Okay there is no brown on these, they’re all just lovely buttery yellow. Costco has boxes of organic Canadian ginger for $9.99, and I dried it. Mostly to add to tea. It was really lovely.

Okay, I think I’m officially a crocheter. In other news, avoid the first day of the Mary Maxim tent sale. Especially if you are sick with a miserable cold (yes I was masked, the full force of it only hit after two hours in the line to pay).

Thanks to partner I’m managing to get some things done this summer despite the knee injury. Today: walnut pesto.

We went out to the Erin Feast of Fibre this morning, mostly so I could do some door prize shopping for the upcoming @kwknittersguild.bsky.social guild year. Can’t show you the lovely thing I bought but I can share my own purchases.

The plan is to do a cupboard clean out and reorganization. The knee injury means I’m not able to do that. But we got some nifty containers (Canadian made) and we’re slowly getting things into them.

Look, it’s a teeny bit off kilter and funky but it looks like what it’s supposed to be. This pushed my crochet skills, which is always a good thing. #crochet

Okay, it looks a bit funky because I’ve done some fudging where I struggled with counting in crochet, but it has eyes and it’s looking like a thing. For a first effort, I can live with it. #crochet.

Guelph and area peeps: I won this amazing print from House of Anansi press and I want to get it framed properly. Do any of you have recommendations of a framer who could do a good job for me?
