lol … she’s doing well … just super curious. She doesn’t like to hear no…no…no or hey…hey…hey. That seems to stop her quickly 
Who wouldn’t want a Christmas Traa in their house?!

Work wouldn’t allow me to get outside and enjoy the unseasonably mild temps yesterday, but I did manage to get out today.

I’ve been working more on my color grading and really liked how this pic turned out. Taken at a vineyard in Napa.

This little guy was sitting on our deck railing this morning … presumably calling out for a lady friend.

Out for a hike the other morning and spotted this moss. In reality, those hairs / spores / whatever are only 1.25" or 1.5" tall.

My Semi-Homemade Fresh Fruit Birthday Cheesecake glazed with my Raspberry-Grand Marnier sauce.
I didn’t have it in me to make my standard cheesecake so the hubs got me one from the Gourmet line at Market 32 (fantastic cheesecake on its own btw). I topped it with my homemade favorite sauce and gave it a crown of fresh strawberries, raspberries, blackberries and blueberries. Then gave it a good glazing with the sauce. I was quite happy with how it turned out. The sauce is a piece of cake btw. 1 small jar of seedless raspberry jam or half a larger jar and half an airplane bottle of Grand Marnier. Bring to a boil just long enough to dissolve the jam and reduce slightly. If it gets too thick as it cools add a touch of warm water. Easy Peasy. 
I’m always fascinated by how pretty it turns out

Looks pretty delicious! Is that for someone’s birthday?

Yep … me LOL 
I love cheesecake but rarely have it … so it’s a must have for the old turning of the clock Since I’m not a huge frosting fan, I prefer it to the traditional b-day cake.

And it was quite delicious. I just love fresh berries with it

I relocated a small, gray jumping spider of some kind from the edge of the kitchen sink to the great outdoors over my lunchbreak today. My wife wouldn’t go within 2ft of the sink until I disposed of the offending creature. It’d been on the window for the past couple days, behind a potted plant.
The only sorts I refuse to simply relocate are brown recluse and black widows. Anything else generally gets trapped and set free outside in the back yard.
