  • A Rose By Any Other Name Would Smell As Sweet

    Congratulations to my dad on his retirement. He’s been counting down the days for a long time now but has already agreed to teach a few classes again in the fall so I guess it’s more of a partial retirement. Very excited for him. To celebrate, my mom and dad rented a beach house on…

  • Lava Lava

    Bought some new lily plants and planted them in my backyard…probably not the best timing. It’s a little bit hot. I woke up with a start realizing I forgot to take a picture! It was a little before midnight and this is all I could muster. We are limited in the number of perfect summer…

  • Oregano, Mint, Rosemary and Thyme. She’ll be a true love of mine.

    We went three posts with no cat pictures, so gear up for a post flush with cats. That’s just what happens. Our temporary (white trash) solution to keeping to keeping cat fur off the new dining chairs.   I have got to remember not to leave presents on the ground…the cats always open them and…

  • Holly Hocks, Forget-Me-Nots

    My eyes just started watering from excitement when I saw my good friend Annalee walk through the door of the fro-yo shop.  I haven’t seen her in years and we all had an hour long conversation that ended pretty crappy…literally. Somehow the conversation went south and ended on the topic of poop. I left with…

  • Osh Kosh B’Gosh

    (Continuation of the post below) We flew in early to NYC and checked into our hotel then we straight to our favorite little Chinese restaurant we discovered last year. It’s the only place that’s come even close to authentic Chinese food and I crave real Chinese food all the time so it was mandatory we stopped…

  • I mustache you a question

    What you see below might shock and even disturb you, but I assure you everything is ok.   Doug had a full beard going on and was shaving Sunday night and as a (hilarious) joke left just the ‘stache. I told him he should leave it like that for work and when he considered it…

  • Lion and the Lamb

    New dining chairs that Felix is christening with his blasted fur. We’ve clearly got to come up with some new “no cat zone” tactics. The cats were looking out the screen door so Doug sat down with them while the bird was on his head. Felix I guess needed a better view (?) so he…

  • Summer Wind Was Always Our Song

    Still haven’t missed a picture of the day yet… Idaho summer skies never fail. Happy Birthday mom! Thanks for spending it with us. What was this one? 35?  Sorry about prematurely cutting your cake before we sang the happy birthday song, I’ll take the blame for that one. Again with the Idaho summer skies. Lunch…

  • Caption Contest

    Caption contest on this picture of Professor. Leave a caption in the comments. Winner gets….notoriety.

  • Brownie Root Beer is #1

    I started Monday off right with a massage after work. It’s the worst when you realize they’re finishing up (mine always ends with my right foot) and I get so sad and try to savor every last second. Ahhh… We have loved living in this house. However, one thing it lacks is air conditioning, you…
