Well in case you change your mind, the knitting tutorial is on YT. These are for a charity, but human says making them was a favour to her brain cuz she learned a lot knitting this new pattern 😊

A pair of chill bears 😊

Green and blue Teds are rare… maybe we should buy some more green wool!

Thank you! Hopefully they will cheer up young children someday!

We think small children will like those bright colours!

We’re good! Well human has had trouble with her vocal cords, but it’s nothing serious. Nice sunny weather here!

Good morning! Human been knitting, and look what happened! Two emotional support teddies, ready to leave home and make the world a better place ❤️ #traumateddy

Would there be any interest in reviving #StuffieBakeOff here on Bluesky? Not exactly like @kennykoalabear.bsky.social's, but similar. Still working out how to run it with no clicky polls, but want to judge interest before I think more about how.

Unfortunately our life isn’t interesting enough to be worth spying on 😂 (That’s what I say to our next door neighbours.)

Well normally we say no thank you to cookies… will the Irish tourism board spy on us? 🤔

@ericbearshug.bsky.social Hey Fairylight, is this the lifesteam we watched last year? #wintersolstice www.discoverboynevalley.ie/whats-on/win...

It was! The plums are from our own garden, so they have that tree-ripened flavour 😋

Massage and strech… always a good idea 😊

Hello friends! I’m sorry I haven’t been around much lately 🙃 Anyway, we’re baking a #plumtorte today, it’s about to go into the oven. Jacques is supervising 😊

#kaj #esc Yksi kaksi kolme SAUNA 🏆

A quick hello from the #cottage! Been busy oiling #outdoorfurniture. Weathered wood is so beautiful IMO ☺️

Sound up furiends! Yksi kaksi kolme SAUNA! #kaj #esc

Well it’s different from any other berry or fruit. Tastes a bit like mango. Cold pressed juice is “oily”, and the oil is supposed to be super healthy 👍🏻 We drink sea buckthorn juice sweetened or make a nice layered “kisel” type dessert with custard 😋

The #seabuckthorn is a wild fruit shrub but it can be cultivated commercially. The berries, rich in vitamins and antioxidants are considered a #superfood. The taste is something like mango x citrus fruits 🧡 Image from an allotment garden.

I always enjoy going to the market! They still have fresh cranberries. Saw some #cranberry and #seabuckthorn juice. You get a discount if you take 3 bottles 👍🏻

This is one of our Christmas traditions. We’ll leave some for the humans, it’s Christmas after all 🤣🌟

Here’s one for you! The ones that aren’t perfectly symmetrical are the most interesting. And then there’s the taste & smell of saffron 😋

The one that’s shaped like a 18th century wig is “the priest’s hair” obviously 😃

They’re traditional Christmas buns, sweet, the dark bits are raisins. They have a nice yellow colour although you can’t really see it in photos. Different shapes have names like “the priest’s hair” 😃

Okay, we made saffran buns today. I was a bit time consuming, but worth it. The round one on top is called The Wheel of Sun, perfect on #wintersolstice 😊🎄🌟

#Saffran is the word of the day in my house. We’re baking. Will post photos later 🎄🌟

Happy winter solstice!
