Muffins and some cats

We got another couple of inches of snow on Saturday, so I caught a ride to work. I could probably have gotten my car out, but it was a closing shift, and I was afraid that with new snow sitting on top of what we already had, I might not see my path in the dark and might have trouble getting back in the driveway. (During a snow a couple of years ago I ended up in my neighbor’s yard, lol.) Since I had yesterday off, I spent about 20 minutes shoveling , just to knock down the high spots. I have chronic back problems, so 20 minutes was plenty. Before I went out, I made a batch of Banana Nut Muffins, adding some of the blackberries I had put in the freezer from last summer. With a cup of coffee, it was a nice little reward when I came back in from shoveling!

Our library had another puzzle swap this week. I had planned to go but with the weather being what it has, I never made it over there. The cold weather has definitely put me in puzzle mode, so I pulled this one out of my closet and started it. It’s very cute, but the pieces are a little smaller than I like, and a lot of the cats are similar in color and markings so it may take me awhile to get it done.

But hey, I have all winter, right?
