My MIL commissioned me to make some cup cozies for my SIL's Christmas present.

She was so pleased with my first one she wants to buy 4. ☺️

Correct, YouTube.
A screenshot from a YouTube 2025 Recap. It reads "Your YouTube Award" as a title, with the text "Most likely to find the coolest vintage find before anyone else."

Made my nieces play purses.

Looks like they're a hit. 😂

Appropos of nothing, I was really feeling my outfit today.
A white woman wears a red kerchief with crimped light brown hair. She has purple glasses and a copper torc around her neck. She has a small smile and her hands clasped in front of her. Her outfit consists of a black mid-sleeve shirt with buttons up the center of the chest. A black floral and paisley skirt and a wide maroon belt with a silver buckle joining the two.

5th grader just handed me this sticker and said "Look! It's the spitting cat image of you!"
Sticker in a white paper. It shows a light brown cat standing up, wearing a red bandana. It wears an army green messenger bag with a teddy bear sticking out of it.

The more I crochet, the bigger my DIY grips get.

I give it five years before I'm at full tennis balls.

Found an old NaNoWriMo bookmark and man does it hit different knowing what we know now.
A blue bookmark sits on a wooden surface. At the top is the NaNoWriMo crest. Beneath are the words "calling all young writers" with information on how to join the Young Writers Program underneath.

A day of lounging around the house to recover from an illness requires ✨THE ECCENTRIC WIZARD HOUSE COAT✨

Best thing I ever crocheted.

Behold: Butterscotch Bread

Honestly went way quicker than expected, but we still have to check the taste with almond milk instead of regular.

A girl about to throw a red dodgeball at three others. On her is the text "Apollo." On the ball the text "the gift of prophecy." And the text in the other group of girls "random internet users just trying to be comedic."

Fun fact: when a storm blew the doors off our LFL and we had to take the books out (cuz more rain was coming) our neighbors turned it into a de facto pantry.

You'd be surprised how many people can get on board with something like this!
A yellow cabinet with a brown roof and two shelves on the inside. There are bottles of Body Armor drink and Lays chips on the bottom and a can of pasta on top.

Forgot my sensory headphones when I was packing for the Jonas Brothers concert and was about to cry from the sheer noise of walking in the stadium.

Thank the gods for event centers with sensory bags to check out. ✌🏻

Had a maxi dress I loved, but got a giant stain on the top half.

So I cut it in half, sewed a new channel for elastic, and BAM: new skirt.

It was slow going cuz I'm a handsewer and the fabric was stretch, but yay upcycling!

A white woman stands in front of her long bathroom mirror. Only her bottom half is in-frame, showing a floor-length teal skirt with various shades of pink flowers across it. There's a new line of stitches near the top that are totally aren't wonky and shouldn't be looked at too closely.

After I made the usual "use up the produce" smoothie, I decided to try my hand at a simmer pot.
