Fridays we do this thing - Ham (our big orange boy cat) freshly prepares artisan hand crafted waffles (frozen) for the kids before school. It’s a whole performance. Today kids have a physical test in gym so they asked for “some fruit or vegetables or something instead of waffles”. WHAT IS HAPPENING.

Man raising baby #caterpillars and butterflies last year really changed me as a person. They’re in diapause in my garage right now and I want to go tuck them in but I think they’ll be ok. Amazing creatures!

SERIOUS QUESTION this little gold bar on this coat. I see this on so many shows/EVERY Hallmark holiday movie. Are they simply for costumes or are they in real life too? Does anyone own a coat with this as I’ve never seen one out in the wild. SERIOUS ANSWERS ONLY. tia.

This is what my small very realistic kitchen looks like when I’m making my favorite veggie chili!! Secret is adding some black coffee. Crock pot that shit! SO GOOD.

I finally did it this week! True story, I’m not a fantastic baker, but my kids LOVE my banana bread so if they ask, it’s a rule that I must make it. 🥰🥰🥰

Slipping & sliding dog walker here reporting that there are so many still icy surfaces in Chicago. I went to 3 places to get salt and everywhere is sold out. Love supporting #acehardware on NW HWY in Park Ridge though who was just unloading a new supply.

In Chicago we have alleys and our garages aren’t attached to our homes. So I’m in bed all cozy and get this text and just thank goodness for kind neighbors.

What’s it like having 11 year olds? This is me after school texting (they both have Apple Watches, no phones until 14 years old)…. AND SCENE.

My favorite things this morning. Sugar coated cranberries I made because everyone is doing it, this poem hits me smack in my heart at this moment, tea from Trader Joe’s is my favorite every winter. I don’t mind the dark and cold months. I sink into them knowing they are part of our natural rhythm.

We went to a lovely wedding Sat. night. Actual conversation: Me to Man I just met but had heard about he and his wife: “Hey is your wife here?” Him: “No, she left me. Divorce was finalized this week. 😵 Here’s a cute pic of my husband and I before I shamed the family. Again. #SocialAnxiety
