Annus Librorum, or 'A Year of Books', will be a page devoted to my crafts and hobbies. Come sit a spell.
Been a minute since my last post so here's a new basket I've been working on! Huge improvement from my last basket and it's incredible to see them side-by-side for comparison (last photo). Never stop pushing yourself!

Needed a warming soup after a snowy day. Potato, carrot and great northern bean soup with some toasted homemade bread. Probably one of my favorite soups in years.

The right wants to blame immigrants for all of the country's problems? Okay, how's about we deport this UNELECTED immigrant as he commits ACTUAL CRIMES?

Today's my 100th day sober! It's been a long and challenging string of months, with many ups and downs, but I made it to the first 100. I couldn't be more proud of myself. This number will grow, and I along with it. Here's to the next 100!

The space is still coming together but I'm over the moon about this. 😭

New crochet project in the works! I'm currently learning to make a basket to hold my skeins! Really just trying to use up scrap skeins at this point.

I will not give in to the lies. I will not give into the fear. Post it on your social media so people can hear from you too.

Pass it on.

For those who might be unaware or just getting a library card: libraries are for more than just books! Many have a Library of Things with a variety of tools & equipment you can check out. Bike pumps, sewing machines, yard games, even power drills, for hobbies & home needs. #booksky

Seeing a 'Don't Tread On Me' license plate on a tesla feels rather oxymoronic after recent events.

Just got this baby in the mail today! I need a new ink ribbon but everything works! Can't wait to see what projects emerge from it. 🤩

NEW: The United States has reported its first outbreak of H5N9 bird flu in poultry on a duck farm in California.

Perhaps this is not the best time to put an anti-vaxxer crackpot in charge of our public health agencies

Gotta get back into sharing my food escapades. From-scratch pizza with pepperoni, Italian style venison sausage and olives. Easily my January favorite.

History is doomed to repeat itself lest we learn from it. @parkroseperma.bsky.social is becoming one of my favorite youtube creators right now. She's always on it when it comes to anti-captialist and anti-Trump education.
