Last of the Garden

I had a few random bits left over from my Fall garden harvest. A couple tomatoes that I had harvested green and left to ripen in a paper bag, the last Violetta de Gama onion, garlic, parsley, dill, mint, a lone red pepper that I think was a pasilla, Meyer lemon, and pomegranate avrils. To this is added some farro, chick peas, dried cranberries, a little sumac, white vinegar, lemon olive oil, salt and pepper to taste. It is so fresh and makes me think of warm days. 

Life Is Change

Never thought I would see social media in its death throes. X (formerly twitter) Meta (Facebook, Threads, Instagram) have all seen a mass exodus of users to other platforms such as Bluesky and Mastodon. Makes us all long for Myspace, am I right? Will this signal a resurgence in blogging? What will fill the void? Most of my friends stopped blogging in the mid 2010s. Most online forums that we used to connect and keep in touch have long gone away. Webrings are no more. People have this insatiable need to find community. We will make a community if we have to. I don't know what he future holds, but I do know it holds change. Nothing stays the same. Life is change.

The Days Are Dark But The Cats Are Warm

Today was pretty gloomy, but that is okay. I have my cats to not only keep me company, but to keep me warm. 

My New Amazon Storefront

As most of you know, my cats are very important to me. I love documenting them in photos and video. 

I am so excited to tell you, I was just accepted to the Amazon Influencers Program. I now have a storefront where you can see my fav cat items. 

So what does this all mean? It means you can see the items that I buy for myself and that I think are super cute. If you like them too you can buy them off of Amazon. I get a small commission on qualifying sales. This income will help me get feral cats to the vet and help pet charities and pet owners in need. 

So consider checking it out!

Painting a Mural

I have been fixing up the North Garden. I really neglected it after Dobby died. So today I started the background for a mural in his honor. Working on big fluffy clouds. This is going to be a long haul project. Took me two hours to do the little bit I got up. I still need to finish all the colors of clouds and then add details. I will keep you updated on the progress.

The dollhouse is waiting for me to not be doing other stuff. The kittens have been adopted except for the grey one. We named her Miss Mochi Mo da Super Beau. She is a doll. I am thankful for her and my other cats.

Staying Busy

I know it has been awhile since the last post. I haven’t working in the dollhouse due to tiny kittens being kept in the room my dollhouse is in. They were so worth it. 

The two older babies went to their new home a couple days ago. The little grey one is younger by about 3-4 weeks and is going to my granddaughter. I am going to miss these scamps!

My garden has continued growing like crazy. I do have to spend a good amount of time on pest control. Aphids, cabbage loopers, squash bugs, tomato worms. I have them all and they drove me nuts! I don’t want to use pesticides so hand picking, heavy spaying with water and dish soap are my go-tos. Makes me tired, but I deserve to eat those veggies, not the bugs.

I also grew sunflowers for the first time this year. How the heck have I never grown them before? 

You can be sure I will grow them again next year.

How has your summer been? Have you grown a garden, done craft? Let me know!

Grab Bags! The Dollhouse Saga

I am so excited! The $5 grab bag I ordered from Just Miniature Scale arrived! I bought four bags. They did an excellent job of mixing it all up. 

There are a few items that I am not keeping. I might do a giveaway. Let me know what you think!
