plants and pretty / bev cooks

Frrrrrrrrrrrrrar! Dar! Flar! Sar! I really don’t have much for you today. This week, on the contrary, has felt so nice. I’ve kept busy and steady in a rhythm that just works for me. Is my basement dry? Not after the rain we got. Is that okay? We’ll get there. It’s better, but not perfect. […]

pretty scene / bev cooks

Frrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! Okay, two crazy things. And when I say crazy I mean ONE is crazy and the other just sucks. But we’ll make it. The first thing though, my watch fell off! But listen. You need the story. It’s actually weird. In order to take my watch off (which is on my right wrist), you […]

pretty flowers / bev cooks

Frrrrrrrrrr! Flllllllll! (<–that worked better in my head.) Okay first of all, let it be fully known that I despise AI. Loathe it. Can’t stand it. Wish it would burn to the ground. But! Who here gets sucked into those damn AI videos on IG when it’s like, a show that you watched, and they’re […]

tulips / bev cooks

Frrrrrrrehdeh! Flehtsehm! Do you want to know what the world needs now? (besides love, sweet love) A MINI PLUNGER. I said what I said. A mini plunger! You can also call it baby plunger if you’re lacking a substantial amount of joy in your life. We’ve had an issue with our (newish!) garbage disposal (as […]

estate sale / bev cooks

Frrrrrrrrrrrrrrurdurdoodoodayday! You guys! I have news. Yesterday when I went to check the weather on my phone, the weather app went into RETRO MODE and it looks exactly like the ’90s. Not that there were apps in the ’90s, but it looked liked TV! The font and the graphics were the exact same. The exact […]

tulips / bev cooks

Frrrrrrrrrrring freak! Sorry, I mean – spring break! I have the lit-e-ral best news ever on the planet to share. Just get ready. Sit down. Stand up. No wait, sit back down. Natalie came to me earlier this week and said, “Mom, I’ve decided it’s time to watch Gilmore Girls. Will you watch with me?” […]

little kitchen scene / bev cooks

Frrrrrrrrrrrrrieeeeediiiieeeeaaaaayyyyyyaaaahhhhhhh. I’m mildly embarrassed but also obsessed to announce that my family is currently in love with chocolate pudding. As in, boxed chocolate pudding. The little boxes, ya know? Not the little boxes on the hillside made of ticky-tacky and they all look just the same. Not those. But the kind of little boxes where […]

valentine's kitchen / bev cooks

Frrrrriiiiiiiiiiilanetine’s Fay! (<–sorry) Ya know what’s weird? I forget about figure skating for three and a half years and then the moment I watch again it I remember it’s my favorite thing in the world. In the entire world! Like, since I was a child! And then after the Olympics I forget again. Ha! Don’t […]

heart balloons / bev cooks

Frrrrrrrrrrrrrrallydallydoop! Am I the only person who needs to know what time it is? At all times? Especially when I wake up in the night. Tell me this, are you capable of waking up, being aware that you’re awake, rolling over and closing your eyes again and not checking your phone or a clock for […]

snowy morning / bev cooks

Frrrrrrrrrrrrreeeedeeerrrlleeeedeeeee! You know what I never understand? And tell me if you agree, or even notice this. In books, why does the main character, or any character for that matter, always turn their phone off in a moment of stress or crisis? Like they turn their phones OFF. And I just don’t feel like people […]
