You know you cook a lot when...

I was standing at my laptop and Guppy asked, "What are you doing?"

"I'm checking something on my laptop," I told her. (Browsing Facebook, is the truth.)

"It's a quarter teaspoon," she told me confidently.

Because of course, I'm usually checking the quantity for a recipe! She will also run to the measuring spoon drawer and bring one to me if I say something needs spiced (randomly, though she always CALLS it a quarter teaspoon). No Sweetheart, I am not putting in a tablespoon of cinnamon.

Fridaily progress...

Here's the final version of the postcard I was working on, I think:

Guppy and I went for a walk this morning - the snow is getting soft and will turn into slush not long from now. Mornings will be easier walking for a little while, while things are still frozen from the night. I dread the days we can't go out at all.

Groceries and post office after that, and Guppy was not exactly cooperative at the grocery store. She turned to make sure I was watching her run away from me AS I was telling her not to run away from me, and then couldn't understand why I put her in the cart. (Other shoppers got a kick out of me running after her, though...) Loud wails of 'I wanna listen to you!' as she kicked me did not thaw my icy heart. Her nap was short, and she was up early, but I still managed to get my NEW new phone set up. Mostly. I'll probably remember other apps to reinstall as I go to use them and don't have them.

Here's a photo of artist-Guppy:


And one from yesterday (or Wednesday?), sleeping on a Squid...
