothes dryer!

  3. mmm, shortbread...good idea...i was looking at shortbread cookies the other day, maybe I should get out a load of butter and make some instead...(funny what gets my attention ;-))
    i love that last cat-on-legs photo...and all the snow photos too! and everything else...
    i think i see two sparrows in the bush...probably there are more hiding in there.
    enjoy your day today...

  8. We got a ton of snow here in MD, and I LOVE it! Of course, I also don't have to get OUT in it! Look, no touch!

  9. Ah yes, the white cat has conquered the human after all and sits proudly on the vanquished one! LOL! A familiar site as my marmalade kitty often sits on my legs at night.

    Hope you've dug out from the snow!
