When my husband and I moved into our house, we never knew what we'd do with the chicken coop/run space. Today, we finished re-purposing it into a garden space we love 💕🌱🌿

WTF? FBI agents arrested a Milwaukee county judge on Friday, accusing her of shielding an immigrant from federal authorities. The allegation? That Judge Hannah Dugan “intentionally misdirected federal agents away from” someone they were pursuing, according to a now-deleted post by Mr. Patel.

Current WIP is the Bibliophile 2 sweater by Alicia Plummer using Bad Sheep Yarn's DK weight in Wild Iris.

It's my first time knitting a sweater, and I'm loving it

Finished my Pembroke Scarf on Sunday - works great as both a scarf for me and a hood for Guinevere 🤣

Came home from surgery today to a gift basket filled with craft supplies, a book, and snacks. I have the best friends 💕

Today's sourdough discard bake was bacon, cheddar & scallion scones. They are so tasty that my husband had 5 already. I can tell this will be a frequently baked item

I have personally deemed 2025 as the year of hobbies. Learning new things to avoid existential dread

Oh to be a corgi, warming buns in the sun

I'm so proud of my first sourdough loaf! It's an Italian herbs and cheese loaf, and is absolutely delicious 😋

The year of hobbies continues in a successful manner
