Trying to watch the Loons and the election results and crochet at the same time.

It's really awful out.

Here I am blithely getting uncooked greens ready for a bun salad. From my garden and my local CSA.

Tofte MN Fourth of July parade

We appear to be completely missing the weather chaos at home and in DC. It's gorgeous in Tofte MN

Lake Agnes

Rhubarb and honey berry muffins and cobbler.

Tour de Luce

I made my first dish with dried fava beans last week. Found fresh ones at the co-op today. Did the first shelling.

Silver miniatures from India. These belonged to my great aunt and were eventually passed down to me.

Made myself a new purse. I thrifted some of the fabric, received some from Buy Nothing and Facebook Marketplace. #craftsky. Link to pattern below.

Turtle and alligator sharing a log. Photo credit to my kid.

Woke up to sun and thought I better rake the solar panels. Unfortunately the roof rake is frozen to the roof. And I am not the one who left it there. #solar #mnwx

Crochet for the times. #dumpsterfire

Tim Homan (allegedly) accepted the $50,000 bribe in a bag from Cava. I often pick up a bowl from Cava when I fly through National Airport in DC. I now have a Cava bag (and ate a good lunch). What should we fill it with to entice him and his goons to leave? Legal answers only.

This a car full of ice agents that was a block from my house this afternoon.

And now for the save... #gotbackup

Apparently this wanted to be cake balls instead of the cathedral window bunt cake I envisioning. #cakefail

Merry Christmas to all who celebrate. The Jew and the Muslim will be starting our morning with Chinese pastries from Zao.

Snowflakes right out of the oven. #crochet #craftsky P.s. used the dehydrate setting on my oven to speed up drying after dipping in stiffener

Finished a gift for someone special. It's a garden apron made from old jeans and an old shirt. They aren't on BlueSky do hopefully they won't see it. #craftsky #upcycled

Made these cranberry orange rolls for breakfast this morning. Subbed spelt and whole wheat flours for all purpose. Recipe in comments. #breadsky

Took my teen practice driving. Then picked mustard greens in the yard before coming in. A few hours later, couldn't find my keys. Spent an hour looking including going back to the parking lot where we switched drivers. Finally found them hanging from the pocket in which I store lids.

A tiny bit of aurora.

Sweet potatoes, tomatillos, tomatoes, onion, garlic, salt, pepper and olive oil. Ready to go in the oven.

An ornamental sweet potato vine I planted in a container resulted in quite a large tuber. I am prepping it for winter storage. Now I need to remember to take it out in March and root it. #gardening

Voter 132 at my polling place.

Ready for Halloween! Candy for the kids and whistles and 'zines for the adults in case that not so nice organization arrives in the neighborhood.

Who's here? #mnufc
