Greek yogurt with grape spoon sweets, topped with a few pecans and a drizzle of honey.
I had this awesome dessert in Greece a couple years ago. Spoon sweets aren't a thing here, so I had to find out how to make them. Turns out it's easy, so I did it. SO GOOD. #foodsky
Yesterday in the Cotswolds we told JD Vance to get lost
On September 17th in London we will come together to tell Donald Trump the same thing
Spot @everyonehateselon.bsky.social’s Vance meme van 😭😭😭
Breaking: JD Vance just arrived in the Cotswolds, UK, on holiday.
Apparently having this meme on his phone got one tourist banned from entering the US.
So here it is on a huge billboard near where JD's holidaying 👍
📍Cheltenham, Cotswolds, UK

Southern biscuits. Nice and light and fluffy (if not particularly healthy :). See the weird one I always make with the scraps? That's lunch! #foodsky

Made this today - it's the bomb if you like rhubarb. I dialed the sugar back to 3/4 cup and added a little cinnamon. #foodsky

A piece of strawberry rhubarb ricotta cake sitting on a round blue plate.
Four bags of sliced fresh rhubarb packed in quart bags to be frozen.
It's also rhubarb season. Have to buy it now because it's only around for a few weeks and disappears again for a whole 'nother year. I got 4 lbs., made a strawberry rhubarb ricotta cake. Froze the rest for more goodies later! #foodsky

The Pretzel Museum in Erdmannhausern, Germany, has been housed in Emil Huober's original pretzel factory since 2016. Right before the entrance is a sculpture titled "Wheat Ear" by Paul Fuchs, whose double helix represents the pretzel form while the wheat highlights the village's agricultural past. (Matt Wagner/Stars and Stripes)
#QUICKTRIP: How did a pretzel get its shape? 🥨
The origins of the pretzel are as twisted as its signature knot. Each region claims its own explanation.
If you're stationed in Germany, consider a pilgrimage to the Pretzel Museum in Erdmannhausern:

A local owl comes to rest in the church yard on a bitterly cold winter morning. One of those rare & fleeting moments when you just hold your breath, wholly immersed in the prism of your viewfinder.

VP lapdog's ski vacation got a little fractious when thousands of Vermonters objected to his presence. The signs were gold.

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer told leaders gathered Sunday for a summit on the war in Ukraine that they need to step up and continue to support Kyiv and meet a “once in a generation moment” for the security of Europe.

Protesters with colorful signs, including “poutine not Putin,” “Proud Vermonter, ashamed American” and “Less fascism more shrimp.”
A car with a sign that says “Hit a tree”
A dog wearing a sign that says “Dogs against DOGE”
Protests standing in the snow along a road holding colorful signs.
Snapped a few photos at the Waitsfield, VT protest against Vance. Lots of good signs, but “Poutine not Putin” was my favorite.

A black and white ink-style illustration of two chickens perched on a wooden beam against a cloudy, textured background. The chicken on the left is a rooster with a prominent comb and wattles, while the one on the right is a hen with a smaller comb. Both birds have round, plump bodies covered in meticulously detailed feathers, giving them a stylized, almost pear-shaped appearance. Their expressions appear serious, as if engaged in silent conversation. The artwork has a hand-drawn, stippled texture, creating depth and shading, reminiscent of traditional etchings or woodcut prints.
What do you think they’re talking about?
