Korean kimchi making equipment meets Finnish forest mushrooms!
A large orange, round plastic tarp with edges, similar to a kids swimming pool, is laid out on the living room floor. A veritable mountain of funnel chanterelle mushrooms has been upended into it, awaiting cleaning.

Everyone is happy under the #C banner.

Or wait, was that something else...?
Drawing of three people hugging each other, variously happy, relieved, and driven; they have achieved something great. Behind them, a large red flag waves with "C." written on it.

Made quick and easy mifu tikka masala (ISH) and naan bread (ish) for lunch. I feel like I've accomplished something!

Very bare-bonus Zed setup, I've barely even changed the settings. Too much code to write.
Zed editor open to uncommitted changes in Nova JS engine project, showing many Rust borrow checker problems related to build-time checks related to a safepoint garbage collector implemented using Rust's lifetimes.

It snowed a bit during the last two days. I shoveled the snow twice in 16 hours
Powdery snow is piled up thick on tree branches, against a bright, high, and cloudless sky, a sign of a cold day.
