My new friend is allergic to everything, so I'm trying out my favourite cookie recipe with gluten-free, dairy-free, egg-free, soy-free alternatives.

In the spirit of "post your shitty art" here is a watercolour painting I did based on a photo I took.

I still don't have answers about life, but I finally finished processing the wool I harvested from a sweater probably over a year ago

This obsession with over analyzing other languages has always been funny to me.

Breakfast is literally made of break and fast. It means eating something after a period of not eating.

A cupboard is a board on which you place cups.

These are just other words we stuck together and said funny!

I wove myself a whole scarf! The process was really enjoyable and I'm excited to try again in the future. Might knit a pair of gloves to match one day.

A final shot of the garden before I had to head on the road. Lots of work yet to do, but my brother's going to finish ripping up the grass and then lay out a weed barrier until I come back in October to do some more work

Garden update: the side I've been working on vs the side that I won't be able to even start this time

With the help of the lawnmower, my mum and I managed to pull back a huge chunk of grass riddled landscaping fabric. Hopefully her roses will feel a little better now.

Helping my parents out by decimating the English ivy that's been wreaking havoc in the front garden.

Some flowers from my UK trip for everyone to appreciate, as a break from all the nonsense going on in the world

Dreaming of lazy spring mornings spent drinking tea and hunting for glorious blossoms

We are worth more together than the bosses want us to know! We need unions and collective action now more than ever! Happy May Day!

My improv troupe is doing an immersive dating experience show for Feb and yesterday I decided to do a throwback and play as Kimberly from Power Rangers. So naturally, I had to watch some MMPR this Saturday morning

Today's tea is matcha with oat milk

Today's tea is Goddess of Mercy (tieguanyin). A traditional Chinese oolong made of quite large rolled leaves which can be steeped so many times!

Today's tea is a first flush tea from the Kanchanjangha Tea Estate and Research Centre in Nepal. I also got myself some new floral friends to help brighten things up.

Yes it is!

This is my reference photo for the drawing. Taken on Portra 400 in the spring. Probably with my 50mm macro lens (I don't take notes or anything, but it's my favourite lens for flowers)

I don't do a lot of art, but I'm trying to expand my offline life. Here is a drawing of spring blossoms from August and some water colour doodles from the other night. I'm still learning to enjoy the process without getting discouraged by my lack of skill
