Just picked up A Cat Named Meatball, with lovely illustrations by my friend Regina Yates. I especially loved the New York City street scene. And there was a plot development I wasn’t expecting! Plus a pizza recipe at the end. #books #childrensbooks #cats #catsky #catsofbluesky #nyc #pizza #booksky
The cover of a children’s book. The title is A Cat Nnamed Meatball. The cover illustration shows a girl sitting at a table wee that has a red checked cloth. She is eating g spaghetti and also petting a cat that is sitting in the table. The first page of the children’s book A Cat Named Meatball. The text says: “A stray cat sat on a brick windowsill, peering at the woman who made the dough twirl. The window was warm from the oven inside on cold, rainy nights when she had nowhere to hide.”Illustration showing a cat outside a window looking in at a woman throwing pizza dough in the airThe back cover of the book A Cat Named Meatball. The blurb says: “Young Catalina loves helping her Aunt Tina in her pizzeria. One day, a special stray cat comes her way, a cat she names Meatball. Will Aunt Tina let Meatball – whose paws knead more than just pillows – stay?

More people should do this—and/or be sworn in on a copy of the state or federal constitution, as the case may be.

Have you ever watched the old 1960s TV soap opera Dark Shadows and if so what do you think of the tailoring and fashions by Ohrbach’s? (It seems pretty darn good to me. I was a little surprised.) #DarkShadows

This no-kill animal shelter is in desperate need of kitten food, kitten milk replacement, and other supplies. If you post a screenshot in my replies showing that you donated at least $10 (even as a Chewy gift card), I'll answer a style-related question for you. Donation info in their thread.

But Bert would never let you forget that he’s doing all that work AND he would not allow you to play a trumpet in the middle of the night. (Also I don’t think he likes people in general.)

Any #MysteryScienceTheater3000 / #ManosTheHandsofFate / #DarkShadows crossover fans here on Bluesky? Does anyone else think Matthew Morgan is #Torgo coded? So many similarities: Lurches about with a bit of a limp, bearded, wears baggy pants, VERY loyal to his employer... coincidence? #Manos #MST3K

AT LAST! I'm on episode 70 of #DarkShadows and finally something supernatural has happened. I was afraid the whole 200+ episodes #DarkShadowsTheBeginning would be ghost-free.

I was at a conference this morning in NYC where we heard about the impact of the elimination of the National Weather Service and of the privatization of weather info. Grim predictions: Paid access for weather forecasts and little info for rural communities bc fewer subscribers.
