Lashana Lynch.

Watch The Woman King and then follow it up with Matilda the Musical if you want to see range.
A headshot of Lashana Lynch, a Black British actress with a short, natural hair style. She is wearing a fuchsia gown that exposes some of her chest in an offset, vertical slit. She wears dangling diamond earrings.

But also one of the (there are several) best scenes of Spy
Melissa McCarthy in Spy, a 2015 movie. She is fighting an adversary spy in a restaurant kitchen. Melissa’s character is holding a cast iron skillet defending herself from multiple attacks from her adversary’s chef knife, procured from the kitchen. At some point McCarthy’s character blocks a stab at her boobs and her crotch and uses the mise en place as a distraction. I should watch this again.

J.R.R. Tolkien
The Silmarillion: Ainulindalë
J.R.R. Tolkien The Silmarillion: Ainulindalë Now the Valar took to themselves shape and hue; and because they were drawn into the World by love of the Children of Ilúvatar, for whom they hoped, they took shape after that manner which they had beheld in the Vision of Ilúvatar, save only in majesty and splendour. Moreover their shape comes of their knowledge of the visible World, rather than of the World itself; and they need it not, save only as we use raiment, and yet we may be naked and suffer no loss of our being. Therefore the Valar may walk, if they will, unclad, and then even the Eldar cannot clearly perceive them, though they be present. But when they desire to clothe themselves the Valar take upon them forms some as of male and some as of female; for that difference of temper they had even from their beginning, and it is but bodied forth in the choice of each, not made by the choice, even as with us male and female may be shown by the raiment but is not made thereby. But the shapes wherein the Great Ones array themselves are not at all times like to the shapes of the kings and queens of the Children of Ilúvatar; for at times they may clothe themselves in their own thought, made visible in forms of majesty and dread.

An echinacea defying the juniper.
An purpleish echinacea blooming despite the showdowns from the juniper under which it lives.

Norway spruce.
The leader of the Norway spruce that went wild. It’s been way too humid for months. Maybe that why it’s going wild? The entirety of the norway spruce, the middle part eaten by deer. More wolves, please.

A mallow. Mostly white on the outer flower, but veining and increasingly purple as it gets to the ovary/stamen part.

Fuck deers.

I’m a Minnesotan so I have the right to hate deer. And love wolves. (Horse people hate wolves; pay for better fences).
Mallow plant. Small, surrounded by chicken fencing because of deer. It’s a pretty, pretty… pretty flowering plant. If it’s not devoured.

If the deer would stop fucking with us and eating the things that get past the chicken wire, this hollyhock could be somebody
Hollyhock flower. Similar to a perennial hibiscus bloom, but kind of not as resplendent, albeit taller. The flower is some variety of crimson. If the deer stop eating the blooms that grow outside of the chicken wire, it could be somebody.

This is Stacey. I did not name her. I am here to “watch” this cat.

A cat whose paws are so, so tiny. But so loud on the floor. And so daggerous on the belly.

She is an incarnation of a vengeful surface area. A gremlin of noise and pain.
A small, innocent seeming calico. Black and orange patches.

Jogging is the worst! I know that it keeps you healthy. But, god!? At what cost…

Tired little calico, head and paws curled up on a humans hip, dangling its white feet to rest on the couch, thin black tail curled around their thighs.

Fluffy cumulonimbus clouds, dark, ominous bellies but sun-kissed and marshmallow white on their cottony tops Cumulonimbus breaking apart after the storm. Sun blazing, pure white clumps and strands of cotton candy against a deep blue sky

This was before dinner. There was homemade bleu cheese dressing.
Iceberg lettuce wedge, cherry tomatoes, fried onions and bacon; not pictured: bleu cheese dressing.

Not pretty but good
NY strip cooked to near perfection by my brother, grilled asparagus with hollandaise, which I made, half of a double baked potato that I also made but with extra sour cream because I’m trash.

I know it’s ridiculous but the holiday in which I do not believe provides an excuse.
Deviled eggs on grandmas tiered…. Thing. Double baked potatoes and steak waiting to be cooked.

I made a thing
Napkin folded in the shape of a rabbit head with floppy ears, set on a plate. I put big, googly eyes on my niece’s place-setting.

I’m never doing this again.

Add an hour to any recipe that makes you caramelize un-yohn (as Justin Wilson would say).
Golden brown and delicious fried onions. They took way too long to cook.
