I've been making pate de fruit these last few weeks. So far I have Pear Yuzu and Mirabelle. I think I will make Mulberry next. What create things are you doing/working on?

I texted Nerd and told him I was craving a Croque Monsieur. He asked me what it was and described the French ham and cheese sammich to him. Now he wants one too! 😉

Don't tell anyone but I think I have a little crush on Samin Nosrat. She's beautiful, creative, warm, and friendly.

I'm looking for some scifi, fantasy series to watch. Bonus if it has mystery elements. What shows do you suggest I watch?

I always know I'm gonna like a movie when I get chills from watching the trailer. Same for TV shows too. You... how can you tell you're gonna like a TV show or movie?

I love watching ASMR with ladies being kind to me. Offering tea, providing tips on how to look my best, them sharing how they like to relax. Should I be embarrassed?

My doctor says I'm Vitamin D deficient. She said, If you were a Victorian child we'd say you have rickets. I told her rickets sounds posh. She did not agree.

I stumbled onto Sabrina Carpenter and like that Espresso song. I can't sing it because I don't know the words except for Espresso. Something, something, something... espresso... something, something, something.... espresso...

Story time. An abusive ex found me on FB and told me that they now know Hoodoo and are gonna come after me. 25 yrs ago I cast a mirror spell. Meaning that whatever they wished on me reflected back on them. Go ahead. #CleverConjurer

I woke up late and my plan had been to get to SIFT bake shop early. I waited a while in line and got my standard bakery item- chocolate croissant. It was flaky in all the right spots and chocolatey where it counted. It was worth the wait and long drive.

Okay, New England has the fall and the lobster roll on lock. That said, there are a few ways lobster rolls are presented. I have discovered that I'm a butter and lobster roll kinda person. Bad for my cholesterol but great for my taste buds.

Just link me y'all's current playlist. I'll get my new supply of music that way. :)

My new favorite thing on the clock app is when opera singers refer to a composer's work as a "banger".

Who's a film director or writer you like? Why? I'll go first. Wes Anderson. He directs the actors to show little emotion on their face, but the dialogue does the heavy lifting.

Just so we're clear... The library and librarians are not neutral.

So far California Grrl is holding up. I admit to feeling odd when I discard some of the batch to make room for fresh flour. I may need a few more days to build up my starter. It doesn't have a lot of bubbles yet.

I did it! I finally started my sourdough starter. California Girl is alive! Okay not fully. It's only day 3. But still...go me for doing the thing!

There's a wasp in the library causing a ruckus. Be proud of me not burning this place down or going the way of my character Alex in my novel MISE EN DEATH. #halp #knockedout

Nerd: I wonder why hot water sounds different than cold when it's poured. Me: The hot water is fat. Nerd: (looks it up) How water has more viscosity. Me: Like I said, the water is fatter. Nerd: That's not- Me: Fat Water!!!

I think I figured out how to make a sourdough starter that will taste like the kind I had as a kid growing up in California. The problem is that I'm so afraid of doing it wrong that I haven't started. I hate this feeling. How do y'all psych yourself into doing the thing?

I didn't know that I really needed to see Conan O'Brien doing the Haka this morning. It did not disappoint.

When I was a youth I would collect movie soundtracks. I just found them on Spotify. I'm listening to them and wondering how I didn't know I was queer. Holy New Wave. #Synthesizer #SoulfulLeads

The clock app just started showing me Indigenous cousins. I'm learning steps for the Jingle Dress dances, fry bread recipes, language with context and nuance, history, and more. Sometimes technology isn't the devil!

My supervisor turned down an opportunity for me to have a clipboard when working with museum patrons. He doesn't understand the fact that a gay with a clipboard is us at maximum efficiency!

Just saw SINNERS. What richly made film. I enjoyed the different aspects of it. It gave me hope that my genre splitting stories do have an audience too.

I just fell onto the Hoodoo section of the clock app. As someone who used to teach Hoodoo it's fascinating to see what the youths are doing today. #Rootwork #Rootworkers

I didn't have the energy to make the dough but the guys and I made Shepherd's Pie in a casserole dish. The house smells like I imagine a cottage kitchen smells like. What's for dinner where you're at?

I proactively got my oil changed and it happened because I remembered. This is the first time I didn't have my poor anxious husband tell me the horribleness of what happens to cars with unchanged oil. Please clap. #DidntBlowARod #EngineStillIntact

Public library summer reading programs are often grant funded. When IMLS was cleared out guess which one program is gonna be affected? Library budgets are already lean. I fail to see how libraries and librarians are a part of government overspending. #ImLivid

My husband has suggested that we no longer go to a particular grocery due to their rotisserie chickens all coming with broken bones. It's like Stranger Things is doing the marketing. Vecna Rotisserie Chicken #KindaFreakingMeOut

The fam and I just got back from seeing the Broadway show Stranger Things: The First Shadow. The set design, acting and story were so good. Check it out if you can! #ImmaHaveNightmaresForDays #TheSoundOfCrushingBonesAlwaysFreaksMeOut
