What's up buttercup?

I don't tend not to cross post much of my Instagram to this blog, so here's a snapshot of what I've been up to lately.

Azores Island Hopping | Faial

25th anniversary trip got off to a rocky start with canceled flights, but here we are wallowing in beautiful Horta. #faial #azores #travel #marinadahorta #25down25togo


Enjoying that famous 'Azores High' with long rambles to get fab views of #Horta. #ilovetheazores #montedaguia



The views get better round every turn. I kid you not. #getoutside ##hiketheazores #montedaguia



Postcard snapshots. #snailmail #happymail



Lucked out with lovely weather for our final morning in #Horta. Even shy Pico shed her layers of clouds to grace us with her presence. Spent our final hours strolling again around #marinadahorta admiring the open air painting gallery. These are created by sailors who crossed the Atlantic, no small feat, and oh what tales they tell. #boats

National Siblings Day

It's National Siblings Days here in the States. I wonder who comes up with these holidays. Still, it gave me a reason to look through some old photo albums, and this one of all my sibs is from bygone days that feel like from a different lifetime.

CY 365 Update

If you are regular reader of this blog, you might be wondering if I've quit on the CY 365 project. Absotutely not. I'm no quitter. I still post daily to my Instagram account, but have decided to not re-post those entries here are well. So, if you want to follow along, you can see what I'm up to here.

Derby Day

Yesterday the 141th running of the Kentucky Derby, and Derby Day calls for Man-O-Wars. Had to teach two local bartenders in Manchester, Vermont how to make them. Neither place had basil (don't get me started), so we made do with mint. Delish. P.S. Way to go American Pharoah!  Cheers.

Currently reading

I've been wonderfully distracted by my sister who is in town for a month long visit, so have not been keeping up with my blog as often.  In the meanwhile, I am posting regularly over on Instagram, so you can see what I'm up to there - including pics of what I'm currently reading.

Shelfie

Picked up a new batch of library books, mainly graphic novels. Lots of books, not enough time is a good problem to have.

Snow and more snow

Here in the Boston are we have had about 9 feet of snow in the past 3 weeks. Kinda crazy. And if that were not enough, we are also having record cold temperatures. Here are some pics from today.


Our driveway is getting narrower after each storm. Pretty soon we'll have to leave the cars behind and snowshoe out. 


Another foot and a half of fresh powdery snow. Windchills in the -35F ahead, and the furnace has stopped working. Grateful that we have power. Life could be worse. There could be zombies at my door.

Movies for a snowday

We are in the midst of another winter storm here in the North East. Good thing I picked up some movies at the library before the snow started falling. Am always looking for something good to watch on the treadmill.  Bring on another snowday or three!
