@Purpsy: yeah, it is about that time, isn't it?
I had some quiche this morning but I should probably find some lunch soon too...

@Wildfire: Yep feels like today is going kind of fast.
Any delicious food in mind? Might eat bagels or instant noodles at this point...

    @Purpsy: no they're from the new Orb item Master Gourd Gatherer!


    @Wildfire: I had Greek salad + whole wheat pitta, yummy! I squeezed lemon juice over it hence the pip. I still have toothache now!!
    Any progress is good progress! That's my motto anyway.
    Yeah I made a little mat/rug in that style a few years ago. I'm not a particularly crafty person but it was a nice relaxing thing to do.

@Purpsy: Today is feeling kind of weird to me in terms of it going fast or slow, actually. It seems like it should be both earlier and later than it is ...

Actually, no, I don't have any delicious food in mind at the moment. I'm feeling lazy today and will reserve my cooking for dinner tonight (chicken mango burritos with corn on the cob)



@sunny: oh! I had some Greek salad last night actually. There's something really yummy about the combination of things in that salad! I'm sorry that your tooth still hurts from the pip - you must have caught it just "right" :(

Yes, I've started doing braided rugs during my "downtime" - watching tv, or when I'm just too tired or unfocused to do something else. I've made two rugs now - a tiny little thing and a larger one (about 4 feet x 3 feet) and am getting ready to start another one. I like having something to do with my hands when I'm otherwise sitting still. I thought I'd try that inter-weaving/braiding style, because the sewing part can get tedious, but now I'm not so sure...

    @Wildfire: It is yummy isn’t it? One of my favourite types of salad. I got the ingredients for it last week so I was kinda sceptical about whether they’d still be good, but they were fine! Except for the lemon that fought back lol.
    Oh wow,, that is a large rug, congrats! What colours is it? What colours do you think you will use for your next project?

-returns after a quick run to the grocery store. again.-

@sunny: It really is a wonderful salad! <3 I'm glad the ingredients were still good and you had a good lunch... except for the lemon XD
Thanks - the rug took a really long time to make - a surprising number of hours went in to it. I don't have a finished photo of it, or I'd share, but it's a lovely teal and gray with some purple and white combination... maybe I have a photo of it mid-process...

@Lina: Hi Lina. How are you today?

    @Wildfire: it sounds like a pretty rug! Teal and grey work really well together imo.

@sunny: Yeah, it came out lovely, tbh. So much so that my mom "stole" it before I was even done with it! XD


It's not a great photo and it's not sewn together here - just laid out so I could get a better sense of what it was looking like, but it will give you an idea

    @Wildfire: oooo that’s really nice! Kudos for making something so lovely, and even more so that your mom had to take it lol. Thanks for the pic, it’s so pretty!

@sunny: Thank you Sunny. I was happy with the way it came out, but now I'm looking to do another - amid my various other projects. I'm beginning to think this stuff is slightly addictive... XD

    @Wildfire: I’m not a particularly crafty person, but when I get started with something I really do find it addictive. It’s been a while since I did a project, any kind of project really. The only crafty thing I do is write. I wish I was more hands-on with crafts, sometimes :(

@sunny: I suspect the writing you do is more of an Art than a Craft... to me, there's a distinction (that is, admittedly, hard to define sometimes). For me, I'm a fine artist by trade and education, but I love just fiddling with things with my hands and seem to always be doing something -or wishing I was!- when I'm not "working seriously", so braiding things while I'm chilling is usually a good combination. If you want to get more hands-on crafty, there are a ton of options available - you'd just have to find one that interests you. :3

I learned at work today that we are perfectly willing to put out bomb recipes. I came across the Anarchist's Cookbook today.
The only reason it wasn't put out is because it had water damage.
