Lead Foot

I need to get up and get some work done— but there’s a kitten asleep…

on my foot.

And yes she is actually hanging upside down like that, with her nose on the floor.

 

Little Dali

 

Our sweet baby girl kitty was kindly delivered to us on Friday. She came all the way from Arizona— thanks to my kind friend Fiona and her son Finley.

Another lovely thing is that this kitty is the granddaughter of my little Chili who we lost in February. 😔

It’s incredibly healing to hold a tiny piece of a kitty that we loved so much for such a short time.

We’ve named her Dali and she already has our hearts.

Tarmac In the Spring

Our cute little Tarmac the House Squirrel is all decked out with a bouquet of Spring flowers.

If I didn’t know better, I’d think he was going on a date.

Too bad he’s…so…HOUSEBOUND!

HAaaa! Get it?! HAA!

 

Pizza Chicken Bake

This is a super easy, quick whip up type meal that people will think you’ve been slaving over all day. It’s essentially a scrumptious pizza, with thinly sliced chicken breast in place of the crust.

Start by thinly slicing 4 chicken breasts into filets. Cook them in a skillet until they are no longer pink inside.

Arrange the cooked chicken in a 9×13 Pyrex pan. Cover the chicken with 1 cup pizza sauce.

Sprinkle about a cup of shredded Mozerella over the chicken. Arrange 2 oz sliced pepperoni on top.

Bake, uncovered at 400 degrees for 25-30 minutes.

Serve nice and hot so the cheese will be all melty.

Goes well with garlic bread and salad.

You ow me big.

A Smidge of Country Charm

Oh my goodness. There is just something about these two pictures that warms my heart. I may have been born a hundred years too late to actually live this exact life— but my sweet little house is taking on its own country charm one small step at a time. That’s close enough for me.
