Beyonce
This is Beyonce.
She is the Polish member from the band of new girls. As I mentioned, some of the band will be departing for another home. Not Beyonce. Beyonce is staying. Although, I am not sure why. Beyonce is a freaky chicken. Read more
Eggs & Lettuce
For those of you not following Dogs or Dollars on Facebook (a fact which I can totally understand), you might have missed my Monday morning squeeeeeeel at the sight of this.
Eggs! Eggs! eggseggseggseggseggs! EGGS! Read more
Official Officiant
Blue dress has been usurped by purple dress. Purple dress fits better, and is frankly more flattering. It is nonetheless, still borrowed.
What’s with all the wardrobe woes? For someone who delays clothing shopping as long as humanly possible, this is an awful lot of mental cycle expenditure. What you are going to wear is important sometimes. Sometimes, like when you are performing wedding ceremonies. Read more
Freebies
The free seems to be flowing in my blog o’sphere lately. Lots of talk of sugary drinks, coupons, etc,. As it is still the month of my birth, I’ve cashed in on a couple Corporate Dining perks, enjoying both a shortbread cookie and burger this week at no cost to me. Also good reminders to keep up with my running. My best freebies go beyond that though.
They run right into Ugly Garden. Read more

13.1 Tomorrow
I was working on another post for today. It’s postponed. If I posted something else, I wouldn’t be able to share this very important, very timely announcement.
Importance being completely relative.
I’m running my first half marathon tomorrow. Insert a bunch of anxiety and excitement noises here.
Free Stuff
Friday posts tend to be about the the crap I buy. That’s fine with me, because its a seemingly bottomless pool of subject matter. Easily accessibly for me with a quick trip around the house or a review of the receipts in my wallet.
During my last such stuff perusal, I took note of not all things I’ve bought which I still adore, but all the items that have entered my life free of charge. Things I am nonetheless enamored with, that came to me with no exchange of money.
Exhibit A. Read more
Oh Yes, I Did
I seem to like making an ass out of myself.
Open mouth, insert foot. Rinse, Repeat. Again and again and again.
It must be true. Right on the heels of my ‘Acting Poor‘ soap box, what do I find to write about on this fine Friday morning? Purchases. As is so often the case, be it books, thrifted goodness, or the cuppow, my general love of stuff continues. This time its art.
And So It Begins…
Much ado about food this week. Or much To Do with food.
The bulk of those strawberries I picked up in Oregon, made their way into the freezer.
With that small act, the season of food preservation is officially upon us.
But, we didn’t stop with mere freezing… Read more
Going, Going,…
We are going to be gone all weekend. It’s a whirlwind trip to rural Oregon, chalk full of family and birthdays and eating, oh my!
I will also be capitolizing on my rural location to do a little shopping. Hitting up the small town Farmer’s Market, where prices are cheaper. Shopping the un-trendy Farm Supply Stores (as opposed to the trendy ones here) in hopes of finding a better price on a pickling crock and perhaps electric fencing for Chicken paddocks.
Speaking of Chickens, I’m concerned about Pet Sitters, and certain dogs in this household, prone to take advantage of the any disturbance in the force for bad behavior. I guess we will find out just how secure the Lady’s set up is, wont we?
Cherie Chicken is unconcerned. Read more
