Nothing Much

I wanted to video Zing, aka Mr. Wonderful, at his hay, but as soon as he spotted me....he left. Talk about disrespect. And I was his human mama. Ingrate.

The eternal two-year-old is twenty-four. It seems like last week I was raising this orphaned foal.


It was in the 30s F yesterday, but blustery winds override temperature every time. Turn the volume on to hear the wind chime. I made Italian flat bread yesterday and we shared one at dinner with the tomato sauce I made during the day and some egg noodles. It was a good day to spend in the kitchen.


Today will be another quiet one. I'll make some bread, oven roast ribs and listen to my latest book. It's what I do to relieve the stress many of us are feeling. May you all have your own way of decompressing.

That's a lovely video, speaking of decompressing. And what's the current book?

Dirty Thirty by Janet Evanovich. It's a comedic mystery, perfect for the times. I think Zing walked away because when he's in front of a camera he is always gussied up! No candid shots allowed.

My wife informs me that we are about to go for a walk. It is close to 0F.

Love your wind chimes!
The flat bread looks so good. New to me, for sure.
