The cover image of the book This Is How You Lose the Time War, by Amal El-Mohtar and Max Gladstone. The cover is a light blue with distorted, glitchy-looking birds. One is a cardinal, and beneath it is a blue bird.

Thank you! 😊 Enjoy the additional sunlight where you are.

Here are my latest weaving projects. The first is some card weaving on an inkle loom which I just completed and am making into bookmarks. The second is an overshot scarf finished on a Harrisville loom.
A wooden inkle loom with a completed project on it - a series of bookmarks made from a single band in a leafy pattern with black borders, green and white thread. A completed scarf still on a wooden floor loom. It was made with overshot in a rose pattern with black and red tencel dyed locally.

Please go give her a follow. She streams competitive and cozy games and is just the nicest person! ☺️

I think of this poem often.
A poem called Mercy, after Nikki Giovanni: She asks me to kill the spider. Instead, I get the most peaceful weapons I can find. I take a cup and a napkin. I catch the spider, put it outside and allow it to walk away. If I am ever caught in the wrong place at the wrong time, just being alive and not bothering anyone, I hope I am greeted with the same kind of mercy. -Rudy Francisco

Took this tiny friend outside so it wouldn't get stepped on in the gym where I found it ♥️

Yesss it's fun! I've only done one and still need to figure out what to do with it. Need to frame it and/or seal it up

I spent the day in a yurt on a woman's farm with some friends, learning to weave baskets from ponderosa pine needles!

View from the top down of a pine needle basket in the process of being made. It has a flat green wooden bottom and is bound together with a natural colored hemp cord. View from the side of a pine needle basket in the process of being made. It has a flat green wooden bottom and is bound together with a natural colored hemp cord. A bunch of ponderosa pine needles lying in a thin metal tray. They have been baked in glycerine and water which makes them more pliable. The very beginning of the pine needle basket weaving process. A short tube of plastic straw is the main tool. Once it's stuffed full of pine needles, you begin binding it to the bottom piece of wood, encircling the bundle with the hemp cord and drawing it through the holes in the wood. I am probably describing this poorly.

I randomly took a weaving class in March, connected with my teacher, and am now part of an amazing group of women learning to weave on looms at her house!

Here I am at her Harrisville 8 shaft loom, working on a scarf using an overshot pattern.

New friends + learning new skills = happiness

Are top sliced hot dog buns a regional thing?

Discovered them in North Carolina

Can't find them in Oregon

I called Reece downstairs because I knew he'd want to watch too 😂 He's on the couch next to me now, fascinated by the crabs.

Cat
Photo of Molly, a female cat curled up tightly in a ball on a green blanket on the back of the couch. There's a tropical green forest tapestry on the wall behind her. She has am mostly tabby coat that's been shaved into a lion cut with her tail left fluffy, and a mane around her neck. Her face is buried in her tail.

I finished reading this scifi novella last night! It hit the ground running and kept my interest high the whole way through. The witty banter and humor made it a fun read, but there were also moments of awe and wonder, tragedy and despair, and the hardscrabble of survival.

#booksky #scifi #books
The front cover image of the scifi novella Full Speed to a Crash Landing by New York Times bestselling author Beth Revis. It shows a ship crashed on a red planet, broken in two, and the silhouettes of a man and woman facing away from each other, their silhouettes full of the blackness of space and dotted by stars, with smoke from the crash site curling up between them.

Donations of $20 or more on my Twitch fundraiser earn a woven bookmark I made myself! (While supplies last; requires sharing a mailing address with me.)
