The shelter I volunteer with is having a fundraiser, partnered with See’s Chocolates.  So of course I had to order some.  For the kitties.  Not FOR the kitties.  You know what I mean.

 

This was our first snowfall that really needed a shovel.  Fortunately, it wasn’t a whole heck of a lot.   It sure is pretty.  I just wish we can train it to stay off roads and walkways.

We had friends over last week and tried out our recently acquired fondue pot.  There was a good bit leftover, so Doug turned it into individual servings, and we had that for dessert.  Very tasty.

I had an appointment in Boston this afternoon, and with the way the train schedule works, I arrived quite early and had some time.   There’s an interactive art exhibit around the city, so I wandered around looking for the various exhibits.  The tall flowers were fun–you press buttons and they light up and play music. But I really got a giggle from the Kraken in the office building.

Since inheriting Ernie’s scratching stool (see post February 10, 2025), Ferrous has taken to sitting on it and pushing the curtain aside with his nose, so he can keep tabs on what’s going on in the neighborhood.

Went to see “Chicago” at the Hanover Theater in Worcester today.  Absolutely fantastic production!!!  Thoroughly enjoyed myself.

(confession:Doug took this photo first and that made me want to take this photo too because it IS a pretty cool shot.  But I really liked how this came out, so I’m using it too.)

My library has built these neat little cubbies where a person can study with someone else.  Perfect if you’re just studying together, or working on a project quietly if there’s no study rooms available.

V was harder to find than I expected.  I’m a little concerned about W…

The forecast I checked this morning said it would be cold and cloudy all day.  No one said anything about snow. (Which, granted, didn’t last long, but it was still a surprise.)

The thing I find most interesting about this picture is that I took it through 2 clear windows, and 1 screen, and it actually came out pretty well.
