 Vaccinated supper tonite… Live from NYC… 

Couldn’t make up my mind what holiday to celebrate today… 

Soooo… celebrate BOTH!!

Happy St Patrick’s Day ☘️💚 

from the Big Wet Apple 🍏 


Chilly day… overcast skies… steady light rain 🌧 folks out with umbrellas 🌂 picking up kids from school...  neighbor with his dog out for a hurried walk…  a new squirrel 🐿  showing herself today… grey with blonde areas of fur on her tail… back… belly and face…  looking like she had an argument with a bottle of peroxide…  digging in the soft wet earth looking for acorns 🌰 


Late breakfast… sleeping in on this drab day…  coffee ☕️ 🧋for two…  yogurt with blackberries, raspberries and blueberries 🫐 for the hubs… banana 🍌 pour moi… Mr Sam enjoying his taste of whey followed by morning kibble 😽


Playtime in the kitchen… pickling Kirby cucumbers… baking Irish soda bread with currants…  baking hamentashen… one half filled with homemade mixed berry preserves… the other with fig preserves… kitchen smelling heavenly 


Supper tonite… flounder filet meunière with mashed cinnamon yams and roasted asparagus… slices of Irish soda bread… a glass of crisp Vinho Verde 🥂and for dessert… warm hamentashen


Nervously watching covid infections ticking up in China and Europe as a new variant of Omicron spreads across the globe 🌎  local infections still very low… vaccines… boosters and prior infections still capable of warding off serious illness and hospitalization  #GetYourJabOn  now is the time to practice self care and be part of the solution 

Ukraine continues to be inundated with bombs  #peaceforukraine 🇺🇦 💔be mindful of how fortunate we all are to be here in America 💕😷

How was your day?   What’s on your plate?   Thoughts?
