Honestly, there are so many parallels with Zohran's campaign and AOC's first campaign back in '18: charismatic, progressive candidates taking on the big Dem establishment machine that won with clear, exciting messaging, an incredible relentless ground game, and killer logos/signage.
Primary poster for AOC's 2018 campaign. It has a bright yellow background, with blue lettering/ graphic design.

When I was little I used to collect Amy Brown fairies, and they've just been kind of sitting around. My dad had the idea of putting them in jars with solar lights for outdoor decor....guys if post doesn't work out I might have a promising Etsy career ahead of me
Three large jars with Any Brown fairies in them with decoration. They have pebble bases, topped with decorative glass pebbles, moss, and fake flowers. Close up of one Amy Brown fairy jars with pebble base, moss, dried rose petals and assorted blue flowers. Close up of butterfly themed Amy Brown jar with pebble base, dried rose petals, with assorted blue, pink, and purple flowers Close up of Amy Brown jar with ivy/moss and fern theme.

I recently made a sauce vierge (tomatoes, lemon juice, herbs, OO) for fish, that was lovely.

Also made a version of this last night but instead of sun dried used fresh and it was delicious
