Enjoying though I didn’t realize it was a romance. I could see it building to that and I’m okay with it. The world building is wonderful, the magic interesting, I’m not even half way through so I’m excited to see the character progression. #books #fantasy #romantasy #romance #booksky

Teriyaki Tofu is one of the best things. Served with brown rice, green onion, pickled ginger, garden cucumber. I love how simple a real teriyaki is and so much flavour! My kids love it too. #meals #cooking #cook #food #simple

I feel like total ass but my pizza came out good. Someone come eat it cause I’m going to bed. #noodles #pizza #cooking #foodsky #food #margherita #bleh

I regret to inform you all that these are the best pancakes of all time but they are in my house so you probably won’t get any. I will take applications for resident pancake eaters/dish washers. #food #foodsky #cooking #breakfast

Yes I put on my Hobbit feel outfits to pickle yes I’m wearing a snood if you’re not wearing a snood you’re not even living. #snoodlife #pickles #history #cosplay #food #canning #preserving #prepping #hobbits

25 hours of lectures on daily life in the ancient world is like dessert for me. This has been my bedtime book for the last few months and I enjoy listening to the same chapters over and over, picking up things I missed. It’s included in audible’s plus catalogue rn. #audiobooks #history #book

A bursting explosion of berries on my bushes will result in hopefully much jam for the winter 🥹 I love blackberries I think of all the berries because when you are patient and you wait until they are heavy and sticky it’s like tasting summer. #food #foodsky #fruit #preservation #cooking #gardening

I’ve been blessed this year to get a spot with a local organic veggie delivery from my dear friend’s farm. I urge you to see if there is one near you! I find it comparable to store prices but the quality is exceptional and supports independent growers. #food #foodsky #veggies #eat #organic #basket

Sour cherry syrup. The colour is all from the cherries. Sour cherry soda is going to be so good. Maybe with some ginger? #preserves #cooking #foodsky #food

Dutch baby day! Fresh local blueberries, lemon squeeze, sugar dust. 10/10 Recipe, not my own: www.reddit.com/r/Baking/com... #food #foodsky #baking #bakes #bake #fruit #localeating #localfood #organic #homemade #germanpancake #castiron

Harrowsmith cookbook Chocolate Applesauce Bundt Cake. I love those cookbooks too, they’re specifically a Canadian thing compiled out of all the Harrowsmith Country Magazines. This was delicious and tasted like chocolate gingerbread. I wanted to use up my home made applesauce from last season. #food

Rib close up. I made Memphis dust for the rub and used a butter/peach juice blend after baking to steam them in foil. The binder was mustard and Worcestershire with a dry brine the night before. Next time I’ll make my own BBQ because store bought was not tangy enough for me. #food #foodsky

This book is scratching itches I didn’t even know I had. Picture an entire library set with a hot pot of tea, a plate of fresh scones, and rain spattering on windows now cast an incantation to turn the whole thing into a novel; this is what you’d get. #fantasy #booksky #fiction #reads #specfic

I think the happiness scales with the amount of cats and books you have times the presence of a hot or iced beverage to the power of degree of stormy weather. However there are diminishing returns on all of these factors. The returns could be tested. 10000 books? 20 cats? 3 drinks. No tornadoes.

Is there anything by better than reading a book with a cat snuggling you? No. #BookSky #CatSky

Swedish Cardamom Buns. I had a mighty craving that has been fulfilled. And now my tummy hurts. But tomorrow I will eat another one. Only one! #food #foodsky #baking #cozy #bakes

KotD (kitten of the day) Biscuit, 8 weeks, tuckered out and having a power nap. They’re so like human babies. Play play play, eat, poop, sleep. #blackcats #blackcatsofbluesky #kitten #kittens #cat #void #catsky

I have been reading Middlemarch FOREVER. I’m loving it but there really isn’t any food scenes and that’s what I really love to quote about. There are a great many good quotes though. She’s an absolute genius, actually. I can see why this book is well loved. #literature #classics #booksky

"Society never made the preposterous demand that a man should think as much about his own qualifications for making a charming girl happy as he thinks of hers for making himself happy. As if a man could choose not only his wife, but his wife's husband!"🤣💀 Middlemarch -G.Eliot #literature #booksky

I hope they’re plotting to take over the world I think squirrels would do a better job tbh #animals #nature #photography #cute

Food notes in alt text. I’m into eating like this rn. I got a platters and boards “cookbook” and it’s very fun and inspiring. The vegetables and fruit available in June are also inspiring. #foodsky #eatinglocal #seasonalfood

I want to support everyone with their projects but it seems like all the book feeds are just promotions.

First garlic of the season, hell yeah it’s on. #food #foodsky #garlic #localfood #cheese #brie

Criteria for a good bedtime audiobook book: ✅ Interesting but not gripping ✅ Soothing, calm voice ✅ Anxiety free subject matter This is a beautiful book that I’m really enjoying listening to over Pride and Indigenous Peoples month. I recommend it. #queer #booksky #2slgbtqia+ #lbgt+

“Confound you handsome young fellows, you think of having your own way in the world. You don’t understand women! They don’t admire you half as much as you admire yourself.” Middlemarch, George Eliot #literature #classics #quotes #women #booksky #books #reading #reads #fiction

Next read. I’ve had a hold on it for a while and I know it’s not “popular” anymore but any author that won a Hugo gets my respect. I think? Maybe not maybe the Hugo’s are corrupt. Wouldn’t be surprised lol #sff #scifi #booksky #books #reading #scififantasy #sciencefiction #dystopia #specfic

I think she’s probably right about this happening, to what degree, when, and exactly how we’ll find out. The rich already eat people and are a different kind of human after centuries of wealth hoarding affecting their empathy. I have mixed feelings about this book. #horror #horrorlit #specfic

Current read. I expected to be just appalled and horrified by this book given what others have said about it. I’m not horrified I’m exhausted because it’s so real. #horror #horrorlit #books #specfic #fiction #booksky #reads #bodyhorror

It’s impossible not to hate yourself when you’re raised in a culture that hates itself
