Look what my mom made me 😭

It took almost a year and something like 200,000 stitches. And she made it 3D, with a spine and "pages."

I'm in such awe. One of the most special things I've ever been given.

Photo of Sarah, blocked out mostly by a very large 3D crossstitched book. It's Sarah's debut, Mrs. Nash's Ashes, and the details are impeccable. A close up of the pigeon on the cover to show that it is crossstitched. A side shot to show that it's 3D like a real book, with string glued to look like the book's pages.

Wishing you a February full of sunbeams hitting you just right so that you feel soft and warm but look just a little menacing 💕

Lmao imagine being like "I'm finding it really hard to even get out of bed in the morning" and the telehealth screen mocks you with 😭😭😭😭 emojis popping up around your therapist.
Photo of a pop up on a telehealth platform reading: "apple devices may show emojis during video calls. Reactions, a new feature from Apple, is currently turned on by default and may show emojis during video calls based on perceived gestures by video participants. This feature is not part of simple practice telehealth and simple practice does not have control over these settings."

When we were moving from DC in 2020, I posted on our local listserv asking if any neighbors with green thumbs wanted to adopt two plants I'd nearly killed. A woman I didn't know emailed saying she'd take them. Now every year or so she emails me an update on how they're doing 😭
Email saying: "You might not remember me, but hopefully you remember your plants. You kindly gave them to me when you were leaving Glover Park and I said it would take good care of them. I just had to take pictures and send them to you because this is the first time that the Christmas cactus has ever bloomed And it’s been four years! I think putting this beauty outside all summer long really helped it to get healthier and here’s the result. The other one has been happy all along. I also moved out of Glover Park, selling my house in April 2023 and now live [redacted] just on the other side of [redacted]. It’s a great apartment and I think I moved just in time as it was pretty hard to pack up and do it all. I hope you and your family are doing well. Happy Hanukkah. Regards, J."

Not at high altitude. It's usually when it's being cooked in something other than plain water. Tonight I tried to make a recipe from Ruby Tandoh's cookbook and it was still not cooked through after like 35 minutes even though there was a ton of moisture.

My favorite sandwich from a local cafe: turkey, cheddar, bacon, avocado, sprouts, tomato, mayo on wheat toast. It's perfect.
