Ok but does your grocery store chain mail you a special alpaca wool gift every December because you spend a wild amount of money there? This year it's a LAPTOP BAG. Previous years: tote bag, backpack, scarf. (Fingers crossed for leg warmers next year.) Thanks, Natural Grocers!

100% agree! Also the Yoshida Chizuko works are jaw dropping. Can’t wait to go back and hit all the rooms I didn’t have time for tonight.

Ya know what, Eleanor? My husband Sean and I would both love to vote for Zohran, but we haven't lived in NYC since May 2008. This annual tradition of getting NYC voting reminder texts, despite being registered in WA & then OR for the last 17+ years, is kinda cute but also, bro. WTF.

It's labor of love season, aka time to make Kachka's borsch recipe, featuring short ribs from our beef plug www.mountain-beef.com. Does it take all day? Yes. Is it incredibly delicious? Also yes.

It took some effort (my browsers' ad blockers were preventing the page from loading), but I canceled my MFing Hulu/Disney+ sub. Eat it, corporate overlords.

Hey PPS (and other school districts)…time to move the first day of school to mid-September to avoid early dismissals due to increasingly hot Augusts? (Assume there’s no money for heat pumps.) God we are cooked.

Spotted these cuties in Woodstock (PDX) tonight. Why am I constantly fantasizing about vintage cars that undoubtedly suffer from maintenance issues?

Not me crying while playing a quick round of GeoGuessr, as I realize I've been dropped on the stunning west coast of the south island of Aotearoa/NZ. Those tree ferns are a dead giveaway (plus a Salvation Army sign with the city name, heh).

PORTLAND: Hermiston cantaloupe alert! Just bought 2 of these divine babies at Market of Choice on SE Belmont. $1.49/pound, worth it.

Chicken update: My naked neck started laying the tiniest lil eggs at 16 weeks! She’s also gotten into lap cuddles when the older hens aren’t bullying her.

Hey Portland, the summer drought seems to be upon us, so here's your gentle reminder to place pans of fresh water out for backyard wildlife. It's very cool to watch the crows use these pans to soak hard bits of food, and squirrels love 'em, too.

Do NOT sleep on "AARP The Magazine," folks! Where else can you learn about your Measles immunity *and* pour over a matrix of 80s-90s movie attributes, on the same page? (I'm Team Heathers, because it's so very.)

Having gone through the AT&T Wireless to Cingular (and back to AT&T) rebranding years ago...this shit is insanely expensive and infuriating to implement. Have fun, HBO...maybe bring back the 80s pre-movie clip of flying through a model town, while you're at it?

By now y’all have seen all the Portland Hands Off protest pics, so I won’t share mine. But this visual was gorgeous and I’m grateful to all the beautiful people I saw in the streets today.
