Holiday stuff is mostly packed away, the house is clean, and we’re collecting ourselves and the things we love most for the winter ahead. We’re hunkering down for any future storms coming.
Outside, this Pineapple Sage, named because crushed leaves smell somewhat like pineapple, is still blooming. We’ve had a few frosts, nothing extra hard yet, and still, this pretty perennial is still going. Avid gardener Mom’s already dreaming of where she’d like to transplant it to because where it’s at isn’t ideal. You have no space, Mom. It might have to stay where it’s at. Mom’s scheme is to swap it with something else because that’s how gardeners think in January.
Back inside where it’s much warmer, Tessa insists no one takes her blanket. We’re not sure when, exactly, this became HER blanket but have learned over the years, anything Tessa confidently stretches her paw over, in her mind, becomes hers. Until something better comes along.
Not everyone subscribes to Tessa’s claim the blanket is hers alone. Some cats have their own opinions on that matter.
Wait! We can do that??

Why yes, Viola…cats can do anything that they darn well like.
Tessa doesn’t look pleased that Quint is behind the blanket. I had two roses in bud because of the very mild autumn/winter, but this morning woke up to -8C. That will have put an end to them flowering.

Love seeing an outstretched leg as Tessa is doing.
It is one of the best compliments to letting you know how safe, secure & loved they are feeling!
Happy Healthy Joyful New Year to all in the Colehaus family!
Tessa looks shocked that Quint’s behind the blanket. And Viola, we bet Quint would make some room for you back there if you want!
