Work bestie’s birthday cake was a success. Devil’s food cake for my favorite Spade Brother obsessed L.O.R.D.S. diehard book girlie.

Absolutely nobody:

Me: I’m gonna make 7 pounds of #cookie dough at 9pm.

I ran an experiment with our snickerdoodle cookies- baking as a ball or a disk. The disks had a better density and texture for packing into lunches, but the ball of dough gave that expected pretty crackle on the top I want in a snickerdoodle #cookie

I kind of forgot I had bluesky and skylight accounts. I really don’t want to separate things here like I did on the clock app, so all of the books, crafts, and cooking are coming here in one big pile. 🍪

Let’s make cookies for a dad joke.

I admit I forgot I had a skylight account until the clock app announcements today.

Reading is political.

Reading has always been political.

Your favorite characters wouldn’t just sit by and watch. They’d get up and burn some shit to the ground.

This message is for @mm-rees.bsky.social so if you’re not her, you can be nosy anyway. Ma’am. MA’AM! The last half of The Oracle’s Journey that I just read on the plane is everything I needed for romantasy. The combat, the magic, the SPICE! 5⭐️ & devouring the next book on this next flight. #booksky

Investing in nice luggage is my favorite purchase ever.

I can’t think of a better time to make sure I wear this to work every day. 🏳️‍🌈

About halfway through Oracle’s Journey by @mm-rees.bsky.social after last night and thoughts so far-

Really well-written characters with unique personalities, interesting story so far, easy to follow combat scenes.

I hate when I finish a book that’s been so high recommended and have no desire to read book two. So many times a book series gets better after book one, but I just don’t have it in me to push through this week. Looking for recommendations on something with romantasy or vampire vibes. #booksky

If you have anyone in your life that is LGBTQIA+, no you don’t. If you know anyone trans or non-binary (especially minors), no you don’t. If you know anyone undocumented, no you don’t. If you know anyone who’s not Christian, no you don’t. Now is not the time to leave digital footprints to them.

Unedited iPhone shot of the coast in Northern California during my visit last month.

That’s it. That’s the post. I just figured you might need something pretty to break up your timeline this morning. Hang in there. 💜🖤

Reposting this as I’ve gotten more followers on here- My MIL is here on Bluesky and Twitch. Not only did she raise the absolute LOML, but she teaches people how to craft and shows her adorable dogs on stream. (My Christmas gift in the photo 🥹) #crafters #crafty

The task today to avoid the dread of what’s happening this afternoon is to make friends. Find connections with people that understand why you’re sad and still want to find a way to experience joy after today too.

Bluesky keeps showing me cross stitch content so now I’m just like 🤔 hmm, I guess I *do* need a new hobby don’t I?
For Wee John, the pyro 🔥

Pattern by Sheynamakes on etsy, and I added the text on top

Fun thing 🙄 that happens when I make bread for French toast- turning around to see my partner and kids silently eating it behind my back like a bunch of sneaky vultures.

When I know I’m going to use it this way, I triple the amount of honey I normally use in sourdough or double for yeast bread. 🍯

How important this is for today, for so many reasons. 🖤

It definitely seems like they’re listening to us in the best way.

We had to get in on the video action too — Bluesky now has custom feeds for video!

Like any other feed, you can choose to pin these or not. Bluesky is yours to customize.

Tiktok is back but it’s suspicious as all hell. Can we still connect here and better apps when they launch? @pissedoffbartender.bsky.social told us to keep the boots out of our mouths and I intend to if Tiktok shifts.

Mocktail and a musical. I’ve been waiting so impatiently to see Six since it was announced. #sixthemusical
