a triangle lives here

kimbap has been on the mind again, possibly but probably not likely[1] due to kpop demon hunter's opening airplane scene Back when Em and I were single[2] there was a time we were making and devouring kimbap weekly or possibly even more frequent.

happy winter solstice; may your days be happier and brighter

watchin' kpop demon hunters: "Rumi!

I've been knitting socks again, which is great--they're a nice combination of satisfying, easy to Just Go Knit, and highly portable.

on a whim I decided to print this boko camp chest Switch cartridge holder this weekend.

I just realized I never posted these as I meant to; through the magic of backdating, I just did!

We got a huuuge snow over the weekend and then a little more on Monday.

is there a gutsier statement than The Great Gonzo as Charles Dickens and it delivers, too

Sometimes, you're reading a bedtime story, and sometimes your kid goes "what's that??"

to her two aunts: "Do you want to play TWO husband moms and dads!?"

a new game for me is using the "make offer" button on ebay when a listing has it; I find myself going there to find niche things there more and more often[^1] and have been giving myself 10% discounts with it.

When I was making yesterday's country fried steak, I called Gooseberry over and said, "hey check it out, it's just like cooking mama!"

My MIL has two pairs of socks I knit her at the start of this decade.

We don't have much left of the quarter cow we bought last year, but what we do have left is a fair number of cubed steak.

big magnetic storm!!

Goose: "Can you fix my [lego] nutcracker?"

curry curry it nice to cook a curry

one of the fun things about ramen is you can put whatever you want in it.

So in cars and model cars and gundams there is apparently a painting technique known as candy coating.

playing with a lego construction crane (singing): "that's captain hook's hand!

Some friends have been raving about KA's cinnamon roll focaccia, so I've been meaning to give it a go.

I've been thinking, and I've decided the best way to describe Snapdragon's talking is animal crossing sounds[1]...

I bought a lego set the other day.

Snapdragon hs been experimenting with eating more and more: If we're having soup I'll give her a mouthful; she's had a few kinds of cereal.

Goose has been introduced (again?

about the time Martin the Warrior performs oral surgery with his sword on a hedgehog who was sad he could no longer eat pudding

when you search all your pockets and hoodie pockets and jackets and bags trying to find your wallet and then search under the shoe rack and weird hidyspots and under the seats of the car and van and finally find it: yes ha ha ha yes

For at least a week Gooseberry has been hosting semi-nightly "scabes".

Me: "I should probably only give her a few at a time so she doesn't choke, right?"

sometimes I think my camera roll is near 50% pics of curry.

me looking at a texted picture of gooseberry and snapdragon at the local orchard/pumpkin farm: "ahahahaha Goose looks like the all powerful queen of the pumpkins" Em, responding, "She literally declared she was the pumpkin queen" Snap in the bath, using h…

Me: what do you think Elephant Bananza will look like?

I am having fun painting teeny tiny details.

Meanwhile, Gooseberry is starting to sign her name with the first, second, and fifth letters of her name and it is literally lethal to look upon; I have died again just thinking about those cute clunky letters I love them so much

Snap's getting to be a real cheerio fiend; picking them up is half or more of the fun tho.

There's a category of posts I like to make where it's like, "this is an idea/concept/revelation that is turning in my head" and another category of "this specific category is actually probably harmless to post about but I still will not post about it" and…

Sometimes you're quietly spinning a thing in your head for a while going, "hmm, something is missing and it might be this already planned feature but maybe not, hmmm" and then you finally sneak the time to sit down and do the feature you imagine and: oh.…

We pressed cider this weekend.

kamen rider shows are great 'cuz you get to explain plots like, "then he beat a bug in Evil Iron Chef by seasoning his radish with the summer breeze" and it is completely accurate and fully encapsulates what kaken rider is while doing nothing to actually…

She announced, carrying an armful of stuffed animals

As much as Gooseberry loves "real" toys (and especially the novelty of new ones) she is also and has always been the king of "anything is a toy".

Mr Rogers is always Good and Excellent.

In the middle of me singing her a bedtime song: Goose: "pause!!"

*me after knocking a bag of apples out of the fridge and watching them tumble everywhere*: "Don't worry, it was just an appleanche You know that vibrating excitement and wonder when you set up a tent or blanket fort in your living room?

Oh!!!
