Latest read: “Everybody Wants to Rule the World Except Me” by Django Wexler, the sequel to “How to Become the Dark Lord and Die Trying”

I love this series, it’s both hilarious and heartfelt ⭐️

My only complaint is I felt it ended a bit abruptly but that could be just because I wanted more!

The Wedding Shower was a success (thanks to our amazing bestie) and while it wiped me out for the entirety of yesterday, gotta say I really fuckin love the people in my life & I think we look cute af in these.
A picture of a Polaroid showing a couple (the nearlyweds) standing at the top of steps on a porch under a brick awning. Two Polaroids of the same couple, both indoors beside one another and posing. One photo is from more of a distance to show off the “bride’s” vintage style dress. The other photo is more of a closeup of their faces. The groom has a fantastic beard and is wearing a floral button down shirt.

She moved ❤️
A mostly grey cat, technically a diluted tortoiseshell cat, with a cleft lip and pretty green eyes sits on a brown couch next to a yellow blanket and (not pictured) she is leaning against her human mother

A mostly grey cat snoozes on a yellow window sill between two white curtains. The sky is blue behind her.

Had my makeup trial today and when I complimented the glass propagation jar on her window sill, she gifted me a jar of my very own :’) now I feel like we’re besties, idk
A round glass jar labeled “Martinelli’s gold metal 100% Apple juice” is being held up to the camera and behind it is a white and brown spotted dog, he’s a little cutie pie.

The Struts, the STL SC home opener, AND the Soulard puppy parade this weekend?? Just wish Ace’s lion costume fit a little better
Two proud dog parents (Dinkwads) holding their small brown and white dog between them. The dog is wearing a very cute lion costume but it’s mostly hidden in the photo, unfortunately. Behind them, canopy tents and sponsors are set up for a parade.

Looks promising tho, no leftovers!
All of the bake-off croissants have been eaten, leaving an empty tea towel lined basket. A coffee cup full of ones is in front next to a place card that says “Croissants -Em :)”

Reminiscing of hiking/camping in the Ozarks after the weather yesterday reminded me spring exists.

This picture was taken on the worst hike of my life, we were COVERED head-to-toe in seed ticks on the hottest day of the year on a spider-y trail up a “mountain” with our backpacks.
Beautiful tho lol
Tall grasses, shrubs, and rocks jut out from a cliff edge. On top of a rock close to the edge is a man in a red shirt, his arms out wide but he looks tiny on the horizon. Behind him is a Missouri landscape with a few distant hills, trees, and green farmland. Above him, the sky is light blue and with a light dusting of clouds.

Btw, the frozen-then-proofed-overnight ones turned out great (maybe a little extra done, I’ll have to watch them more closely next time)
7 visible croissants lie in a basket lined with a tea towel, more under the pile that are not visible. They look a little extra crispy and homemade but overall pretty decent.

Mini-batch of giant croissants finished!

Tomorrow will be a bigger batch that I froze & will proof overnight tonight 😋 experimental!

These two are a “Happy 5th Anniversary Special” for @capotommy.bsky.social 💕
Two large golden croissants sit on a brown plate. Two small jam jars can be seen in the corner but their labels are cut off from the photo.

Oh, to be a spoiled house cat
A grey cat snoozing on a brown couch in a sun spot. Her head is upright against the back of the couch but she is asleep and comfy. Her mouth is open a little. A blue blanket can be seen in the bottom right corner.

Into the thick of it!
It’s a screenshot from the Apple weather app taken shortly after midnight showing a graph of predicted precipitation of snow for Sunday, January 5th, 2025. The graph shows rather steady snowfall that peaks around 6am and again at noon. Under “Daily Summary” the weather app writes: “There has been .4 inches of snowfall in the last 6 hours. Today’s total snowfall will be 15 inches. In the next 24 hours, expect 16 inches of snowfall with a total of 1.2 inches of liquid equivalent precipitation”

She may be kinda old & kinda scrawny but she’s really managing to hold me together rn. Idk I think she’s pretty in here.
A Christmas tree stands decorated in a bright living room; there are some gaps between branches that make the tree look relatively scrawny especially with a bright window behind it. There are other various decorations in view such as a cardboard moose head, a bookshelf, and a bouquet of poinsettias.
