This morning I had not seen Speed Racer. I just came back from a sold out showing of Speed Racer and my life is richer for it.

Things I know about Buffalo Hunter Hunter by @sgj.bsky.social based on listening to my wife listen to the audio book. "Oh god." "Oh god" (more emphatically) Some giggling. "Oh. OH." A soft whimper. "no." I am looking forward to finishing my own book(s) and getting to read it! Bodes well.
I know I’m extremely late to the party, but I enormously enjoyed @tkingfisher.com’s Nettle & Bone. Just a terrific read about human characters who happen to be Princesses and Witches on a crazy road trip to kill a dude who has it coming. 5 stars from me, will read again. #booksky
I drew @elleskinner.bsky.social 's cat Scribble, I was struggling with the perspective so it ended up very different than normal #illustration #art
The gift of some (very) ripe tomatoes meant i tried to make some sauce for the first time. More of a veggie sauce but super good. Not pictures, the giant zucchini that I added the less-seedy half of. It and the jally are from my garden. 🌿
Finally cracked open "The Staircase in the Woods" and the vibes are on point for spooky month. The survivor cannibalism non-fic was just not getting to the point and lingering too long on the newspaper baron who financed the trip. Set sail already!
Me, while cleaning the bathroom: if you don't have homemade autism, store-bought is just fine
Loved the Knights of Guinevere pilot so much. I'm horrified and intrigued and cannot wait to see what's coming. I want to try my hand at broken Guinevere next :) #knightsofguinevere #kog #fanart #watercolor
How it started, how is going. Doing a mystery quilt square with my mom. I picked halloween fabrics!
Playing Kingdom Hearts for the first time since it was new. Let's go! I seem to remember none of them are real...? The island where no one remembers anything makes more sense that way.
This weeks reading wrap up: I finished "The Last Hour Between Worlds" by Melissa Caruso and MAN was I hooked. Feels a little like someone had SO MANY CARDS TO SHOW YOU and couldn't quite wait for the next book (no, seriously it's probably a trilogy) but also I am SO ready for the next one
I have read, for surgery recovery and for the holiday, a typical romance novel I picked up out of a little free library. I ask. Are the straights alright? This book was Not Good and I finished it for the side characters and because I MUST. Now to read Piranesi as a cleanser.

So many things came out of the kiln on Monday and yesterday and I’m trying to photograph them but the weather isn’t really obliging with decent light. Anyway these melted candlestick tea light holders are my favourite.
I have had a drink and I am a lightweight. It is time to compliment art!
A benefit to my sibling not being on socials is I can share her winter gift WIPs with you guys. We're doing handmade gifts this year and so she is getting doll clothes for some very naked nendoroids.
Learned to change the oil in a car today! Excited to change everyone's oil now, watch out world!!
I have a really nice Amantillado in my robovan. Oh, I insist, after you.
With the exception of necessary mystery cleaning (that probably predates us living here because it was under the hinges) that was easier than anticipated. Toilet seat changed. 👍 #handygay
Time to see if I can install a toilet seat. Stay tuned. #handygay
