After today, I am at my limit with the world. I don't understand it. I don't want to talk. I don't want to hear. I want to live in the woods and sell eggs and bread at the farmer's market.

Nyx Black Butter Gloss is notably more pigmented than I was expecting but I'm never above a black lip. (P.S. wtf is this eye color)

Terminology: Why We Call It "Grafting" Instead of That Other Name At Digits & Threads we avoid using craft terms that cause harm, which is why we call it grafting, not "Kitchener stitch."

This article is now two years old. Have you seen it?

I have been using grafting since I read this. I believe words have power.

Turning 29 brought the urge to purchase a Nintendo DS and finish all the games I never did as a kid.

After many years of searching, I have found my replacement for the original Lorac Pro Palette. Fingers crossed the colors are true ๐Ÿคž Only critique so far is the dark brown being the most sparkly.

I drove through the backwoods today. The road was winding and the trees were so tall and lush that they blocked out the sky. The drizzling rain ceased as nature came in close for a hug.

Driving 1.5 hrs to work is NOT IT. Excuse me while I sink to wherever the remote hides in the couch.

We are have updated our research into which garden plants attract the most pollinators. Our original research included 5 years of data. We then moved house so this is now 9 years of data over 2 different locations.

Gotta love when trying to make food (after not wanting food all day) and it absolutely fails. I have fought tooth and nail to not be a depresso espresso today and I'm giving up now.

Please stop calling it Kitchener stitch. He didn't invent it and the man was a monster. Like, invented the concentration camp kind of monster (Boer War). The technique existed before him and it had a perfectly good name before: grafting.
