It's Beginning to Feel a Lot Like Narnia . . .
. . . always winter and never Christmas, if you know what I mean. It has been snowing or grey since the beginning of December, and doesn't show any signs of stopping. But I will say that snow appeals to my work ethic, because if it is going to be cold and grey, it should at least be productive; like the opposite of storing up food for the winter: storing up your water for the desert summer.
The poor birds are getting a pretty raw deal in our neighborhood since there aren't any trees off our street. Sebi and I decided to make some more pinecone feeders yesterday. Sebastian took it very seriously, especially the part where he had to lick all the peanut butter off of his knife each time. It got entertaining once we got out the birdseed and he kept licking, stopping only to spit out the birdseed.
We hung four on the maple tree and four on a pine tree and they've had customers ever since. At least the birds are ready for the next snowstorm, which I hear is coming in tomorrow.
