Evicted this lil guy from our garage.

Thank you, really enjoying the fall weather here too :)

Early fall mornings here are breath-taking.

Photograph of riverside lawn, trees, and a fire pit with morning sunlight streaked across them.

RL “Stardew” farming update: Asian eggplants, okra, and first harvest of Chinese okra (luffa). Forgot to plant the luffa till pretty late in the season, impressed by how well they are doing.

Eggplants making a rebound with weather cooling down. Beautiful sunrise this morning too.

Finally opened up the gauche kit mom helped me get half a year ago. Photo study. Weather has been ridiculously amazing in Arkansas last couple of days. Unsure if false fall or real fall but I will take it! Photo taken last year in CO.

First time seeing rainbow at home since we moved. Beautiful evening overall.

Sketch night doodle, immersed for a few hours in nostalgia-inducing nerd chatters about DnD and jokes/stories about the industry from a highly problematic but also in some ways purer time.

Lunch sketch group sketch. Getting the itch for pencil drawings again - been kind of slowly falling out of digital paintings since the AI pocalypse

Becoming a soup person due to the overwhelming need of eating up garden vegetables as well as the pure deliciousness.

Corn flowering.

Happy 4th!

Grace Liu (NightblueArt) @graceliu.bsky.social · Jul 4

From garden, about to become delicious soup. Grateful to have something to look forward to every day.

This morning’s garden harvest. We need to find a way to eat vegetables way faster!

In OG WoW, I loved running around in Un'goro Crater hunting and skinning everything as a happy little hunter. So I really enjoyed painting the signature card version of Restore the Wild for Hearthstone's The Lost City expansion. Many thanks to the AD Jim Nelson and the team. ©Blizzard Entertainment

The last piece of gear of Night Hunter of Hornworms, Head Net of Protection from Mosquitoes +1, is now ready in my deployment menu. Tried out the black light last night & caught 6 of those buggers poised to decimate humanity/tomatoes. Next time there will be less void debuff of buzzing & biting.

Better than reading the obituary of US democracy.

Just a little over a week into growing, the pea sprouts are ready for first harvest. Looking forward to having some fresh greens tonight!

Father’s Day delivery to my dad, then today’s haul. The smaller rounder brown sugar tomatoes taste reminiscent of a really tasty tomato variety we used to enjoy as fruit in NE China when I was a kid, as I hoped.

Last couple of day’s harvest

This is the first time we stayed home for 3 weeks (and going!) in a row since we started the moving process. Posting some garden updates: tomatoes, bell pepper are getting big. Eggplants and cucumbers are starting to form.

2 sunny days in a row without rain is kinda rare during the last couple weeks!

Nice evening after a few stormy days 🥰
