No cheating. Your past saved celebrity pic is your therapist.

Amazing

Finished!

This is my favorite French toast recipe. So delicious and fluffy.

Making French toast in our house tonight for the 4 goblins (aged 16-23)

I never know how much, if any, will be leftover.
4 loaves of French bread sliced on a cutting board, on the counter next to the stove. Piled into 10 piles of about 8-10 slices each

Just finished Wrapped by Rebekah Weatherspoon and it was such a delight! A quick novella read with a cinnamon roll MMC and an amazing, blunt, funny, FMC. Fun and sexy and I definitely need more.

Glad I picked this up as a bundle with A Man for Mrs Claus and I have more to look forward to!

We’re True Lawful Plantser for sure. We have outlines, know our characters inside out, and know the end, but we go off on tangents and often our story characters take us interesting places
Writing Style Alignment Chart (9-square) First row: Lawful Pantser - Writes everything in order - Uses the flashlight method to get to the end - Ends up in strange places - knows random details no one else cares about Neutral Pantser - Writes things as they come to them. - not afraid to bounce around. - knowing the end makes it boring Chaotic Pantser - Writes completely out of order. - what the fuck is a plot? - loves side fiction, and writes whatever they're excited about. Second row: Lawful Plantser - Knows the ending, writes toward it - loves to worldbuild - uses character bios/has definitely taken personality tests for their characters True Plantser - Starts an outline - goes off script and ends up in unexpected places. - but that's okay cause this is more interesting anyway Chaotic Plantser - Has an idea of the plot when they start. - who writes things down?? - has to assemble scenes into a frankendraft Third row: Lawful Plotter - Has detailed character bios - Multi-page outline organized by scene/chapter - probably knows what colour socks their MC wears on tuesdays Neutral Plotter - Brief outline. - Likes to use beat sheets - Modifies and updates outline as they go. - Thinks about writing character bios, rarely does Chaotic Plotter - Writes scenes on little cards and tries to organize them on a board. - Writes said scenes out of order. - Copy and paste is your friend made by @cheyannealepka

I was having the same thought this morning. But I also saw that medical debt no longer counts on credit reporting and I think that’s awesome. And there’s this guy keeping me company.

“You will be visited by the three spirits.”

The three spirits:
Bailey Bass as Claudia (played in season 2 by Delainey Hayles), Jacob Anderson as Louis de Pointe du Lac, and Sam Reid as Lestat de Lioncourt from ‘Interview with the Vampire’. Claudia sits on a chaise in front of Louis and Lestat who perch behind her, all looking serious in their early, richly appointed, 20th century home.

The Expanse is amazing. Season 1 was harder for me to get into, but after that I was hooked - and she is one of four of my absolute favorites on that show.
Shohreh Aghdashloo as Chrisjen Avasarala on The Expanse. Walking through a snowy landscape with a ready to kick ass expression and body language. She wears an amazing red and orange dress and cape. The cape is trimmed with faux red fur draped around her head as the hood is up. Wes Chatham as Amos Burton on The Expanse. Seated in a room with some exo-suits, in a sleeveless black shirt. Tattoos on his arms. He looks up with a questioning eyebrow as he messes with some electronics in his hands. He has a full beard and short dark hair. Cara Gee as Camila Drummer on The Expanse. Seated with arms crossed staring you down. Dramatic black eyeliner accentuates her stare and you know she means business.

One of my favorite things is when our tiny rescued cat jumps into the middle of the bed and just purrs - so loudly you can hear her across the room - so incredibly happy to be by us 🥰

I’m pretty blasé about most computer things (except my gaming PC), but I hate this on my Lenovo so much

Why isn’t the Function key somewhere else?? The Control key should be the furthest left.

I cannot copy or paste anything on the first try anymore 😭

One of mine likes to pet my face as he’s cradled in my arms getting belly rubs - no picture of that, but here he is

Kid-1 decided that Baba Yaga looked cold and put her in a pink heart sweater - and I’ve never seen a cat look angrier about it

Just started Arcane and my other favorites are dead/gone and now I’m afraid to get (more) attached to my last remaining favorite

One of the best things I did when I got here was go to Settings > Accessibility and TURN ON the “Require alt text before posting” option!

Time for the annual make my dining table a mess project: lefse! This is my grandmother’s recipe, and it always brings back the making lefse with her, when my help consisted of eating it fresh off the griddle 😂

If you’ve never had lefse, it’s Norwegian potato flat-bread. I like it warm with butter.
