It was supposed to be 8 weeks but turned into 16. See alt.text for block names Tomorrow we will put on the backing and the filling. I am SO proud of these women!!! Learning a new skill & creating together! So grateful for the trust. #speirgorm #quilting #Travellers #fiberarts #community #women
Quilt that is slightly smaller than a twin size. A soft yellow background supports quilt blocks : Church, fiddle, a beady pocket (thats a real pocket), a traditional wagon, wagon wheel, homes around the green, and modern day camper van. Each one made by a different Traveller woman. Some by hand, some embellished with buttons and embroidery.

I learned that @maynoothuniversity.ie has an old apple grove on campus and got me some gorgeous huge TART apples. This is a spiced pecan & apple cake with caramel glaze that I made. #speirgorm #homebaking #cake
A talll light brown Bundt cake sits on a glass cake stand. It is shiny & there is excess caramel dripping off the top and pooling at the base. Crunchy chopped pecans top the cake. It looks delicious and it is delicious!

I discovered an apple grove on campus so tomorrow will be some kind of apple dessert with the storebought crust I have in the fridge
Five green & red apples on a beige table. They smell amazing.

In Chicago they are shooting priests in the face and zipping little kids and loading up parents in vans separated by race.

In Portland they can be held back by inflatable costumes.

Chicago is 35% white
Portland is 70% white
Men in full war gear, masks and helmets, shoot an unarmed clergy member with a pepper bullet in the face.

Look at this cute 2L casserole dish I got at Aldis for €17.

I can’t wait to make chicken pot pie in this. Beef stew. Braised lamb shanks.

Feel free to give me more ideas! #speirgorm #blacksky #blackirish
A round casserole dish that looks like an animita mushroom. The bottom is white and the top is red with white polkadots. It sits on a crowded counter, on top of a white & black checked dish towel.

A car ablaze with black smoke billowing up. The light poles have Irish flags. You can see thr back of a fire truck as it arrives on scene. Traffic is piling up.

Devils Own cocktail twist:

2 part Polish buffalo grass vodka, 1 part Cointreau, 1 part white vermouth, dash of Peychaud bitters. Shake and strain into a chilled coupe, garnish with a twist of mandarin skin.

I think I’ll call it Devil’s Grass 💨

Got myself a Dutch oven. Worth it. Will probably make another chocolate loaf for breakfasts. I can start it today and bake it off tomorrow. #speirgorm #sourdough #homebaking
A beautiful loaf of sourdough bread on a cooling rack. It is dusted all over with whole wheat and the slash is wide open and curling upwards like a wave. My hand holds a slice od sourdough , it is full of big holes and the crust glows gold along the edge. In the background you see the rest of the loaf.

Still allergic to wool. Yes, even superwash. Testing Alpaca on the other arm and mohair on my ankle.

So far mohair is the best.

Alpaca may be ok. Giving it a bit more time.
Mild histamine reaction to sock wool.
