Really selling the North today, y'all.

Maybe next time go for the chip flavors and not the frozen doom piles.

A loaf of bread cut to revel an almond solid crumb and odd purple grey color. Many things went very wrong here.

No it does in fact not taste okay even if my husband is trying to convince me it's not that bad.

I was holding the loaf preparing to saw into it and my spouse commented "you're holding it like a wrap" and I handed it to him

"Oh she dense!"

Thank you

Thank you

A very very flat loaf of possibly slightly burnt bread

Yeah that bread is not gonna be alright.

Thank you

I started a new knitting project and took it to poll worker training. I am now home again and wondering what is next for me (baking the sourdough fail).

I have been working on my first attempt at a gluten free sourdough loaf (which is frankly going poorly).

A raised bed with two rows of heavily rabbit nibbled pak Choi on the left, and peas growing up tomato cages on the far long edge, and disturbed soil in front of the camera where the lettuce just went in.

Six resin half barrel planters full of soil all lined up on my deck

Then I did some gardening, planted lettuce, and started mixing and filling my big barrels.

A quilt top made up of alternating stars and hexagons. The hexagons are off white solids and low volume prints and the six pointed stars are shades of blue, green, and purple. The quilt top is hanging on a porch railing on a sunny morning.

Today has been a busy day.
This morning finished a quilt top, fully handsewn with the EPP method.

Still upset my parents settled a tree law case for basically nothing. Neighbor on the far side of the hill cut down 10 ACRES of dense lumber. Just had her timber guys cut through the fence and clearly marked boundaries. They could have been set for life.

I always take a day off for my birthday and encourage others to do the same. I usually end up doing various tasks I've put off and puttering around doing whatever feels right in the moment

Not to mention using hay would attract more pests because it's full of FOOD

Ah yes, you are also familiar with popular culture using your native dialect as shorthanded for unintelligence. (Appalachian).

So sorry, deleted.

Okay, sorry. Had to make sure as a fellow person who had to unlearn their accent.

Make cars use less fossil fuels don't make them less functional.

There's no traction, no storage, no place for a child to safely ride.

I mean, it’s not wrong.

Kids in ICE Detention Up 10x in Trump’s Second Term Advocates warn trauma from detentions will cause kids lifelong damage.

Advocates warn trauma from detentions will cause kids lifelong damage.

If Chicago gets an inch of snow life moves on, if Atlanta gets an inch of snow your conference will grind to an absolute halt. February has huge potential for disaster in the South. It doesn't make sense.

I didn’t know this, did you? Amazing!

But pls note! We have a closed primary here in Ky. And you can ONLY vote in the primary if you have been "continuously registered" as an R or D between Dec. 31 and the primary itself

So don't go switching your registration now, you will lock yourself out of voting in the primary!

And by sat down I took my nail polish off, oiled my nails, and marked the lines on a bunch more of my tiny hand patchwork. Now I am overseeing bedtime and my schedule after that is putting laundry away and my own hygiene. Gonna sleep hard tonight.

I folded the laundry but only put away the portion in the kid's room. I can do the rest after he goes to bed. Cut out 3 projects after dinner so I have things to work on when I'm in the mood, made dinner, oversaw some child hygiene, washed dishes, cleaned the fish tank, and finally sat down.

Sadly I don't think I can cheat and put on an EP.

Today I have gardened, been to the hardware store, gardened some more, mopped the kitchen, and prepped two sewing patterns. Now I need to fold laundry for the length of one hipster album and then I can play with fabric again.

Been gardening but it's getting too hot to keep going. Trying to actually listen to my body on that.

Yup, although I accidentally did it inside out and just topstitched it down, so don't be me.

A green lap desk with a book light clipped to the top edge scattered with tiny fabric squares sewn into 4 patches, various tools and a box full of more squares ready to be seen up.

And if you thought I was done crafting for the night ... #sewsky #quiltsky
