My bestie went to the ren faire, and tried to find me a souvenir spoon (I collect odd spoons) since I couldn't attend due to chronic health issues. There were no spoons present, so he asked the blacksmiths there to make one.
This was so thoughtful, I nearly cried.
A new, cherished treasure. 🖤

When your hoard is comprised of all the creative chaotic potential in craft materials, no cursed artifact can compare 🖤

..It may require a gold hoard to obtain in trade, however XD

A teeny tiny brown spotted toadlet sits on a lily pad. Its eyes are so large and it is so small. It's nose is very pointy.

A picture of a fake article with a picture of Gale Dekarios from Baldur’s Gate 3 in the middle. The above text says “Gale Dekarios, hero of Baldur’s Gate visits orphanage” while the bottom text says “it’s heartbreaking to look into those sad, hopeless eyes.”

An art nouveau-style illustration of Tyranny from Critical Role. Tyranny is a pink-skinned tiefling with yellow goat-like eyes, upright horns, claws, and a devilish tail. She wears teal-blue robes with ruffles and celestial embroidery, as well as a matching headdress. She has straight white hair that flows past her shoulders and short bangs. In the frame behind her are motifs of the lunar cycle, a sun, and flaming hearts wrapped in thorny vines with arrows through them.

Photo from my collection, writing on the back says “General Nuisance. Summer 1954”.
Photo of a longhaired tortie cat lying on a sunny sidewalk with grass lawn on either side. It has a round little dark object in front of it, a toy maybe.

An illustration of a character perched in the branches of a large tree. She has flowing braided hair and a headdress that appears to be antlers intermixed with leaves and flowers. Her gown is layered in leaves. Butterflies float around her head.

Picnic for garbage babies. 💕 Photo from my collection, no date/info.
Black and white photo of a cat and what are presumably her three kittens. They are all right on top of an old fashioned metal trash can outdoors which has been covered with a white cloth. There is a bowl of something in the middle and they are all eating from it. They seem ginger to me!

"What would the world be, once bereft
Of wet and of wildness? Let them be left,
O let them be left, wildness and wet;
Long live the weeds and the wilderness yet."
