For years there were no baked goods on Etsy but then some restriction on home baking for money was lifted and Etsy became a bake shop. I've ordered cookies from various Etsy shops before and always been disappointed. But, I tried once more and think I've found my cookie home.

I got 1 pound of assorted cookies from Lynn's Cookies and Pops. The shipping rates were really high but when it got here, I understood. This woman could safely send babies via USPS. Holy moly. Also, each kind of cookie was wrapped separately so their flavors/scents don't mingle. I only ate 1. A molasses cookie. It was enough for me to know that I am a repeat customer. She also does special orders so I can get exactly what I want. I'm so jazzed.

I just discovered yet another gift that the pandemic giveth. The Seattle Mens Chorus Christmas Concert. My very favorite but often a bitch to get to. Last year they held it in a concert hall that is horrible to get to and they had no matinee. So I didn't even go. This year... it's online!! I don't know how they are going to do it but I don't care, I'll get to 'go'. Yeah!!

And finally, I dug this old tuffet/cat be out of the closet a week or so ago. Biggie was ignoring the not-nearly-as-pretty cat bed he loved last year and I was tired of looking at it. So I put it away and brought out this one. He ignored it, too. Until today. He's been taking all his naps right here on the sofa next to me. I love listening to his little snore.

Cats snoring is a great sound.

You know, I noticed the explosion of bake goods on Etsy and was going to make a post about "Who the heck buys food off of etsy" then i realized i had gone on a spree of buying freeze-dried foods last year.
So it's me, and now it's you.

Oh no!I could have saved you $$

I didn't like Avocado. I haven't tried the other two, but have found that freeze-dried cheesecake, ice cream and cheese nifty.
Did you see the freeze-dried candy corn?

The texture of candy changes. I'm not 100% sure what it would do on Candy Corn, but skittles and malt balls get bigger and puffy and have a different mouth feel.

The candy is fun to try. The freeze dried ice cream is dangerous.

Biggie looks so pretty on the blue! I love it when cats who are purring drift off to sleep and between the purring and the snoring there's an intermediate sound: the snurr.

Cat snores are so adorable. I was having trouble concentrating during some meeting yesterday because I could hear Pandora snoring from the next room.
