Breakfast Tuesday 7 April 2026

irisblue, and her sister are visiing the Auschwitz-Birkenau exhibition in Cincinnati today. She asked me to fill in for her a couple days while her and her sister spend time together.

Loretta made me a Swedish nut cake for my birthday. This morning I'm drinking my black coffee ☕️, and having a piece of Swedish nut cake.



Good Morning 🌞

Painfully bright sun this morning and 45. Not so good for me, but Ducky plopped down on the doormat in a hot spot and enjoyed his sauna.

I guess I'll have some cereal with strawberries, banana and almond milk soon. I'm procrastinating going down to the basement to straighten up. Tomorrow, I have the HVAC guys coming to do preventative maintenance on the system and I'm not sure they can easily get to the air handler in the basement.

Happy b'day Emile.

Filling is scrambled egg, broccoli, onion, turkey bacon bits, garlic, and a bit of chopped cabbage. Hot pepper flakes. Maybe chili sauce.

I always wince when my cat chooses the front door mat to lie on. Urrrrmmm, could you find a dirtier place ? Then he later will head for my bed or office chair. I have to protect these places with mats, which he assiduously tries to outwit.

Cats know exactly what you don’t want them to do, and then they do it.
