My first day back to work was rough. Physically and emotionally. My body was conditioned to take it slow during the stay-at-home period, so the normal rushed activities typical of my working mornings resulted in, what I would imagine, moments of hot flashes. True, it was an extraordinarily humid day, but I had never in my life before produced that much perspiration. It wasn't pretty. And to see the coworkers I had not seen in months and not be able to give them a hug was tough. Even when we ... continue reading...

Fiesta Friday #343
My beloved furbaby Skye celebrated her 12th birthday last week. My daughter and I made her a canine cake.

I myself can easily polish off half of that platter. How can you resist a platter of fresh fruits?! But unfortunately, my plan does not always work. Maybe if I had hidden other snacks in the house, or hollowed ... continue reading...

Dinner is served. That may look like breakfast to most of you, but seriously, that was our dinner last night. Why? Because sometimes the best thing for dinner is breakfast. You know what I mean? Truth be told, I was too lazy to cook dinner. And I had all these baby potatoes, which more often than not, start to sprout on my watch. Or should I say lack of watch? That's right, folks, babies tend to suffer from lack of supervision under my care. But only veggie babies. I'm a good human baby ... continue reading...
