Lillie swings by for a visit
Well, okay, she’s just a baby. She can’t just drive over and ring the doorbell herself. So I guess I should say Alayne and Jason swung by for a visit with their baby. Katie jiggled her around a little.
Then I jiggled her around a little.
Myth or urban legend or whatever, a highly unscientific experiment proved that it is definitely easier to balance an egg on the spring equinox. Yesterday, the egg wouldn’t balance. Today, here ya go.
Coincidence? Luck? Either way, it has been an absolutely fantastic sunshiny day today. Thank you spring!
Sunshine! (relative) Warmth! I know this could all be an evil trick, a little teaser before a giant March blizzard, but I don’t care. It’s sunny and warm and I gotta say I am really into it.
I saw loads of people along the river, squinting like bears coming out of hibernation. Pale faces exposed to the sun. Anybody doing anything exciting on a sunny Sunday?

Pulling teeth
Lincoln has joined some kind of cat gang with an arm shaving initiation.
Either that or he had some teeth pulled at the vet and they put an IV in his arm.

Taxes times three
Since I worked in two different states, both with income tax, I file two state returns plus one federal. I’m not having fun.
This ridiculous use of infographics on the Rhode Island form makes it all the worse. It’s mocking me.
I’m doing the pen and paper method. Does anybody pay a tax preparer or use Turbo Tax or something?

A slice or two
A giant Costco cake can be obliterated with the help of a few friends.
So thank you to all those who pitched in.
Maybe cupcakes next time?

Frozen lake

Katie demonstrates the proper stroke for frozen swimming.
If you live in Mass, don’t forget to head to the polls to vote for Kennedy’s replacement. The ads last night were out of control, back to back insanity. So I’ll be glad when they disappear. At a little after 7am there was an impressive turnout. It impressed me at any rate.
So my civic duty is done for the day.
Yesterday I made yam tacos and they were darn tasty. Similar to the boniato tacos at my old favorite Agua Verde, these had leftover roasted yams cut up into little pieces, mixed in with some sautéed onions, piled into a corn tortilla and sprinkled with extra sharp cheddar. I see why they add an avocado sauce because mine were slightly on the dry side.
Go vote! Go make yam tacos!

Safety first
Now that I’m back in Mass. and the new year has begun, it’s time for a little sprucing up the place. First of all, I have my birthday present to hang. Marika, see the note about goggles?
Does this look straight?
