Sometimes for a treat I do that with coffee. I have not tried it with tea, but now I must.

A holiday treat I ❤️ is to add eggnog to my coffee.

Yes, that bothers me also. But this is why we need to HEAVILY VET our own candidates before we elect them.

Don’t let them off with not showing their tax returns. Go through their past thoroughly. Yearbooks, op-eds, rumors, etc.

Because if we don’t, the opposition WILL.

@CherNohio

Yes, heavy rains are predicted, with possible flooding. 🙀

Manuka honey is different. I have never bought it, but have thought about it.

Good morning CoSo!

In one week we went from -44*F windchill to +57*F back to freezing (but not sub-zero). Last night the mud was so bad it was trying to suck the boots off my feet. This morning it was frozen solid. #MidwesternWinter

We had coffee and breakfast muffins while watching Colbert’s monologue. We rarely stay up to watch him, but find that breakfast with Colbert starts our day with laughter, which is our main way of coping with this disaster.

We discussed it tonight. We will not watch. Neither of us can stomach watching him. We have some old movies recorded that we can watch instead.

Oh noes. I helped to found a Mental Health Court. In my experience people like that generally should not self-administer their anti-psychotics. 😱

Be safe.

@PurpleDragon

Sometimes it helps to put it in writing, or to talk about it. Good luck with your decision. 💜

Sorry. I know how that goes - the named ones become pets.

I have 2 really NICE roosters right now, buff Orpingtons. Easy to handle boys - I can pick them up, pet them, carry them around, and they are happy. They are not mean to my hens. I don’t worry about them around the grandkids. If you lived anywhere near me, I would give one to you.

@UnTied

Bless you for doing this. That will bring the family some comfort, knowing that their loved one has allowed others to live. It's hard to open up to unknown strangers, but what an act of kindness.

They kidnapped the children with no plan of reunification. I think they planned to let DeVos’s family profit via adoptions.

🤬

@catlynne333

Me too. What blew me away is official’s statement on CBS this morning that the inmates were served hot meals. Like it is OK to be without heat (and without extra clothes and blankets to cope with the lack of heat) if you get 2 or 3 warmish meals per day.

@Vikky

So sorry for your loss. Losing our beloved fur family members is heartbreaking. Take time to grieve. 💜

And yes, I love the idea of the 🌈 bridge, that they are all awaiting us on the other side.

Ah! Here in the Midwest we have ruby throated hummingbirds, which are migratory (and mighty!). They have an amazingly long migration for such tiny creatures. It is a miracle of nature that they can do it. I don’t think they could survive our winters - very cold, no flowers, no insects - and even feeders would freeze solid. But I look forward to their arrival each spring and plant many flowers with them in mind - I try to have something in bloom for them from spring through autumn.
