Played with clay for 5 hours. I may be slow but I'm getting better at this I think?! That tall jar was 3 lbs and the tallest thing I've ever made.

I live south of Eaton Canyon. It's been quite a week. Taking a day or two off to rest and take care of things for myself (chores, grad school homework). LA is taking care of itself. There will be more work to do. Photo of Eaton Canyon/Altadena is from 2014.

Finished today: THE ONLY ONE LEFT by Riley Sager. Satisfying. This has been the best streak I've had of creepy house thrillers. 🏚️

Deep into HIS & HERS by Alice Feeney on audio. I think she's going on the favorites list (this is my second book of hers) and the pairing of Richard Armitage and Stephanie Racine is my new favorite reading duo.

Enjoying this book but the reader's American accent for Posy Starling is not it

WORSTED was yarn dyer Aimée Gille's first curated book of patterns. If you recall the Little Yellow Sweater I recently finished, this is one of her signature colors in her Mondim yarn. Her company, La Bien Aimée, is based in France. I have not yet acquired her newer book, NEONS AND NEUTRALS. 🩷💛

🐈 Goose is on my mind. I loved THE MARVELS and will definitely watch it again. Thrilled not to have been spoiled.
