Fresh figs 🌱 from the garden roasted with goat cheese from the farmers market and topped with walnuts and honey - delicious! This first harvest year is small, but I'm excited for many more years of figs.

Played my first game of Riftbound. It was fun! HOWEVER, I have some gripes about the editorial on the play guide included. Activated teacher mode.

Fifteen years ago @strictlyworse.bsky.social and I tied the knot. Our marriage can get a learners permit. I'm lucky to be both deeply known and deeply loved through so many phases of my life. Happy anniversary to my ride or die! 🥂❤️

For our fifteenth wedding anniversary, we got to see the Tony winning non-binary icon, J. Harrison Ghee, in Hadestown last night. It's a phenomenal show and I got to talk @strictlyworse.bsky.social's ear off about every design detail.
