Which topics would you like to be more informed about? I like trivia. I have decades of being a huge Trivial Pursuit and Jeopardy nerd under my belthyttt. My knowledge was vast, but pretty superficial outside my concentration. General information was my territory. Once upon a time, my hippocampus was on top of its game.Continue reading “Cat Lady Post – Cat Care, Birding, and Amateur Geology”

Reunite Me with a Book – The Mozart Season
What would your life be like without music? I’m no virtuoso. I learned piano for three years and still take forever to read notes or coordinate my fingers with what I’m reading. Despite my lack of talent, I adore music. I consider it integral to life. In fact, I love it so much that IContinue reading “Reunite Me with a Book – The Mozart Season”
From Over-the-top to Bare Minimum
How do you celebrate holidays? It really depends on which holiday it is. Understandably, some holidays get more attention than others. When the kids were younger, I wanted to make everything more special for them, give them pleasant experiences and memories, establish precious traditions for them… Well, I’ve learned that when they’re little, you haveContinue reading “From Over-the-top to Bare Minimum”
Disaster in the Kitchen
Write about your most epic baking or cooking fail. I didn’t know the first thing about cooking when I got married. I knew how to use a rice cooker and a microwave, but I was scared of the stove, especially of frying. Don’t even get me started on the oven. It was on a wholeContinue reading “Disaster in the Kitchen”
Late 20th Century Bizarre Cozy
My tastes are simple. Maybe they’re a little odd, but simple. I have no use for grand mansions (unless it’s my ancestral home, in which case, I’m also all about legacy, so, yeah, give it to my care along with the funds to maintain it) or high-end apartments with a stunning view of the cityContinue reading “Late 20th Century Bizarre Cozy”
Ten of My Fave Movies
What are your top ten favorite movies? Off the top of my head, these are ten of the movies I love. Give me a cozy day, and I’ll be popping one of these in the VCR (except I don’t have one anymore, not even a DVD player – that just depressed the heck out ofContinue reading “Ten of My Fave Movies”
Small-town City
What do you love about where you live? I live in a small city at the edge of the National Capital Region of the Philippines. Even though it’s part of Metropolitan Manila, it still retains the charms of its small town past. The founding clans are still present and active. They are also kith and/orContinue reading “Small-town City”
Captain Plan It
How do you plan your goals? Did you watch this cartoon back in the ‘90s? Were you already around in the ‘90s?😂 Anyway, I’ve never been the wing-it kind of person. I’ve had to train myself to be more spontaneous or, more accurately, not to freak out when presented with a last-minute anything. I onlyContinue reading “Captain Plan It”
Cozy Bookshop Dreams
If you were going to open up a shop, what would you sell? I’m not sure if I want to put it out there since, for somebody who doesn’t believe in jinxes, I’m pretty leery of jinxing it.😂 I’ve described this in detail to my sister. It would be a cottage all the way inContinue reading “Cozy Bookshop Dreams”
Freeze Dried Craze
What strategies do you use to maintain your health and well-being? It’s not about maintenance right now. There’s a whole lot to improve. Even if my most recent tests showed that I was in okay health (my pee did say I could drink more water, and my cholesterol levels are on the higher side, butContinue reading “Freeze Dried Craze”
