Someone in our neighborhood sells bouquets from the flowers that she grows. She’s on a fairly small lot. I can’t believe how many flowers she manages to grow. #BelieveInFilm #HalfFrameFriday (Pen S)

Three images.
Left: a street corner with a blackboard sign with words “Fresh Cut Flowers”
Middle: bunches of flowers wrapped in brown paper in metal vases
Right: a wooden stand with the flowers on top

My husband asked for a comic about our cat, who is quiet and doesn’t vocalize much. #ink #inkwash

A four panel comic in ink and ink wash.
The first shows the cat’s human asking how she is.
The second shows a can of cat food.
The third shows the cat making “kitty eyes”. (“Cute eyes” or pleading eyes)
The four shows the cat with a thought bubble and the text “meow, meow, meow” while the human puts down a bowl of cat food.

I’m sorry that you’re having a hard time. Here’s my kitty enjoying the sunshine.

Every time I make gluten free bread, it feels like a magic trick. The individual ingredients look like they can’t possibly turn into something that actually tastes like bread.

I crocheted a kitty couch using leftover yarn. 🧶

A cat is sitting on a crochet cat bed shaped like a round sofa with a back. The cat bed is made from various shades of yarn.

Some day I will make a decent photo of violas.

Early birthday cake, made by my hubby. GF chocolate hazelnut.

A slice of chocolate cake with raspberries and whipped cream on a small plate. Next to it is a large plate with a chocolate cake.

There was a hawk hanging out on our deck today! Not very good at id-ing birds, but given that we’re in an urban area of western Washington, we think it’s a juvenile (female?) Cooper’s hawk.

A hawk is sitting on the arm of a metal chair. The metal chairs are stacked. Wire fencing crosses the frame.

So the code that generates the description must be completely isolated from the code that generates the ingredients. 😂

A picture of a piece of cake with an ai generated description of cake and ai generated ingredients of “a slice of ham”

🤔 I seemed to have installed it though.
