(Old) Heading to the land of penguins in the MMP

I love those sort of pop-up festivals. I once watched a roller coaster fall over so never trusted the rides but I’ll still eat fair food despite knowing how bad things are in the “kitchens”. I mostly go for the vendors but I always take a wander around the farm exabits so I can admire all of the fancy critters.

I’ve noticed a lot of kids on leashes at that sort of thing, is that something Daughter could do? One of the cutest things I ever saw was little blond quads in matching outfits being walked by their long suffering older brother.

The highly anticipated storm finally arrived today. The ground got wet.

I spent most of the day stitching with a science channel going and hubs told me that he’s pretty sure the moon landing didn’t happen. People can’t survive in space. He also says that he doesn’t believe in god, but thinks that Intelligent Design is why there are fake dinosaur bones in museums. The main reason he gets so upset when I get vaccinated is because he needs me to outlive him (this is a true thing, he won’t be able to afford to enjoy his current standard of living without my retirement income) and the COVID shots are going to kill me.

I am so glad that weed is legal out this way.

In other news, yesterday I made the best Shrimp Fettuccini Alfredo I have ever had. Of course it was two years in the making but so worth it! I’m thinking the only way to make it better is to learn how to make pasta myself (and win the lottery so I can have fresh shrimp drone delivered to my door)…but that isn’t going to happen, so I will keep sucking up to my pasta making friend.

I spent most of my day stitching in front of the window and saw our local Loggerhead Shrike get a Little Brown Tweetie Bird. I’d been seeing it on the fence and thought it was probably enjoying the bird feeder, today was the first time I was sure. Dang, those things are FAST!!!
