The older and wiser you get the more you realize Star Trek is much better than Star Wars.

First time making rough puff pastry, and I’m pretty tickled with my layers! I used the recipe from Sally’s Baking Addiction Baking 101 cookbook.

We are all capable of making someone’s day better.
A small kindness can ripple outward in ways we’ll never see.
We don’t need to measure its impact to know it matters.

Every trans person who comes out brings a bit more truth into the world.
It’s not just about gender or identity.
It’s about more people living lives that make sense to them.
That makes things better for everyone.

I’m trying to learn watercolor. I did some a few years back, but I haven’t had my paints out since. It’s kind of nice getting back into it.

I’m mid-Ranunculus, but I left my yarn at home, so I had to make an emergency trip to the yarn store yesterday, and now I’m doing this Stormy Sky Shawl while traveling. Yarn info in alt text.

This was the only project I could find in my photos for this week’s #showmeyourknits garter stitch theme.
The #showmeyourknits theme is blankets this week! I loved this Chevron Garter Baby Blanket that I made for my cousin last year. I think the yarn was a Cascade Yarns, but I couldn’t swear to that. This blanket was an absolute joy to knit and turned out super soft and squishy.

This is one of the only things I have knitted with any significant yellow and the only thing I have knitted on this loom. It was a blanket for my niece, and I apparently didn’t take any pictures of the finished blanket.

It’s cowl week on #showmeyourknits. I wish I had a better picture, but for Christmas 2020, I knitted five of these Autopilots. They were so fun to knit. Now that I’m thinking about it, I might have to knit some more of them.

I had cast on a sock when I saw someone’s Stormy Sky Shawl here on Bluesky and decided to pivot. The yarn is Oil Slick from @oldrustedchair.bsky.social. I’m about to go back and fix that stitch I dropped right now.

If you are looking for a sci-fi YA GN about how being trans is beautiful and queer love is transformative AND/OR an action-packed romp GN about claiming your identity in as a young adult while dealing with depression and an evil trickster god, I have written those books!

I’m a couple of days late for cardigan week, but I have to share! I’m notoriously bad at finishing projects that people have asked for, so he didn’t believe I was really going to do this, but here it is! This was my first time seaming pieces, and I’m really proud of it.

Hopefully, this stack of pieces will become a cardigan in the next few days. I’ve never seamed pieces together before, so I’m a little nervous about it, but it’ll never get done if I don’t try!
