Little story about Tiger the cat....
He sleeps all day, alone, in the utility room. He's not been happy with the 2 dogs, rabbit and cat that moved back in last March. He always looks sad and lonely.
Lately, I've been taking him into our bedroom and he soaks up the love, massages my arm to thank me, and is in pure joy. Of course I have to let him out before I retire for the night, but he has really been getting some one on one touchy lovey time.
Yesterday, I opened it to head to the kitchen and start working in there. That little stinker flew in the bedroom like he owned the place. He went right under the bed of all places. Later one daughter, and myself, tried to find him. No cat to be seen and not anywhere in the house. I was stumped.
Then later....
I noticed a lump under the bed quilt. Ha ha ha! He crawled under there and got his little cozy spot, so I left him there, and just kept checking the bedroom. Poor guy just needed some attention and love.
I finally found organic broccoli, so that was blanched and put in the freezer. I cannot find organic cauliflower, so I may be changing my tune in how big the garden is next year. Something else I cannot find on shelves (or online where I typically get other items), is organic pumpkin puree. I will most likely plant pumpkins next year too.
I strained a tincture, and have two more to strain today for winter prep for medicinals. I need to strain a jar of homemade vanilla extract as well today.
I bought myself a early Christmas present. I have yet to look all through it, but a looking forward to this cookbook. I pre-ordered it, and I'm glad I did. People ordering it now are having to wait 2-3 months to get their order.
Yesterday we warmed up to 77 degrees. Later today, we are to get rain again. I have yet to get to the garden to finish getting it ready it for winter. Our weather will go cold again after this. There is much to do yet to prep for winter.
I'm contemplating a new Christmas Eve tradition in our home this year. It's just 4 of us, so it wouldn't be that expensive. I may do it a bit different than the idea was presented, but still a good idea. I'll be sharing later if I do.
