my fellow sewing divas will understand: after nearly a decade i /finally/ found a tension setting for my serger that works for 90% of what i make, and i feel like i've elevated to the next level of stitch witchery

a piece of one of the bags I'm working on showing off a flat, even, consistent serger seam

i wanted to figure out a use for some leftover plain pulled pork in the freezer from labor day, and Dracula showed up with the inspiration πŸ˜† πŸ“· pork paprikash with roasted cabbage and homemade spaetzle (egg noodles / dumplings)

a bowl plate filled with Hungarian creamy stewed pork, peppered buttered homemade noodles, lightly browned purple and green cabbage, and a dollop of sour cream

🎢 i used tooooo much fabric softener on my duvet 🎢 🎢 it smells like my head is insiiiiiide the downy bottle 🎢 🎢 but whoooo wants to rewash freshly washed bedding 🎢 🎢 ooooo, not i 🎢

bath & body works sent me a vampire blood candle that was missing 2 wicks, and their customer service process is now an ai chatbot. exclusively. zero proof required. it literally showed me a checklist of my entire order and was like "which do you want new ones of?" πŸ‘€ if only i was thievious...

my internet has been painfully slow this week so i haven't been able to post my labor day pics, but we went to a family bbq and i made an array of delicious thangs 🍫πŸ₯₯πŸ₯’

minnesota i am (was) in yousome of the sweets i made for the day, normal and salted caramels, Twix bites (made with homemade caramel filling), Mounds bar cups, and pumpkin bars with cream cheese frostingminnesota sushi anyoneee (ham pickle rollups are IT)

it's rare i make "midwestern salads", but i think this is one of the few that holds up πŸ‘Œ i understand jello isn't for everyone, but picture for me the sweet-tart of the fruit topping, the creamy yet tangy cheesecake filling, and the pretzel crust's salty, crispy contrast πŸ“πŸ‘ πŸ“· pretzel salad πŸ₯¨

a bar dessert on a scalloped dessert plate! the dessert had a craggy pretzel base, a cheesecakey center layer, and a bright pink-red strawberry jello top layer that's dotted with delicious in-season peaches
