4️⃣0️⃣ something | Always finding new things to be fixated on, gaming, cooking, gardening, reading, soapmaking, writing, mini panting...
I might have had the tiniest crash out while on travel last week. Final night of a business trip getting AI shoved down my throat and eating only hotel catering for a week, I order dinner.

For additional context, this was tsukemen (dipping) ramen. Thankfully the hotel concierge had utensil packs.

Next book. I’m on a ‘food’ kick.

The last harvest from my deck, the apple butter I made over the weekend, and a sourdough culture I’m creating from scratch.

I also made 3 batches of soap Sunday but those aren’t ready for pictures.

Old swamps that don't look inherently evil.

Also old plains that DO look inherently evil.

I have formulated a complete backyard overhaul for a veg garden. Now, if I can just gather enough energy and willpower to pull up hundreds of pounds of brick, then buy some raised beds and a lot of dirt/compost. (underneath the brick is highly compacted clay)

New library book.

Woke up to an adult 5-lined skink hanging out in a bathroom. Always thankful I grew up around so many animals and worked in a pet shop cause eventually I said, "just bite me, you don't have any teeth that matter".

The autocorrect thinks 'skink' is spelled wrong btw.

Is this the horse game everyone’s been talking about?

If you live in the NE+Mid-Atlantic or upper MW the tick season is kicking off in a hurry. Now is the time to spray your clothes with permethrin (read the label for safe application).

I'm so happy Jeff and Wilma are doing well. I've been waiting for so long.

*starts gnawing on his arm* I lub him so much.

Yea, that about sums up my year.

Most of my soaps are finished with curing and have been wrapped up for gift giving!

This year’s Wrapped is as silly and entertaining as always. I don’t even understand the jumble of words that is the July genre.

Most listened artist was Jizue, same as the last several years.

The third successful soap I made. Would up the super fat, though I'm realizing I want to do that across the board with every recipe I've made.

The second soap I made. Meant to be a kitchen soap. The 10x orange is stronger than I wanted in the blend but I think it will fade faster than the lemongrass over time. The soap molds are cute but a little hard to unmold from.

I kinda like the sticky-note design I've made, we'll see if I keep it.

I'm going to start doing this for the soaps I've made.

First up is a 100% rice bran oil soap scented with fresh apples. The fragrance was headache inducing strong for the first week but has since died down to a very pleasant level.

This will be finished curing between Nov 6-20.
