Lime green patch with green and pink stitching on olive green knit shirt.
Yellowish, orangeish, round wool patch with mostly green stitching covering a small hole on olive green knit top.
The mending fest continues. Thought I'd gotten both holes in this old @jjillstyle knot top, then I found a third this morning. Off to tackle that one now.

Visible mending "patches" of embroidery in blue and greens on a lime green sweater.
The mending fest continues. This is an ancient Old Navy sweater, very lime green. Love it, but it's got a number of holes in it. These are shoulder bends. On to the front!

Since spring's come soooo very early, I had to get to some visible mending on my favorite, lightweight cardigan.

A messy plate of bursting sushi rolls revealing their contents, next to a white ramkin of tamari
I made the ugliest gluten-free sushi rolls but, holy moly! Delicious!! Tinned tuna, chili crisp, cuke, Kewpie mayo, crisp rice cereal. They turned out as canoes, rather than rolls. #UseWhatYouHave #glutenFree #FoodSky

After a big project, gather all the pencils left on your desk. Use only those 'leftovers' to create your next piece. A fun, zero-waste creative prompt.

In this week's addition of 'What Karen cooks', we have hearty lamb stew. Served with a @warburtonsuk wholemeal protien pocket. Tasty and warming on this damp, chilly Sunday. xx

Giant yarn ball in yellow (there are all rainbow colours within the ball, just hidden under a yellow layer right now) with a crochet hook with a handmade handle in yellow and grey.
This ball of yarn is HUGE.
I ripped back the round rainbow blanket I made last year from one of those big yarn cakes.
I used the blanket last year, but not very intense because it was small.
So I ripped it back and it will be part of the new one.
❤️

A grey crocheted doily on a white cabinet in front of a red wall
A bouquet of fake flowers in a glass pickle jar on top of a doily
Today I decided this cabinet belonged in the entryway, not the bathroom. Then I decided it needed something on top.
Some fake flowers in an empty glass pickle jar and a homemade doily from scrap yarn. A whole vibe for exactly $0

An open sketchbook with a sketch laying on a concrete floor. It’s a black brush drawing on a pre-colored page with an orange spraycan.
My sketch from the last #BerlinUsk Urban Sketchers meeting at #Holzmarkt.
Heavily inspired by @meartwerks.bsky.social, I found an old neon orange spray can in my stach. Combined with my Pentel brush pen it’s a nice combo.

A nonstick 7qt caldera sits on a black stovetop at top. A green silicone ladle with a metal handle is rising up from the contents of the caldera to better show the ingredients. It holds a brothy tomato and chicken bouillon based soup with many baby carrots, some chunks of boneless skinless chicken tenderloin, a few jalapeno slices, and a smattering of rough cut white onion leftovers from the fridge. Just barely visible in the ladle are a few short skinny noodles from the instant soup mix. At the bottom right of the picture lies an open red cardboard box. It is labeled, in part: Lipton KOSHER Soup Secrets Noodle Soup Mix Natural Chicken Flavor, with white print and a green ribbon as part of the packaging design. Next to the box, on our left, we see part of a square white plate.
Nobody was eating these Lipton instant chicken noodle soup packets, so I added them to a bunch of water, frozen chicken and jalapeno slices, fresh baby carrots and onions, canned tomatoes and tomato paste 😊 #food #homecook #usewhatyouhave
I love this clip and tips from Auntie's inspiring garden in Thailand! And wish i had a nearby bamboo stand for gathering garden stakes! (I do use prunings as well)

Ok, not as fun, and these beans were canned, but I had to laugh when I spotted this being made in my kitchen just now by the same human who made the burrito I posted yesterday 😆😂 #food #homecook #usewhatyouhave #lunch
