Started to watch but the intensity of the yelling by the sisters is too hard to watch. So not a fan.
These were great books - I still have the whole set. Alas, they were proven to be false - still great reads.
That is really a nice cable pattern. Do you have the chart?
There is a great gallery in Wausau Wisconsin (USA) that is known for its Birds in Art exhibitions. I believe it's an annual juried exhibit. Check it out...Birds in Art Exhibition in Wausau | Leigh Yawkey Woodson Art Museum share.google/U3INoyaonmUi...

So, a word of advice...if you are using the small room humidifiers and your furnace is working hard or stalling out - put in a new clean filter. The fine white dust from the humidifier mist is coating your filter. A simple fix. Check filters and change often.

Heat is back on and consistent. It's not just me that's happy about that...

My furnace kept shutting down over the weekend. With night temps at -23F it was imperative that I kept it going, which meant no sleep. Yesterday a tech arrived. It was my filter - even though I checked that and it looked fine. White powder from my humidifiers had clogged it. I have heat now.
I have never been more proud in our Prime Minister! Wow.

Acrylic paint applied to muslin (an old curtain), via a gelli plate. To define the vision - drawing on the painted areas using a technical pen #3, then embroidery (only here and there), to small areas. So far just French knots but will use some satin stitches later.

Good question for Kristi Noem.
Thank you!

Felix says it's just too cold out at -11F to go outside. Let me sleep instead...

Up to you but if they get a hold on your house and get inside, they are a nuisance and you can get quite a few in a very short time. They are attracted to light colored siding.
Just so you know, that is not a ladybug. You can tell by the bowtie on its black head. It is an invasive Asian beetle.They bite and they stink and they leave their poo all over your walls, ceilings, windows and siding. Cute, not the ladybugs that are 'good' for our gardens. Sorry about the lecture.
Feeding America has a page where you can input your zip code and it'll show you all of the food banks near you overlaid on a map. If you need it, it's there. If you don't need it, think about donating money if you have it and your time if you don't.

When the thermometers dip to the 20sF and below, we need the insulation of a blanket of snow. This protects our water pipes, wells and of course the roots of trees and bushes.

Going into November and still so many apples on the trees. All good too - not wormy (well mostly). Organic. This year was a banner year. Best in 20 years for sure. It does make me wonder, the impact that the spring weather has on future growth and harvests. #apples #orchard #gardening #harvests
He has lots of dogs. They just walk on two legs and he kicks them when they are down or just because he can.
My lazy Felix. He has 'chilly down to a science.
