Attempting to make an old recipe from a 1967 recipe book published by the Berks-Lehigh Farmer for Fastnacht Day tomorrow. Side note, very interesting/disturbing to see most of the women go by Mrs. Husband's full name

It makes me so sad that so many never take the time to imagine what else could be. We are on a rock, floating through space. So much of what surrounds us is made up and can be re-made. Don't let how things are stop you from imagining and working towards new/better ways of being.
Imagine a network of worker-owned cooperatives that ensures all their workers are safe from the perils of unemployment. If a worker has to be laid off for whatever reason, the co-ops cooperate to find a position within another co-op. If no position is available, they provide unemployment benefits.

Librarians are going to be your conduits to community education and liberty with all these cuts to education. Fight like Hell to keep your libraries going. Show them support. Get library cards, and if your states and towns aren't protecting them, MAKE NOISE.

Do a little something every day is my gardening motto. It's still very cold here and we are expecting snow and ice over the next few weeks so I'm not doing much outside but keeping busy with seed sowing, today is onions

Came across this post a few weeks ago and cannot stop thinking about it every time I pack up for orchestra rehearsal
Some instruments are just, like, instruments. Piano is for people who want to play a piece of furniture. Bass is for masochists who want to play the furniture and then load it in their car when they’re done.

(And organ is for people who want to play architecture.)

Very excited about the seeds I picked up at the seed swap last week, especially looking forward to seeing how the black sesame and skunk beans turn out this year 🌱 #gardening #seeds

As a medical librarian, I sometimes come across phrases in the medical literature that I think would make excellent metal band names:

Programmed Death
Brooding Rumination
Pig Brain Death Model
Death Receptor
Matricidal Aneurysm
Sinus Obliteration
Asphyxiated Lamb

This week at my bass lesson we spent the whole hour just on exercise #1 🙃 I hope my teacher doesn't regret taking me on as a student, it's been slow going #bass #doublebass #simandl #uprightbass

Hoping to post here more, took an IG break almost 2 years ago and can't see myself going back, but miss having somewhere to post photos, musings

Finally got my 2023 Cozy Knitter advent socks off the needles just in time to start my 2024 pair! Better late than never (still have to do the afterthought heels though) 😅 #knitting #sockknitting 🧶🧦
