Stone cold truth

This is Lazlo the gargoyle enjoying the sunset. Lazlo has been watching over us for 30 years now. We couldn't ask for a better protector.

I DO NOT WANT TO 'CHAT WITH MY FILES'

Even if you can't come to any of these events, please share them! Independent bookstores are sticking their necks out to bring me to these cities, and I want them rewarded with high attendance and lots of book sales. Help me do nice things for booksellers!! They deserve it!!

Tostadas for dinner tonight. 🍜🍽️🌮

Just Zeus being Zeus. 💜

I launched an indie webcomic hosting platform several months ago that offered a free and a $4/mo paid plan. This was purely to cover the cost of the infrastructure. But in seeing it grow, I'm no longer worried about the cost. So yeah Webcomic Studio is now free. webcomic.studio

First orzo and chickpea salad of the year. I love this stuff so much. Perfect side dish for many things, but also amazing on its own.

Don't know why, but I've been in a baking mode lately. Here's some banana bread, baked in a square pan instead of a loaf pan, which probably makes it more of a snack cake? Anyway, it's delicious. I threw some chocolate chunks in, because why not? 🍜🍽️

If you need to go somewhere and not spend any money, please visit your local library. Library crawls are awesome. Every library is its own little world.

Dinner was quick, easy, and delicious for a gorgeously sunny May Day. Definitely making a note to make these shrimp rolls again once the heat of summer hits. 🍽️🍜

I believe this is called adding insult to injury. 👗 #fakepocketfauxpas

Amazed at how many people have a favourite fruit! I have favourites for specific applications, naturally, but overall If it's in season and peak ripeness, I probably love it. Including the plums that were in the icebox, which you were probably saving—

This Is Just To Say I have turned off the AI features that were in the update and which you were probably hoping to monetize Fuck you they were stupid so unnecessary and so annoying

Lunch from the freezer stash - cheeseburger stuffed buns. I use regular pizza dough for these, either 4 or 6 per "pizza". This is one of a 4 batch. The 6s are obvs smaller, better as a snack but the 4s are a nice small lunch. 🍜🍽️🍔🍞

My new book will be released on Thursday 30th April ~ please share!

Welp, now I’m hungry. Magnificence. I never make them savory, but now I’m thinking I should give it a try for dinner one night.

Roast beef & Grand Noir (blue cheese from Germany) dutch baby with green onions & horseradish for breakfast this morning. 🍜🍽️ 🍳

The two genders: supermodel and superhero

Dramatic lighting for breakfast today 🍽️🍜🍞🥚

I had a package of glacé cherries leftover from Christmas baking that needed using up, so I took a stab at Mary Berry's cherry cake from #GBBO series 5.

Totally off-topic, but did y'all the know the Free State of Florida's citrus industry is basically dead?? This is quite a story: slate.com/business/202...

Greetings, new followers and old! Here is Iggy, who has decided that my foot is a pillow.

I don't have a lot of experience making focaccia, but this looks fairly encouraging. 🍽️🍜🍞

We've been busy. Kori-Mex bibimbap with minced beef mole. Over rice and topped with an egg yolk, and six banchans: salsa, kimchi, avocado, mushroom, cucumber and nopales. Photos taken moments before stirring it together. So good. @riverofcrows.bsky.social 🍽️🍳

Love El Yucateco, but never even heard of this one! Not sure how I'm going to deploy it yet, but it's probably going to be pretty cool. 🍜

I'd almost always choose a madeleine over a macaron. Cannelés feel overhyped, I've never had one live up to expectations. As mentioned before, I will almost always choose the lemon tart. What's your pâtisserie pick, and what would you leave on the plate? 🍰 #Foodsky

Paint me like one of your French kitties. This is one of the two I am kitten-sitting this weekend. 😻

That's a hell no from me, dawg 🍜

Restaurants and cafés here never have televisions. Some pubs do but only to show sports or they're off. I find the idea of news in a pub repellent. People deserve time free from the news.

CNN already starting the rehabilitation program, huh

Can I talk about salads for a sec? 🍜🍽️

cognitive reframing: I am putting ice cream in my coffee -> I am out of milk because I am disorganized -> negative affect I am putting ice cream in my coffee -> I am making affogato, a sophisticated italian dessert -> positive affect

The world sucks, if you need something to read that is just magic, dragons, teenagers, bad decisions, and one sassy talking bird, all wrapped in Rumiko Takahashi's comedy style, may I suggest our webcomic? sidequested.com And if you like it, go for the book!

This was my first Eastercon art show. I am humbled by the lovely things people have said to me about my art this weekend and delighted that so many works have found their way to loving homes. 🥳🥰 (Watch to see the secret UV layer!) #art #spaceart #octopusart

Leftovers from Easter dessert held up pretty well! 🍜🍽️

My response to the patriarchy. Keep grinding. Get stronger. Support women getting stronger in whatever capacity that means to them.

We'll have company at dinner, so I made some gougères with the Red Leicester that I impulse-bought last week. A few little fresh thyme leaves, too, & a sprinkling of cayenne which turned out to be indetectable. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Now to leave them be until guest arrival...

Breakfast blintzes ☕🍜🍽️

Made some more “No Longer Weeping Willow Tree” pendants. Just listed. Surly.etsy.com

Breakfast! We won't eat all of these today, but the leftovers will be stuffed with cream cheese and apricot jam and fried, then topped with macerated strawberries for breakfast on Sunday. 🍜🍽️

I'm happy to share that my oil painting "Wowkwis" will be included in this year's Newmarket Juried Art Show. The show runs from April 14-25 at the Old Town Hall, Newmarket, Ontario. There's a reception Thursday April 16th from 7-9pm, free to the public. Hope to see you there if you're local!

I had to renew my license plate and pay for some of my meds today. I don’t have enough to make rent this week. Last week’s flat tire and vet visit hit me hard. I’ll draw a digital doodle for anyone who donates $20 or more. Thanks ♥️ Venmo: selkiesienna PayPal: [email protected]

In addition to a custom doodle, people that donate can get large file pdfs (clearer at large sizes than jpeg) of one of my old digital drawings for their own use! Examples below 🩵
