speaking of hockey, me and Ed and our friend Ken went to the final PWHL game of Boston/Minnesota. great game, absolute blowout! @pwhlfrost.bsky.social

a mostly complete set of anthologies my stories have appeared in over the years, along with two books I authored. on top of the books are a few magazines where some book reviews I wrote have appeared. poof! a clean shelf.

another collaborative dinner with @robotswithoutpants.bsky.social - he made the marinara from scratch this morning and put the salad together. I used the ricotta I made yesterday and busted out my pasta maker attachment and made fresh ravioli!

dinner is rarely a collaborative effort between me and @robotswithoutpants.bsky.social (he does about 99.8% of the cooking). but today I made a batch of ricotta cheese, which he used on this pizza, which we both agreed is one of the best pizzas he's ever made 🍕

some cross stitch patterns I've done recently. I found the designs at DMC, Just Cross Stitch magazine, and Cubicle Cross Stitches.

at some point I think I would like to get back to writing, but right now this keeps me sane.

I had to chop my hair a couple of months ago because of an allergic reaction to my hair dye...my bangs are making me regret not getting a buzzcut and starting from scratch.

a cross stitch project I finished recently. if you're a creative with a day job (or you just like snarky cross stitch projects) consider checking out the Etsy shop for Cubicle Cross Stitches.
me with the cross stitch project I finished and hung up outside my cubicle at work. the lettering says "this calls for a spreadsheet" with a nerdy emoji. true to form, I'm wearing my glasses like the emoji is

two black cats are sitting next to each other on a Minnesota wild fleece blanket. they probably want treats.
