Been harvesting these madrone fruits and freezing them. Yes, you can eat them (squishy and red is best). I put them in smoothies in place of a banana. They are native to California.

Today’s Mountain Goats song is the unrecorded, and unperformed “Wizard Level”, which I tried to sing in my head using all my years of listening. THIS YEAR is sitting next to my bed for a nightly reading as if it were a bible. Thank you @themountaingoats.bsky.social for so much joy and mystery.

Have a sewing machine? GET THE MANUAL. I have 4 nearly identical Sears Kenmores from the 70s, and just assumed they all worked the same way. Over a year after getting one, I just found out it has a drop-feed selection, just in a place I didn't expect. I just danced around my studio.
