Who’s the worst blogger in the land?? *points to self* I'm still unmotivated but thought I would do a quick update.
We’re having a snow day (weekend really, with blizzard warnings!) I haven’t been in a significant snowfall in a few decades Luckily, I don’t have to go anywhere and we’ve been enjoying chasing snowballs in the backyard. Kai LOVES the snow and Ripley is intrigued - asking to go out non stop to see the snow but then doesn't want to walk in it lol
This is my new favorite picture of Kai!
I’m actually getting some reading in. I’m listening to the audio of Black Buck by Mateo Askaripour (Goodreads) It’s super interesting so far thanks to the fantastic narration of Zeno Robinson as 22 year old Darren. He's intelligent but unambitious Starbucks barista who is discovered by the tech start up Sunwun CEO. Darren is brought into a cult like atmosphere of aggressive selling techniques and a wild work place.
Despite the subject matter, it’s been a funny, satirical and biting exploration of work culture and racism.And I’m also reading my physical copy of You Had Me at Hola by Alexa Daria (Goodreads) and it is so sweet and lovely.
And I’m whipping up a mini 6 inch German Chocolate Cake for Valentines Day. Wish me luck – I hate baking lol
What are you all up to?
I've heard good things about Black Buck! LOVE this picture of Kai. It's adorable!!!
ReplyDeleteMy mom LOVES german chocolate cake, so I am jealous on her behalf. hah Hope it turns out well!

It came out good!!! And the perfect size for 2.
DeleteThat pictures is adorable! Hope the cake goes well.
ReplyDeleteIt was yummy!
DeleteSorry, who are you? I think we've met before...🤔 😆
ReplyDeleteIt's cold as hell here, too (no snow though!). Kai is a big ball of fun!
Kai loves, loves, loves the snow. Ripley will play in it and loves the cold but not like Kai.
DeleteKai is too cute! ❤ not celebrating Valentine here, but the sun is finally out and the weather is glorious, so we might bbq something outside tomorrow 🤩
ReplyDeleteWe've been trapped inside for 3 days now lol I'm glad someone is having a nice day outdoors ha!
DeleteOhh I want to read that one too! I hope you had fun reading the snowy day away. :) Love snow days!
ReplyDeleteWe've been stuck inside for days now. They don't normally get this much snow and are totally unprepared lol
DeleteSnow :D
ReplyDeleteMmmm chocolate, pics please when done
I took a pic of the whole cake but forgot to take one of the inside. But it was good!
DeleteLove the pic... so cute. :) Hope the cake turned out!
ReplyDeleteIt did! And the perfect size for 2!
DeleteOh my gosh, that picture is adorable. And a Happy Valentine's Day to you and yours.
ReplyDeleteThanks Mary! They really loved the snow until it turned to ice lol
DeleteBut liked when it turned to slush - although I didn't like that part.
Oh! I have been LOVING your pics on Insta of the pups and snow. I remember the first year I lived in Seattle... it snowed about 2 inches and the whole place shut down. Then a few years later, we got a foot of snow - it was crazy, roofs collapsed. I hope you continue to have fun and enjoy the weather!
ReplyDeleteThanks.
DeleteYeah - they have NO idea what to do with snow out here lol It seems like the consensus is to just wait until it goes away. They barely plowed roads or parking lots and didn't shovel sidewalks.
I'm working on getting my blogging mojo back, trying to be a part of the community again. I got sucked into Bookstagram and neglected my dear blog! That is a cute pic of Kai. Love the snowy face!
ReplyDeleteI think I need to get my life mojo back lol
DeleteWhat a gorgeous snow dog picture! So cute!
ReplyDeleteHe was a happy little furball lol
DeleteI think I'm slowly rising to challenge you on the "worst blogger" category! lol I just can't at the moment.
ReplyDeleteI envy the snow! The UK got covered in the stuff recently and my area got nothing. Not even a flake. It was ridiculous. I LOVE snow. :(
The Kai picture is adorable. I loved the video of them chasing Kevin on Instagram too.
At first it was fun but our area doesn't usually get any and was totally unprepared so we were literally stuck in our house for 4 days. Couldn't even walk down the street because of ice.
DeleteBad bloggers unite!! Lol
Omg that pic of Kai ❤️❤️❤️ Milo likes to play in the snow but he’s such a knucklehead and has a wonky knee that pops in and out so I’m always worried he’s going to hurt himself. But it’s so cute to watch them frolic (or want to come back in immediately lol).
ReplyDeleteOooh Black Buck sounds really interesting. Added to Goodreads list!
He's the sweetest ball of floof :-)
DeleteRipley is, shall we say... not very graceful lol
I just finished Black Buck and I freaky don't know what to make of it. It would be an excellent discussion book.
Geeze, you seem to do a load of baking for not liking it. You're a trooper. 🍰
