It is DONE! I'm so excited about this Rilakkuma hat. Using super bulky yarn, it's a pretty quick project. Anywho, I hope fans of this big ol' bear enjoy. 🩵🐻 With the right colored yarn and felt, you could also make Korilakkuma. 🩷🐻

In addition to it being Wrecked's anniversary airdate, it's also a holiday of some sort in the US.

Is the holiday a sham? Undoubtedly. But it is a sham with yams. A yam sham, if you will.

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone celebrating today! May your Thanksgiving be blessedly Angel-free.

Happy Thanksgiving, Bluesky pals!

In today's news, reliance on AI is absolutely frying the brains of people who can't be bothered to learn a craft.

Y'all, I can't get over how much she's grown in just two months. She was only as big as my hand when I found her.

Since this post caught me red handed and tight jawed, you get the reminder, too.

With two pies in the fridge and the promise of avoiding socializing, the only thing that could make this Thanksgiving better would be if I had a harmless and slightly sarcastic vampire at my table, but I guess I'll have to settle for watching "Pangs" again instead.

I went for a different angle hoping for a more appealing photo, and all I got was a reminder that I am unmatched at slicing unequal portions. 💪🏻

This might look like poo in a pie pan, but this date pie is one of the best desserts I've ever made. I feel like I'm on a redemption arc after the pecan pie was still completely liquid under the burnt surface a day later.

I hit major burnout with crochet while working on my tapestry, but when I come back to it, I'd like to make some ACNH amigurumi.

If I've learned anything from art modeling, it's that good lighting can improve anything. Does it change the fact that the pie is burnt on top? No, but it sure it prettier here in all its imperfect glory.

While I was rotating the pecan pie, Gremmy Grub helped my partner decorate a tree. This'll be the first tree I've had in my whole adult life because cats. 😂 We have a high mantel now to put it on, so nobody will be eating plastic branches or bulbs. (Tippy LOVES bulbs.)

Only having a convection oven to bake with is fun. Just look at that uneven bake. 😂 But hey, for my first ever pecan pie, I'm not too bummed about it. I think it'll be tasty under the surface. 🤞🏻

This image is making the rounds on a few Facebook pages I follow, and I was so sad to find out that it's not made by a human. Even illustration-like images created by computers are becoming difficult to separate from art.
