Cleaning out the garden for the winter and found another pumpkin. So the volunteer pumpkin plant produced three.

I lost this round of yarn chicken.

And the table scape that was supposed to be my mother’s task but which was passed to me.

NGL. That chicken thing is 100% why I don't eat meat.

The only stage I ever choose at the #ArcadiaFolkFestival because why would you want to sit in a field when you can sit in the woods.

The mystery (volunteer) squash plant has produced a second pumpkin!!

So the mystery squash plant that took over the garden and has bees in it’s flowers every morning, looks like it is going to give me exactly one pumpkin.

It is that time of year when I try to figure out stitches from a picture. The body cables are no problem, but do the sleeves look crocheted to anyone else? 🧶

I have to say 1. That following Dorothy Sayers, Agatha Christie, and other classic detective novelists as they attempt to solve a real-life mystery was wonderful and 2. Bessie Carter was an amazing narrator for the audiobook. I will definitely be seeking out her reads in the future.

When you pretend to be the kind of person who goes to concerts, but the only concerts you go to are at wild life sanctuaries — or you are participating.

Going to turn my forthcoming niece into tiny baby Pen. I swear Portia was on to something with this yellow thing.

Pattern: Villads Romper by KnitsDuNord
Yarn: West Yorkshire Spinners 4ply held double.
Buttons: bought for a baby sweater for a cousin who is now in high school.

Clearly I have some catching up to do.

So I started a new project and now I’m a little disturbed by how closely I match the yarn.

Very cheerful buddy on the fence this morning.

And since I was in Salem, I couldn’t resist some witchy tea blends.
July 19, 2025 at 7:27 PM
And the family had things too.

And that we got to see the kitchen and laundry. What I wouldn’t give for those floor to ceiling shelves.

The highlight of today’s tour was that I share a birthday with the nursemaid we followed (the picture is her)

But also the construction method means that it looks wild right now.

Last year I only got one, so improvement.

I very much need to make this blouse.
