The lighting and angle of the aisle were horrible, and I'm a goof, but I'm still tickled my sweetie got a picture of me in front of this particular set before we saw White Christmas yesterday. I'm trying to be a bit festive this year to beat holiday depression, despite everything. 🤞

Thanksgiving leftovers were better than yesterday's feast. My mom brought her Veganized stuffing. 🥰 The cranberries are my favorite part though.

The main was this recipe (except I used mashed beans instead of lentils and added onions to the sauce). www.rabbitandwolves.com/vegan-lentil...

My Thanksgiving pies are cooling.🥵 I've used both of these recipes before (for the fillings only), and they were both very good. Definitely recommended. For crusts, I always Veganize a Julia Child pastry recipe.

Mom sent home leftover sauce that she made with Beyond Burger for our last visit, so I used it to make pizza spaghetti squash. There are seasoned sautéed mushrooms and kidney beans mixed inside and Daiya mozzarella, onions, and olives on top.

I looked through my screenshots, and this is the closest I have to a smiling Rook.

I recently found an old, mostly blank sketchbook. At the time I used it, I was trying to come up with designs for TeeFury, with the intention of eventually making digital art and submitting. This one was my favorite. "Jem7"—a Mass Effect and Jem mashup. It's messy, but here it is for #N7Day. 🤪

Well, this surprised me. It's the evening of November 1st in zone 9b, and my potted passionfruit plant has its first ever flower???!!! I thought the plant had been looking a little sad from the weather changing, then this showed up. I hand pollinated it. 🤞

Happy Halloween!
I was really stressed this year, so I just used a simple stencil from the interwebs for my pumpkin (source in alt text).
But I did find the energy to make an apple bread bundt. It's zucchini bread, doubled, with apples instead of zucchini, and it's Veganized.

Dw i'n hoffi pannas ond... The Duolingo Cymraeg course is oddly parsnip obsessed. I take a screenshot whenever a silly parsnip sentence pops up. Arguing with parsnips is peak silly.

It's nice that Steve's friend let us join his Duolingo family for free, but the app is really meh.

Quality time with kitty.

I tried to take photos of the harvest supermoon. I clearly don't know what I'm doing. 😜

It's incredibly bright. Go out and take a look if you can.

Four RPGs to get to know me. ✨

What about you?

I was thiiiiis close to putting Fable II or Mass Effect II in there, but I couldn't leave out KotORII—my first real RPG obsession. I still carry a torch for that beautiful, broken game and always will, and I think that says a lot about me. 🔥

It finally rained properly! My zone 9 autumn veggie sprouts enjoyed it. The fennel is slow to germinate. I think I may have planted it too deep. But the kale and beets look good. Direct sewing hasn't worked out for me, so they're in trays.

Also, here's some pretty Mexican sage.

Today was our first pomegranate harvest ever! While watering, I found one on the ground that a neighborhood critter nibbled, and one was splitting. It was time. We have twenty pomegranates. We prepared two to enjoy today. They taste so much better fresh off the tree. 😋

If you see this, post a concert pic you took.

Jakob Dylan performing at a The Wallflowers concert in 2025. The bright stage lights sort of ruined it. Oh well... I went there for music not picture taking. 😜

Tonight I made one of my favorites: red Thai kabocha squash curry. We eat it with quinoa because rice and T1D don't mix well. I follow this recipe but add tofu AND always check my curry paste ingredients list carefully.

I need to find a new sunscreen. Despite wearing Aveeno SPF 60 lotion for my gardening and running every time, I got loads of new freckles this year, especially on my shoulders. Sprays I've tried were garbage. And lots of sunscreens sting my under eye.
I'm trying this now:

I saw four mantises in the garden today. Perhaps they're moving in because we don't have a pest service, while many of our neighbors do. There are plenty of tasty bugs for them, yet my veggies haven't been infested. That's the food web for you. 🌱🪲

Today, I made layered eggplant Parmesan. The breaded eggplant was baked (not fried), the sauce was homemade, and the "cheese" was Mozzarella Style Daiya. The last time I made this was before the pandemic.🥲 It was a nice treat.

Years ago, I found this recipe: savorysweetlife.com/chorizo-arug... and Veganized it, by swapping in soy chorizo and plant milk. I add dried basil, minced garlic, a can of white beans, and I put my faux parm on top. So...I don't really make the recipe, but it was good inspiration.

Pomegranates are coming.

We planted this tree in '22. This was the first year that the little tree flowered, and it looks like we'll have more pomegranates than we typically buy in a year. I think there are about 20. 😋

I figured it was time to harvest my snapdragon seeds for next year. The dried up flower stalks started looking like stalks of little upside-down hag heads or alien skulls...or something else ominous.
