i've had two people in the past week tell me my public speaking has become much more professional and relaxed.
One who first saw me in 2022 and thought I was new to it then (started in 2018 actually!) But needless to say.. nice to hear!! Old Line Plate, now with 30% less "um".

i'm going to take some indulgent relaxing time this weekend to unplug and completely NOT think about how much the people in charge of this country loathe women, and how even if trump wasn't in the emails we'd all assume it was by chance because he very openly hates women, yet somehow its not enough

whenever I see someone hate on canned pumpkin just because it is like, butternut squash and not pumpkin, I think "there is a person who values authenticity over flavor." which is cool for them but I'll pass on their pies

I planned this to be my last year of selling books and crafts at markets. I’m enrolled in one last market where I usually do well and it funds months of my work.
