明けましておめでとう！
I have a tradition of spending New Year’s Day drawing the zodiac animal of the incoming year. This year’s the fire horse! 🔥🐎
The flames gave me a lot of trouble but I’m happy with how they turned out.

Hello BlueSky, hope you are well. I’m good, working on the production of Folk Remedy Book 2. Which is hard and a lot of work??? You think I’d have learned from last time, but apparently no. Finally building up my drawing stamina again.
How have you been? Please share your art and/or cats.

I received a book of an English Manga created by Jem Yoshioka ( @jemyoshioka.bsky.social ). Its subject matter is YOKAI (Japanese folklore monster). It is familiar for me as a Japanese. Not only this, it is interesting story.

🍂AUTUMN EQUINOX🙏
Today is Shūbun-no-hi (秋分の日 'Autumn Equinox Day’)📿
Typically falling on September 22nd or 23rd, this time of year coincides with the Buddhist observances 'Shūki Higan-e' (秋季彼岸会 'Autumn Equinoctial Services'). It has been a national holiday since 1948.

FYI relay dinner is real and I’m pretty sure I did invent it. (If you did I’m sorry for claiming it, but also let’s be friends because we obviously both have excellent ideas.)

Regular meal advice: Do meal prep so you have easy meals to hand when you’re low on energy!
ADHD meal advice: So I invented this thing I call “relay dinner” where instead of cooking a whole meal at once I prepare and eat the components of a balanced meal one after another. Dunno why but it works.
