last week i spent a few nights in a treehouse on a small island reached by canoe it was heavenly & needed
dug deep in the camera roll for a cucamelon ("mouse" melon) 😂
it looks frickin delicious. last year we grew "mouse melons" - so small, so cute! our only melon to this point. this year, we've got flowers and smaller edibles so far (zone 8b-ish). shelling peas, sugar snaps coming in now hot & heavy & delicious - lots of greens.
Look at this beautifully laid out list of errata that's included with the book 😭
NaLyssa Smith however only took shots in the paint (4-5 FG) and she shot exactly as many free throws as Awak Kuier: 4 FTs. Only Kuier went 4-4 and Smith went 1-4 from the line. #WNBA
I was surprised A'ja wasn't more aggressive taking it to the basket. She made two driving lay ups in the 4Q, but missed all her jumpers. Wilson would have shot more free throws if she kept driving. Coach Hammon is right the Aces had a lot of self-inflicted wounds & Dallas made shots. #WNBA
If you look closely, you can see the imprinted (backwards) #22 from the A'ja Wilson jersey I bought A'ja's rookie year. That shit was cheap & then I sat against this pillow a lot during the pandemic & the # wore off. Maybe time for a new A'ja jersey... #WNBA #AjaWilson
i did my duty (from the west coast) for my friend in ATL this morning!
Me, watching the end of #MistBC v #LacesBC: #Unrivaled
sent this pic & skylar quote to a milk-loving friend & got this back.
my love & i made and then waterbath canned 14 quarts of salsa today 🥵 the tomatoes & peppers we grew from seed (for the first time!). onions also from our garden. no spontaneous trip up to the Storm game tonight - but we're cheering from home! #wnba
our teenager makes hilarious (cringing) facial expressions when i wear these sunglasses that were the freebie at a seattle storm game a few weeks ago. it's as if they think i look un-cool or something! lol
tomatoes from seed outside!! we can't really do that here (stays chilly too long) & we usually buy starts but this year we set up lights & heating pads on shelves in our kitchen and did start our tomatoes from seed indoors. it was touch & go but they look good now!
I've always loved the Seattle Storm's in-arena entertainment (Sue Bird's "Between Two Birds" was weird & hilarious). This season they have a challenge where a fan has to make 4 free throws faster than Gabby Williams can solve a Rubik's cube. Today's fan *just* won! #WNBA #KeepSeattleWeird
6 games tonight & ESPN is giving this center stage 🙄
The Valkyries come out of halftime poised & able to keep relying on their original game plan, bc Seattle hasn't effectively solved the 2-3 zone defense. Golden State wins the 3Q by 1 point & is up 64-50 entering the 4th. Here's the Valkyries 3Q shot chart. Every make is in the paint. #WNBA
Here's the Valkyries' made shot chart, through 5:24 2Q. Against the team with Ezi and Nneka. #WNBA
