- March Around the World movie challenge!Throughout March I played along with this Letterboxd movie challenge called March Around the World, and I got really into it! If you followed my instagram stories you saw as I posted each one I watched… The challenge was to watch 30 movies from 30 different countries in March butContinue reading “March Around the World movie challenge!”

- My Improvised Cable-Yoke SweaterHow about some knitting content on this blog?! I started knitting this sweater in summer 2020, with plans for it to be my around-and-around in plain stockinette movie theater sweater when I started going to movies again, once the bottom edging was done. And then I originally had a vagueContinue reading “My Improvised Cable-Yoke Sweater”
- 2023 Favorite Movies!It’s time! I’ve finalized my 2023 movies list. I wanted to see as many 2023 releases as possibly possible before putting a cap on the list, so I kept watching them through the end of last week and then I messed with the order a bit more and called itContinue reading “2023 Favorite Movies!”
- My 2023 wrap up… making & doingI’ve thought of 2023 as Senior Year of the pandemic. Not because there’s any graduation or ending in sight, just because it was the fourth year, and I feel like we’ve all grown and changed so much since 2020, or Freshman Year. 2023 was a bit rough—it’s the year IContinue reading “My 2023 wrap up… making & doing”
- My Favorite Movies of 2022… plus movies in 2020 and beyondI initially wrote a massively long post about my love of movies over the last several years, with multiple favorites lists, and then I realized that was ridiculous and I needed to at least split it into two parts. So, my previous movies post became part one, which was kindContinue reading “My Favorite Movies of 2022… plus movies in 2020 and beyond”
- Moviiiiies! My off-and-on life obsession, and my faves of the 2010s listI’ve always loved movies, always always, but I’ve also kind of fluctuated with how big a part of my life movies are. My whole family was always big into movies… in fact, my brothers loved horror movies from an age way too young to actually watch them! They just lovedContinue reading “Moviiiiies! My off-and-on life obsession, and my faves of the 2010s list”
- Pizzzzzza!Around the end of 2021 or maybe the beginning of 2022 I think I saw a video or something on social media where someone made a pizza using a cast iron pan. I thought, hey I recently got a 12″ cast iron pan, I’ll get a pizza dough at TraderContinue reading “Pizzzzzza!”
- Blogs are back, right?I have no idea, but I miss mine, so I’m bringing it back. New name (sort of) & domain for the new decade, but the old posts are all still in the archive and searchable, all the way back to 2007. When I started the blog back then, it wasContinue reading “Blogs are back, right?”
- It’s Me Made May and I am Ready! (Or, my first full year as a garment sewist)Oh hi blog! Since I only pop in here once in awhile, I’m going to start with a little life catch-up, then I’ll get on to garment sewing! Wait but FIRST, I have been blogging a little bit, for my work! I did a post for my work blog thatContinue reading “It’s Me Made May and I am Ready! (Or, my first full year as a garment sewist)”
- Ch ch ch ch changes…Ohmygosh hi! I’m thinking about blogging again! My life has changed so much over the last few years, and at this point there are basically two paths this old blog could go down… it could just stop, and be nothing but an archive of past posts, or I could tryContinue reading “Ch ch ch ch changes…”
- leethal recycled yarn!I’m selling skeins of yarn again! They are recycled yarns, which I’ve unraveled very carefully (minimal knots, usually 1 per skein), washed well, and sometimes spun together. There are plain skeins, which are all wool or wool blends — the white one has some camel hair and the grey hasContinue reading “leethal recycled yarn!”
