It might be Monday, but these fuzzballs are still rocking the weekend autumn chill vibes. #CatsOfInstagram #FrankieAndFreddie

Mmmmmm, Lemon Bundt cake.

Today would have been my granny's 100th birthday. While she passed more than 5 years ago, her influence hasn't really waned. She was a rather remarkable human, full of joy and laughter and love, and I happily blame her for my wanderlust. :)

Good morning from these two adorable weirdos.

Despite the cute face, it's way too early for snacks.

Hello little (not so) danger noodle.

A day in the life of these fuzzballs. #HardCoreNapping #FrankieAndFreddie

For the record, this isn’t me - but also for the record, this looks like fun.

Whale whale whale. #Orca 🐳 🐋

Thar she blows.

What goes up, must come down.

Mountaintops are my happy place.

Peak to peak in 20 seconds. #whistler #blackcomb

Hullo Whistler. You’re looking rather spectacular today.

Sleepy kitties.

Fresh blueberry and banana bread.

I think Freddie and Frankie approve of their treat.

My work productivity is clearly taking a dip this morning.

Peach 🍑 raspberry and blueberry 🫐 crumble - made under the watchful eye of Frankie.

One! Two! Three! FOUR!!!
