Quilting

I just got back from the local quilt show. My wife volunteered me to take pictures, she's the VP of the guild. At the house she's the Pres.

I know there are a few quilting enthusiasts on Mastodon, so here you go. Here's one of my wife's quilts, she and I are both retired soldiers so ...

Sure, commiting a Freudian slip is embarrassing, but I'll take it any day over a malapriapism.

#Today I’m on a serious roll. I finished my granddaughter’s Birthday cake, 3 layers with homemade chocolate icing (not the crap from the store) the inside is vanilla but colored it teal, all done by 9:30! Yay me. And no caffeine! Now for my #Friday workout and this afternoon cook a great Italian meal for my Gia. It’s a cold day 26deg F (-3 C) in the woodlands of #MO and not going to warm up much the whole wkd. Enjoy your TGIF.
I better get moving. Be kind always, it’s contagious.

One small step. This morning, had conversation w my 15yr old twin sons about trans kids at their school. I asked if they knew of them. We talked about how the trans community is under siege right now w propaganda. One son turned to me and said, β€œyou don’t have to worry Mom, we are allies”, to which my other son agreed.

I do think small conversations like this can make a difference.

Uhhh Ohhh 😲

You might recall that Tuesday, I posted a photo of a sparrow who was staring me down. It looks like it's had enoughπŸ˜‚. Is it just me or does this chipping sparrow look kind of tough.

The Ukrainian edition of #Elle Magazine has honoured the women fighting for #Ukraine on its upcoming cover.

Calling something β€œwoke” is just a way to avoid proposing real solutions or doing anything to actually fix problems.

Racism? It’s those β€œwoke” schools and colleges!
Bank failures? β€œWoke” board policies!
Oppression of LGBTQs? It’s β€œwoke” culture’s fault!

Stay woke, friends.

#FollowBackFriday. Yay!

I was a bit apprehensive about signing up to #Mastodon but I shouldn't have worried. It's like a breath of fresh air to be surrounded by pleasant and positive people on here.

I'm a fairly atypical Granny, living in #Scotland, and with an #Iceland photography obsession. Bout ye?

Reynisdrangar sea stacks off the southern coast of #Iceland at VΓ­k Γ­ MΓ½rdal. Although the sea looks dark and foreboding, it's actually very clear water but the sand beneath is black.

Today I finally told my kids that St Patrick isn't real, and it's been me putting the snakes under their pillows all these years.

I love #MonsterPutin...Sadly not even #Russian Propaganda media news can make me say that without puking on the middle of typing it.

Russia today just followed me, should i got worried about living in a 5th floor?πŸ˜‚

I'm hiding.

This very red northern cardinal is in a crepe myrtle tree near my back fence. Fortunately, it's up high so the fence isn't in the picture.

"The cardinal is a popular motif on many bird-themed decorations, holiday cards, and ornaments. It even features as a main character in a popular video game-turned-movie. The species' eye-catching plumage and wide distribution also helped land the Northern Cardinal the title of β€œmost popular state bird,” since the following seven states declare it the official bird (the most for any species): Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, North Carolina, Ohio, Virginia, and West Virginia. It's also a popular sports mascot, from Missouri (the St. Louis professional baseball team) to Arizona (professional football team), and at countless colleges and high schools." - abcbirds.org
