she/her. Knitting, nail polish, sometimes Star Trek. Often sweary. Forever salty about public transit.
Havent been to a dentist since I aged out of my parents’ coverage in 2004, received “100% coverage” from CDCP in July but haven’t gone because I still can’t afford the out of pocket costs. www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

Picked up a globe bar cart for free off the side of the road today. Spent over an hour and a half dusting, washing, and polishing it and still need to do A LOT more but it’s super cool & potentially worth $1500-$3500+ (or nothing at all that’s cool too)

when I see the header "acknowledgement" this is what I would expect to see, not what the other company posted. and this isn't even hidden in subsections of menus, it's part of the footer on every single page of the website. I know where I'm getting my next journal from (budget permitting).

found Canadian-made nail polish with a very off-putting, but unsurprising, Association Disclaimer and Acknowledgement.

I take it back. Even with the mints and the garlicky butter, this is still fucking god-tier Christmas treats

I don’t have an issue with the size, just with it being described as “small”

For comparison, this watch has a 35mm (3.5cm) diameter face and it takes up my whole damn wrist. Looks good, fits comfortably, nowhere near what I would consider “small”

Made an Agathis toque for Toros, the best anesthesiologist in the world, with a cashmere/merino/silk blend reclaimed from an old sweater. Still haven’t figured out how to get it to him during the postal strike. #ShowMeYourKnits

Seniors born in 1983? The glorification of youth has gotten out of hand

Buckwheat Apple cake, aka The Penitence Cake

so called bc so many people in the recipe comments were making it for Lent due to the lack of sugar & fat, and oh man does it ever taste Lenten. Thank god for ermine frosting to make it edible

This is the ingredient list for the regular sized version of the same chicken from the website. Wheat flour, corn starch, corn flour, milk ingredients. The Metro customer service portal doesn’t have a complaints or general inquiries option or social media options

This is the label from the rotisserie chicken my mom bought for dinner tonight. No ingredients listed. No allergy warnings. Understandably, she assumed it was safe for me.

it should be illegal to put these menus on your blog with no option to close/minimize them

It was actually handspun 😞 but I got some crochet cotton & mystery lace weight that is at least partially wool for $2. Didn’t even touch my lottery winnings so some of that is being set aside for a future yarn crawl
