Happy Thanksgiving, Bluesky pals!

Stills from Garfield in 1989.

Y'all, I can't get over how much she's grown in just two months. She was only as big as my hand when I found her.

Today's Thanksgiving adjacent convection oven concoction: Stuffing with ambrosia apples, cranberries, celery, and sage baked with whole wheat bread.

I usually save the weirder stuff for my art modeling account @ladylonglimbs.bsky.social , but since it's crochet, lookie what I freehanded today. 🥰

You can still buy plain potato chips. 😂

Here's a good one with minimal ingredients.:

I went for a different angle hoping for a more appealing photo, and all I got was a reminder that I am unmatched at slicing unequal portions. 💪🏻

This might look like poo in a pie pan, but this date pie is one of the best desserts I've ever made. I feel like I'm on a redemption arc after the pecan pie was still completely liquid under the burnt surface a day later.

I hit major burnout with crochet while working on my tapestry, but when I come back to it, I'd like to make some ACNH amigurumi.

If I've learned anything from art modeling, it's that good lighting can improve anything. Does it change the fact that the pie is burnt on top? No, but it sure it prettier here in all its imperfect glory.

While I was rotating the pecan pie, Gremmy Grub helped my partner decorate a tree. This'll be the first tree I've had in my whole adult life because cats. 😂 We have a high mantel now to put it on, so nobody will be eating plastic branches or bulbs. (Tippy LOVES bulbs.)

Only having a convection oven to bake with is fun. Just look at that uneven bake. 😂 But hey, for my first ever pecan pie, I'm not too bummed about it. I think it'll be tasty under the surface. 🤞🏻

This image is making the rounds on a few Facebook pages I follow, and I was so sad to find out that it's not made by a human. Even illustration-like images created by computers are becoming difficult to separate from art.

Took my first stab at corn pudding. Since sweet corn is sweet enough on its own, I decided to only add a light dusting of sugar to the top. It made for more of a breakfast style casserole, but I'm not unhappy with it. I think some melted cheese over a scoop would be perfect.

Hey gang, don't roast your pecans in honey in a convection over at 350 for 10 minutes. My house has smelled like char since 6am.

What perfect album came out the year you turned 16?

This was extremely difficult because Franz Ferdinand, Editors, Metric, Bloc Party, Wolf Parade, and so many others released great albums that year, but I have to go with the only Deathcab album I own because What Sarah Said can still make me cry.

Switched my system setting to 日本語 after learning that Animal Crossing has furigana to help with kanji pronunciation. How many hours (minutes??) do you give this novice before I switch back to English?
