I've been focused on plants and gardening, and also interested in sewing and garment creation, and NOW I'm segueing into learning to code. Hopefully this interest is as prolific as the other two!
Also I made a crochet sunhat (all hail the finished project!) (not featured is my very first quilt)

My next early reader comic, Frankie and the Curious Cocoon Quest, is now available for preorder!
The 32 page hardcover book follows Frankie the scary fairy as she searches for her missing pet wooly bear - who just might be a moth by the time Frankie finds her. 💙🐛

In today's garden update: I moved some sun loving plants (in pots) into the sun
MERE MOMENTS
before a storm warning whacked my phone, the skies clouded over, and a steady rain began it's deluge.
Try again tomorrow, friends. 😄

Oh, heck. Y'all can have a garden update as well! This one's on me 😘
We were beset by rodents, groundhogs or rabbits monched many of my peas, the tops of half my tomatoes, and trampled my turnips. Still, she's thriving. :)

Oh, bet. I was hiding from social media for a wee bit so I never shared my seedlings! Mostly tomatoes, peas, and peppers rn. I hucked some turnips in with my peas yesterday, hope they get along alright.

Sometimes you get garden space before you get other supplies. Hopefully these old seeds will germinate.
Sometime next week I'll be visiting a local seed library. Building raised beds. Planting a cold frame out. These are the goals! Spring is coming, let's goo.

Idgaf I’m still fighting for guaranteed healthcare.
Aspiration is the answer. Not just “we’re not the bad guys.”
We need something more meaningful than that. I want a future worth fighting for. They have no vision. We do. Lean into our strengths and knock them out. 👊🏽

I'm working on my toddlers "educational curriculum" and I'd like to include a second language practice - does anyone know any free resources/favorite YouTube channels we can use for a toddler and her mom learning Spanish (I know a good bit but I'm not fluent)
Thanks in advance!

Today I'm going to tackle a doom-pile in my bedroom and set up my sewing machine for the first time in almost a year? And then maybe actually make the small stack of projects I've been dreaming of? Let's go 2025!

Imma need all American folks to sit down and reflect with arguments about how China is bad because of their genocidal activity, killing of political adversaries, and suppression of radical speech.
Monday is MLK day.

I've got two partial quilts to work on, and then I may venture into making a dress for my little!
On other fronts, I'm dipping my toes into landscape design in an attempt to educate myself until I can afford a formal education.
