New Day Cafe - Saturday: Miscellaneous Stills and Vids [1]

['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.']

Date: 2025-01-11

Good morning, Newdists. We are getting more snow/ice tonight into tomorrow. Overnights will be in teens. I have given up on watching the news. I'm rarely on line anymore. In the evenings I’ve taken up Hamish Macbeth books, written by M.C. Beaton. There are 29 books. I’m excited. After that group of books, I plan on moving on to mysteries solved by Welsh PC Evan Evans, written by Rhys Bowen.

Three of my cousins had to move out of their home in anticipation of the Cal fire, and moved in with my aunt in Pasadena. Although she may have to move too… I hope not. My heart hurts for all the people and all the animals caught up in that conflagration.

Onwards —

That look of contentment —

x 1/11 Musical eyes.

Have a safe and happy weekend everyone.

Friday evening with RLK KA85.https://t.co/9A481yzTMW pic.twitter.com/nyjwC4vVLb — RoyalAlbatrossCam (@RoyAlbatrossCam) January 10, 2025



x Meet this mysterious beautiful hibiscus!



It’s a flower that turns heads, but it’s still waiting for a name that truly captures its essence.



We’re inviting you, our creative and flower-loving community, to suggest a name that feels just right for this stunning plant.
