Nice

A very pretty day here, if a bit breezy.  The sky in Autumn is always such a clear and different blue than other times of year.

It's also a pretty day in Springfield, Illinois, where my son is for a few days.

This is the State Capitol.  Such a gorgeous building.  I am incredibly envious of him being there.  There'll be more Lincoln-related photos to come, I'm sure.

The new sweater is progressing nicely.  That size 15 needle really speeds things along.  I've tried a couple of times to get a picture of it for you, but to no avail.  Maybe when the whole back is done.

Otherwise, today had me filling the last space in Equine Alley.  One print a horse on a couch, one a lion.  I keep feeling I've found all the animals-on-couches prints, but more keep turning up.

I also baked some oatmeal cookies, as much to cover the stench of the chicken livers I cooked for Tap as anything.  So awful.  The cookies are really good.  About half of them I left plain, the other half I added pecans to.  If I can add pecans to anything, I will.  I've nothing against oatmeal raisin cookies, and chocolate chip ones can be good, but I decided to keep these simple.

I love a good oatmeal cookie!
I fill a small crockpot full of meat for Pup about once a week so I know that smell. I made her some "mutt balls" this morning with some ground turkey that didn't smell all that bad.
