🐜 Do you have an actual “giant ants fiction shelf” and, if so, any other themed shelves?!

I have never watched that one.

I’ve seen bits and pieces as they pop up hither and thither, but never got around to actually sitting and watching any of it.

I have a pot brewing in the fridge too! 😋

I’ve got a couple of Habanero 🌶️ in mine to spice things up 😅

🏆 I think I’m going to have to go with my BotY 2024! And fortunately I have the receipts with a 🐈 model…. 🤗

🥇 Now for my Book of the Year 2024, tho I’ve known this was the likely outcome for a good long while 😁

Back in July I had a fabulous time reading “Legacy of Brick & Bone” and also had fun tweeting about highlight scenes with its author, @krystlematar.bsky.social 🏆

📮 That’s some more 🌶️ Chilli Care Packages 📦 deployed into the mail system…

It’s much fun being able to send fresh produce directly from the McTavish Manor Gardens to others to (hopefully 🤞😅🤞) enjoy 🥵

😊

This project started December 2024. 11 months! 😯

They look *awesome*!!!

I’m trying to re-use and re-purpose for my first attempts. I did a rummage through my kitchen cupboards and found loads of empty jars. So I’ve collected them into one cupboard so I know my inventory.

Kind of working with what I’ve got, but you have me tempted 🤔

Ha, no! Two separate things - 🎁 is packing my 🌶️ care 📦 which are gifts, 🎂 is baking a cake with some leftover ingredients - cream, before it goes foosty.

I’ve been astounded at the bubbles that appear from the depth when I move and burp my jars! I think one is particularly active in that regard.

I‘ve been trying to keep them flat and stable when I handle them, to avoid disturbing the gases too much.

You’re not wrong about how satisfying they are!

📋 Off to bed for the final couple of items. An end of the day conclusion…

I had been wondering about an ‘automatic pressure release’ with my clip-top jars… sometimes I get a bit of an external mess, hence why I moved them somewhere accessible and started burping them.

I’ve been using cabbage leaves in my subsequent efforts in an effort to keep everything submerged.

I immediately decided on Dinosaurs as my prompt answer, and yours was the book that kept popping to mind as I left this one to brew all day!

It’s 🦖 and 🦕 for me all the way, if I could get my Time Machine™️ to work successfully.

So I’m going to have to nominate @jcmberne.bsky.social’s “Partial Function” for today’s prompt, though I confess I have yet to read it 🫢🫣 Oopzi! 😰

🌶️ Time to harvest a fresh batch of pods for some more assorted pick’n’mix 🌶️ Chilli Care Packages 📦 that I’ll be sending out very soon…

🤗

I note some plants suffering from leaf drop now.

This job takes a few hours to complete, so updates to follow…
