Morning fun: Candied walnut shortbread and Caraway-Pine nut-Red Pepper-Smoked Gouda savory biscotti. <\/p>\n

The shortbread is the walnut version of the pecan and almond versions. Of the three, the almond is my favorite. ( Pecan shortbread post<\/a>, Almond shortbread post<\/a> )<\/p>\n

The biscotti – more on them in another post but suffice to say…VERY good! -Especially with a glass of wine.<\/p>\n

A gloomy day but we all headed outside just before noon.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

“Phhht you darn kitten!”<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Bear is off to Beardog Point after being a bit pestered by Auggie.<\/p>\n

But Auggie was not to be deterred…<\/p>\n

The kitten wins.<\/p>\n

On to the adventure:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I did not climb that ladder.<\/p>\n

Hard to see but there are 2 trees very close…a very small one and a medium small one. Auggie went up the small one and got higher than he wanted to be.<\/p>\n

I think he would have come down on his own, but he was obviously a bit distressed and so was I.<\/p>\n

I knew that between the slope and the snow, there was no way I could safely go up the ladder, so arranged the blanket to entice Auggie onto the ladder. The blanket has an open weave that I knew his claws could grab and I thought the appearance would look safe to him.<\/p>\n

Success.<\/p>\n

That darn leader is darn heavy and by the time I got it over there, etc., etc. and Auggie down, I decided to put the ladder where I will probably need it next…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

It is warm, sloppy and melting today and I haven’t had to clear any of the roof yet, but it is to get colder and it is only mid-December so it is likely we will get more snow :) !!<\/p>\n

After all of that, I came in, took several Advil and had an early cocktail hour before a 2:00 p.m. late lunch.<\/p>\n
