One week. One week of babysitting two of the most adorable cats you will ever meet.
My sister and her husband are on a week-long vacation for their anniversary, and I was more than happy to babysit their fur-babies. I am, after all, a very proud aunt. 😉
Just as a note, Stitch and Highstreet have convinced me that dogs aren’t the only ones who keep their owners in shape. 😉 We’ve had many wild chases around the house, games of hide and seek, and—of course—lots of cuddling time. These boys sure like to cuddle. 
And, really, nothing beats getting head-butted by a warm fuzzy kitty at the end of a hard, long day at work. These guys never fail to make me smile and laugh.
Speaking of hard, long days at work…
…Today I had a hard, long day at work. When I came home, I was completely frazzled out. A nap sounded more appealing than anything, but I pulled on my sneaks and headed out for a 3-mile walk instead. I know from experience that a bit of fresh air is almost always the perfect medicine. Well, that and a warm, delicious meal.
Tonight I chose some of my favorite, simple autumn flavors for dinner. Roasted brussels sprouts. Mashed garlic infused red potatoes. Smashed butternut squash with nutmeg. Baked cod with crumbs.
Everything came together in under 30 minutes which I liked. Everything tasted so perfect, so delicious, so healthy, which I loved. The perfect way to end a long, hard day at work.
Time for me to unwind and relax with a cup of raspberry tea and Biggest Loser!
