Sure Manda, I've got some stashed away in Store Room #4. Would you like me to rub it gently all over your body? 😀

Always happy to help!

And with that, let's get to caffeine!

Lights on, Lady Dryad has cleaned up and we’re ready to go.

Tea Kettle is refilled and ready. There are pots of Yorkshire and Assam teas available on the sideboard, plus all the other fine teas in the box. Sachets of Swiss Miss are available, along with the usual mound of mini marshmallows.

Big Bertha has been cleaned, rinsed, and refilled, and is now perkin' away.

Today we're using Salt Spring Coffee, from Canada's Wet Coast, for that laid-back, mellow feeling.

This fine morning, we have coffee cake and butter tarts to go with your coffee and all you tarts…

I'm sure Lion will be along at any moment to spin some tunes for us!

Take care out there, 'K?

🇺🇲

let's not forget our Women USA hockey team that ALSO won 2-1 in overtime over Canda to secure GOLD

12 Gold medals sets a record in Winter Olympics

a record-setting performance at the 2026 Milan Cortina Olympics, .

🇺🇲

On the one hand, I has a sad that we didn't get any hockey gold this year.

On the other hand, the finals were both good, dramatic games so I can't complain too much.

Bring on 2030!!

And what is it with the USA finally grabbing gold in events it's been shut out of for decades? Alysa Liu's gold was the first women's singles gold for the US since 2002. She's a damn fine skater, by the way. Alysa almost retired in 2022 (retired at 16, WTF???) so not sure what her plans are going forward. She's doing international relations or something like that at UCLA so maybe can parley her skating success into some kind of diplomatic career (US IOC member perhaps?)
