✨ she's finished ✨ Clem is modeling for me, because it is Not Sweater Weather. I need to find an excuse to wear it somewhere anyways, maybe a museum or the big walk in fridge at costco. #knitting #ishnanasweater

it's finally the part of the year where I can just eat hummus and bread and cucumbers for lunch and it's perfect. so long soup weather, see you in a couple months

the computer is highly contested territory because there's only enough space for one of them to dangle their head over the fans and get blasted by the hot air. so they take turns, mostly. #catsofmastodon

cat that wants what I'm eating vs cat that can't believe I'm eating strawberries and rhubarb #catsofmastodon

I aspire to be as unbothered as the man at costco, on a busy sunday, buying a hat. just a hat. I don't even know why he got a cart for one (1) hat.

heck yeah it's 60% of a sweater just in time for #wipwednesday ! I'm hoping that the "almost finished" momentum can carry me through the sleeves, those are always the most boring part. #knitting #ishnanasweater

I'm having a really exciting and fun conversation with Rosie today. I say "get off my desk" and then I pick her up and put her back on the ground. she responds by getting back on the desk and biting a random object. we have been doing this for ten minutes now. she is intentionally not getting […]

[🌿 💭 US Pol] a couple weeks ago I found a bottle of my favorite gin sitting next to the water heater (how??? the gnomes???) and I put it in the freezer to get all frosty and when It happens (you know what It is. It will be on the front page.) I'm gonna enjoy my Bummer & Lazarus. I think we […]

BART has their short story dispenser machine out today and I picked one up only to be memed on by a 10 year old. well played, Virak. good to see the kids are all right.

I need to take my ancient laptop to a thing tomorrow and I forgot that I had a big WEED sticker on it. so I fixed it.

🎉🎉🎉 finished the first chart repeat, with slightly less than 100 more rows to go before armholes happen. my body is not thrilled with my decision to knit a cabled sweater on 3mm needles but it's hard to argue with the results. it'll block out real pretty. ✨ #knitting #ishnanasweater

the temperature has dropped dramatically and in response, Rosie has deployed her fluff. she was much less poofy last week. #catsofmastodon

they would like to wish you a warm and cozy #caturday #catsofmastodon

it's birthday/easter season, which of course means I get to bake a cake! This is lemon and apricot cake and it smells divine, can't wait to taste it! #baking

#caturday snoozing #catsofmastodon

my robot vacuum got into my weaving room today (it is not supposed to go in there because it likes to eat yarn, with disastrous results) and now it is making the most depressed noises I've ever heard it make buddy I tried to warn you

this starts on friday! I'm on jury duty this week and so looking forward to getting through it and celebrating 🎉 #bayareayarncrawl #weaving

✨ exciting news! 🎉 these pieces will be on display for the #bayareayarncrawl as part of an art show in Martinez. if you're in the area, come see them :) #weaving

framing can be so powerful. heck yeah. #weaving

RE: https://toots.ravenoak.dev/@rebecca/116145216532888291 I very rarely have the "if I saw this somewhere else I'd get excited" response to my work but damn. If I saw these at a yarn shop I'd start asking questions.

next row of crayons completed 🎉 thinking maybe teal and purple for the next one, or teal and yellow? hmm #weaving

winter is almost over, thank goodness, and my brain is coming out of its hibernation. I'm happy to be back at the loom. This is a mini-quilt, based on a big quilt I've had since I was a little kid. It's (hopefully) going to be on display for the bay area […] [Original post on toots.ravenoak.dev]

99% of living with a cat is either holding something open for them while they stare at you like you're dumb or saying "Excuse Me" in an increasingly irritated tone for example: I tried to get pearl to go under the covers where it is warm and cozy and comfortable but instead she is sitting on my […]

hi pearl 😻 #catsofmastodon #caturday

ok ok we get it jesus. calm down girl

"why are californians like this?" because this is what a random monday in february looks like

#spinning class is going well even with the thumb out of commission. assembling my little scrapbook is the hard part, but I can tidy it up at home. #redalderfiberarts

more samples from today. lots of fun color theory, but I am excited to get back to my drum carder because I am too clumsy for a whole day of hand carding. #redalderfiberarts

saturdays are for flopping #caturday #catsofmastodon

well I don't want to spend my friday night reading emails from the grossest motherfuckers on the planet time to close my browser. I appreciate that people need to talk about Epstein but I really do not need to read the details. I already feel like I need a shower.

the cat weather report says it's snuggle season #catsofmastodon

she can be so polite #caturday #catsofmastodon

piggy got BANK shaped like a TANK. yomamama feet STANK. piggy got BANK

today's #baking project: refill the cookie tin peeling pistachios is some bullshit but grinding fresh pistachio flour meant I could throw in cardamom and rose petals. tres fancy. the little ones are just pistachio, the big ones have pistachio around the […] [Original post on toots.ravenoak.dev]

the giraffes are pretty today #photography

met some unexpected mushroom friends on my morning walk

today in weird marketing emails: is the vet bodyshaming my cat? what am I supposed to take away from this? If Rosie did make new years resolutions they would be TUNA NOW EAT TUNA EVERY DAY TUNA TUNA HUMAN TUNA EAT TUNA TUNA NOW NOW HUMAN EAT TUNA

phew, no cracks this time. 300° for 12 minutes in the exact center of the oven is the magic timing these have mocha shells & salty hazelnut cream tea filling #baking #macarons

I've been watching Dark, the netflix show from like 2019 (I think I tried watching it when it came out but there's a lot of triggering content, I'm in a better headspace now) it's thinky sci-fi, time travel stuff always is, but on a totally different level I […] [Original post on hachyderm.io]

why are these so popular is it a e s t h e t i c or is it just conspicuous capitalism 🤔 (spoilers! they're the same thing!)

cat what are you doing #catsofmastodon

happy tucked in kitty season to all who celebrate #catsofmastodon

haha oh wow. that's too many cookies. what have I done. #yule #baking
