My little Sicily plants are going crazy in the hanging baskets this year. Doing better than the tumblers even.
This is my ninja son now. I'm going to train him like the girl who trained her dog to roundhouse kick.
I grew this in my garden this year. First spotted as a wee baby in my dill.
Big Mama is back! Don't mess with her babies. She will wave her arm at you alarmingly (alarming to me at least, I am low-key afraid of her).
Sweater for the homie Chelsea finished and delivered. She looks adorable in it, as per usual. It was cozier than I expected, might have to bust out one for myself. 🧶
Gave this jag an extra blanket because it's been so cold, obviously he really needed it. Excuse me for caring sir.
Traveling for Christmas this year so we have a pared down tree situation. Still smells good, I'll take it.
Me and the homie kickin' it on the balcony enjoying the evening breeze.
Photographic evidence of why my budget and my couch cushions are busted.
Across the street neighbor cat patiently waiting for next door neighbor cat to come outside.
Pretending saying blue MAGA is racist...some of y'all have lost the fuckin' plot again.
It's not pretty but damn the deviled egg toast at Speckled Egg is so good.
Cringe is officially a dead concept. Describing genocide this way, with that PFP and name and banner, and you think other folks are cringe? That shit dead AF, stick a fork in it.
And hell let's throw on a WIP for #ShowMeYourKnits, the Oh Valencia sock in Hedgehog Fibers Sock, $26 on sale.
This was for my husband, who has a loooooong torso, it was $112 and only because I caught the bulk packs on discount.
I see folks saying make your own clothes to avoid tariffs. Aside from the fact materials are also subject to tariffs, a brief thread on knitting costs. 🧶 First up, by far my cheapest pair of knit socks, yarn cost $16. (My dog is concerned about global economics.)
Frogged a bunch of black cashmerino and it looks uncannily like bundles. 🧶
Sewing in ends is my absolute least favorite thing by so much. Massive hater. 🧶 Pattern: ravel.me/misheel
