What's On Your Monday Menu, RNYer?
I forgot about your QOTD. When I was a teenager I collected cows. Cow stuffed animals, cow stuff everything. My mom got me a stuffed cow in a red party dress one year for valenties day. I named that stuffed animal Cowlotta Mootinez. I swear, even at 15 years old I was a hoot.
Now I collect squirrels. It started when I bought a cast iron squirrel nutcracker at a little antique store near my house. Now I have squirrel tshirts, a cookie jar, a bunch of squirrel figurines. I have expensive squirrels and even a lego squirrel. I have one squirrel figurine that is playing basketball. I don't even like basketball, wtf? All if it has been gifted to me. The only squirrel thing I have ever bought was that nutcracker. So I guess it's squirrel by gifting, right?

OMG, I collect cows too! Pieces of them, anyway. They're all in my freezer right now.
I hope I don't follow your trend and start collecting squirrel.

Your cow collecting is way better than mine!
And, I would totally eat a squirrel. But only if I had to because it was the end of the world or something.

I saw a baby squirrel a few months ago. It had fallen out of its nest and died. I have never, ever seen anything other than a fully grown squirrel other than that one time.
I find that very odd.

Good morning! Weekend was ok- super tired but was able to enjoy the nice weather a bit. Got the rose bushes trimmed down and got cushions for the new patio furniture. Argued with my husband about household projects and took my son to a birthday party! Why is weekend eating so much harder than weekday eating? I didn't go off plan or anything, but I've always struggled with wanting so snack more on the weekends. QOTD: I don't really collect anything except yarn. Yarn I buy with patterns in mind and great intentions, but because I'm such a slow knitter I don't get through it before I buy more with patterns in mind and great intentions:)

Good morning!
AV, I am impressed by your ability to come up with an interesting QOTD every day!
Before my latest cross-country move, my collections included antique glass, books, and chinoiserie. I sold or donated the bulk of the collections before I left (they were interesting, but not particularly valuable), and have decided to collect experiences instead of objects - they're easier to dust and file. :). I did keep my art books, though! And a ton of shoes, even though they aren't really a collection.
Food:
B: quick steel cut oats with added protein
L: roast sirloin tip and zucchini
D: ? - will have to check the freezer.
