Kind people need other kind people.
Unfortunately the cruel ones tend to get there first.
They see kindness as weakness.
Prove them wrong.
Create an army of kindness. ♥️

What I wouldn't give for a simple sandwich with dense sourdough bread, thick spread butter, homemade fries, and slices of extra sharp cheddar cheese
Having food allergies to things you used to love is cruel. 😭

That's how I had them when I was little! 😁

Some silly post: "If you had to feed a family of 4 and you only have $20, what are you buying from the grocery store?"

Me: "What? For one meal? Ha! I could feed them for DAYS on $20!"

Just me, or....

Oh! That's super easy! K1p2 rib for top, and2x2 rib where every other 2 rows is plain stockinette. 😁
I wrote it in my notebook for future knitting
Thank you!

I'm still a bit new to knitting some stuff. I'm sure it will click eventually. I've watched SO MANY videos. And it makes sense in the video. Until it's MY knitting in hand. Then it just looks like a million random strands of spaghetti 😂

Thanks!

Thanks! I'll look into it now 😊

I don't think I've ever gotten them all TBH 😂
I started using a tiny crochet hook to pick up the stitches and that helps. But I'm always wondering if I'm actually picking up the right part of the stitch or I am just guessing

ADHDcrafter @adhdcrafter9.bsky.social · 4d

That is my go to also. But I thought I would try something new that didn't have me picking up stitches on black yarn 😅

(tried to take a pic, but it's, of course, black yarn and you can't see the stitches)

Ok #sockknitting folks, I need help and the internet isn't being helpful 😅
I'm trying a short row heel with a wrap and turn.
The increase rows were fine. But my decrease rows are leaving gaps? No idea why. I'm picking up the wrap, wrapping the next stitch and turning.
HALP 😅

As a person with stim issues regarding food, meal prepping the same thing for multiple meals is hard. So I meal prep things that I can change into other things with sauces or spices. That way I don't have to eat the same dinner twice in a row if I can't want to!

I think a lot of people underestimate the importance of spices. That and/or they were never taught how to use them.
I made chicken burrito bowls night before last. Some of the leftovers stayed Mexican just different spices added, tonight they became curry. The last bit will be fried rice tomorrow 😁

And there is a LOT of it 😂
I don't know if you can tell, but that is a very large couch cushion that he is taking up room on. He's large.

That is beautiful! Also I LOVE that color!!! I am always on the hunt for that shade of green!!!

Today I'm having big feelings about how the previous generations kept us in the dark about #menopause and the fuckery that the body goes through before ( #perimenopause).
The next generations to go through it will be better prepared and I love that for them ❤️

I may have over done it on the spicy spice for my picadillo tacos.
I also may go back for a couple more...
