I love when the ornamental grass in my yard plumes in the fall and the setting sun hits it just right.

Haven’t taken my Halloween lights down yet, so enjoy a purple and orange sunset.

Today’s good thing:

Found a bumblebee taking a nap on my dahlias this morning.

Went on a lovely walk today and saw loads of wooly bears!

Working with faux leather (vinyl) fabric for the first time to make my older son’s Halloween costume, and it SUCKS! Had to redo the belt because it was wider than he wanted originally, and it curled up on me after I cut it down and tried topstitch it again. Still, I think it’s going okay so far.

The light was hitting this one dahlia in my garden perfectly this afternoon!

Listen, I love football and am a diehard Arsenal fan, but I’m not immune to this insane face. Watch my favorite team AND this absolute worldie?! Yes, please.

Calafiori does not play when it comes to Martinelli. 😂

One thing I love about Calafiori is how he’s always seeming to soak up the atmosphere and enjoy himself. Singing North London Forever before a match, joining in chants for his teammates. I like seeing players appreciating this sort of thing and having fun with the game.

I saw my boy Gudea at the Cleveland Museum of Art today! My favorite piece in the whole place. I’ve been captivated by the existence of these statues since college, and I’m always so happy to see one. Kind of like the joy of Ea-Nasir memes but Gudea actually was cool.

I’m spending the evening adding more yarn to the mane of the unicorn I’m knitting for a friend’s daughter.

Forgot a bowl to harvest my cherry tomatoes, so I turned my shirt around and used my hood. Got three more heirlooms, too!

So proud of my curly spider plant who started as a baby and is finally growing really well!

I spent this week knitting a Hello Kitty for my niece! The dress part is the same royal purple as the bow.

My older son texted me this meme because he knew I’d like it, and I’ve never been so proud.
