I suppose I should apologize for the jumble of wires beside my television. I realize this would drive most people crazy, but I'm not most people; I've actually grown rather attached to that mess of wires.
Don't watch too closely, or you'll see my unmade bed in one of the pictures, too. Cliff's gone for a couple of days; when the cat's away, the mouse will play.
Yes, Iris is absolutely hypnotized throughout this show. She loves the cowboys and the kids and Ree and the cooking. She does, however, have a problem with the dog and all the horses and cows on the show. Since the sound of the show is running in the background, this video may get pulled off Youtube. If it doesn't show up for you, you'll know what happened.

Pioneer Woman came to me in a dream.
Folks, I am seriously not making this up. Last night I dreamed I was at Ree Drummond's ranch. I met Ree, Marlboro Man, and one of the girls. (The girls look a lot alike, and after all, it was a dream, so I'm not sure which one; but at my request, she took a picture of me with her mom.) Evidently I spent the night at the ranch, because I was there as Ree was making breakfast. Unfortunately, I woke up before breakfast was ready.
Just my luck.
So I pondered this dream, and what might have brought it on.
I've been following Ree's blog, "The Pioneer Woman", since back in the days when she only had about 50 comments a day and talked about calf nuts and panties a lot. (Not in the same entries, of course.) Honestly, I feel as though I know her, so that alone could have caused the dream.
Now, if you are one of those people who gag every time you see the words "Ree Drummond" or "Pioneer Woman", just move along. There's no need to leave a comment. You have your opinions, I have mine.
Back to the dream: I took an over-the-counter sleeping pill last night. I suppose that might have been responsible for the dream, although those pills don't usually cause me to dream.
And then I realized: Ree has a Christmas show coming up on Food Network this Saturday! Not only that, but she has a new cookbook ready that comes out on March 13.
She wants me to spread the word! Can you believe I'm getting subliminal messages from Ree Drummond? In my sleep?
Her show airs this Saturday at 11 A.M. central time, but it will be repeated a few times. Click HERE for all the times. To see what she as to say about her new cookbook, click HERE.
I'm not making it up about the dream. You know, they say if you tell a dream before breakfast, it will come true.
Just my luck.

Pioneer Woman on TV
Thanks to the DVR, I haven't missed a single episode of Ree Drummond's show on Food Network. Not only that, I've kept all but one episode on the DVR so I can watch them again. I didn't come up with this brilliant idea of keeping them until after I had deleted the first one. Obviously, I am a diehard Pioneer Woman fan.
I've never been a fan of cooking shows. At my age, I've accumulated all the recipes I'll ever need, and then some. And let's face it, Ree doesn't exactly cook health food. I've probably only tried three or four of the recipes in her cookbook, simply because of the high calorie content. It isn't her cooking that makes me love the cookbook or her show; it's the scenes from the ranch.
For instance, I finally got to hear Marlboro Man and the kids talking! I've read The Pioneer Woman blog for years, and seen all the pictures, but now I know what each member of the family sounds like. Watching Ree's show is like being invited to the ranch, only I don't have to worry about what to wear or how to act. Cliff, by the way, enjoys the show with me.
There are only two more episodes left, although I'm sure the whole series will be shown over and over again. Food Network might want her to do shows, and Ree may want to do more episodes. Time will tell.
Meanwhile, I hear she is working on another cookbook.
I do wish they'd put the TV episodes on the Internet for those PW fans who don't have satellite or cable. I guess we can't have everything.
I have not yet bought a copy of the book Ree wrote for children, "Charlie the Ranch Dog". I do intend to buy one, though. After all, I have a great-granddaughter.
