I love the idea of #PinkSky! However, I have two accounts on BlueSky (personal and podcast).
I can’t figure out how to switch between both profiles on PinkSky.
Anyone know? 🤷🏼‍♀️🦩

Enjoying some apple chutney from our friends across the country, Mac and Rebecca.

They are the leading authorities on Jonestown and run an excellent website: jonestown.sdsu.edu
In their down time they make chutneys, sauces, and jams.
What don’t they do??
