Crafter,sewist & tinkerer in the kitchen & in general. Lived most of my life in my corner of the "Great North Woods" Cats are okay, but dogs rule! I want to live in a Gene Roddenberry world, but I might settle for a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away.

Why not? Sometimes you just have to. But, then, I made this for the Mason jars I use for smoothies!

Picture of a canning jar wearing a cosy, crocheted to fit, and topped off with a flip-top lid.
My blender fits regular canning jars so I make them right in the jar I'm going to drink from.
The lid seals tight, so they are easy to bring on the go.

My first data center was our set of Encyclopedia Britannica. When I got a little older & was allowed to bike there, I expanded to a data center that had it's own built-in search engine/file manager.

Image is a picture of a hardbound set of Encyclopedia Britannica volumes. We had a set of these at home. I didn't just go to them for homework research, I wold often grab one at random & just read for the fun of it.

This is the Public Library in the village I grew up in. Long before personal computers or the internet we used to go there to actually read the books!

Photo of part of a library card catalog. In the drawers you would find 3"x5" cards that had the book's Dewey Decimal classification that notated where you could find it in the library. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dewey_Decimal_Classification

COSMIC AVOCADO! Not just boring ol' regular avocado.

Be careful what you attach your signature to!

So, yesterday I talked to a nephew out west about how a lot of our snow has melted away, leaving behind the plow piled, sand covered snow. Well, we got a little snow overnight that took care of that! It's pretty, but now I'll have to shell out more $'s to clean the drive, one more time (🤞).

The view outside my front door this morning after it snowed through the night & filled in for the snow that had melted away.

#woodworkers #carpenters I'm hoping to find a glue to rebuild a wooden stool. The stool "lives" in my van btween uses so I'm hoping for a glue thatt80 will hold up thru high & below freezing temperatures. Is there something out there?

Parts of an disassembled wooden stool waiting to be rebuilt. Got any suggestions for a good glue that will hold thru high & freezing temperatures? It will stay in my van between uses.

And these are just the goons that Noem sent.

Oh, NOW they're concerned about spreading misinformation.

I think this is what they're talking about. Made it some years ago, no loom, 6 strands of embroidery floss, one end pinned to my pantleg, probably, so long ago I can't recall. I do macrame too & I would consider this friendship bracelet a type of braid.
