This year I had meal help. 16 yr old made a mashed potato bake, 20 yr old made a mixed berry pie, & my wife made a chocolate sheet cake. Unfortunately the latter was covered in foil & placed on the bay window ledge only to be annexed as one of the cats decided to sit on the crinkly foil.

Considering options for volumetric LED cube. Am trying to straighten pebble lights in these tubes. There is a back channel signal wire currently superglued & I pulled this through with a thread. Thoughts on support to glue lights to & straighten? Grateful for technique & material ideas.

Solution for the second SwiftUI app students needed to build for Mid-Term #2: World Explorer. Create structs to parse JSON from a URLSession API call. Change call based on PickerView. #CSed feel free to use if valuable.

Started knitting the Arctic Throw but I kept messing up the seed stitch since I’ve never purled in my projects. Decided to do a blanket of similar size but all knit stitch. Figured it’d let me zone out which is why I knit, rather than stressing with seed stitch. Sound OK?
