As soon as I can! :)

No, I'm sorry, I haven't tried selling prints online. I've never set anything like that up before- but it's certainly not a bad idea. Regardless, I'm so glad you like it!

Hmm... I'm not sure! It always reminds me of stained glass, or like colour-block minimalism.

I found this at a thrift store a few years ago and I've struggled to identify any of the symbols. I've tried online symbol databases, I think I tried reverse image searching, and I've tried just scrolling endless "fish" symbols to no avail. It's handmade and uses poly-fabrics, so it's certainly not an antique (or at least not a really old antique).

I love it. I think it looks really cool. I don't want to hang it up, though, if it has meaningful and/or religious meaning that would make that inappropriate.

Can anyone toss a theory my way? Is this religious imagery? Will it curse my descendants? Is this someone's Saturday afternoon craft, and they had no foresight that their fun "designs" would torture the back of my brain for years?

Saw a panel discussion where the devs called it "kuhd". I refuse to surrender. It will always be caved of "could" in my heart ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ.

I would think of it as just a terra-cotta pot- something to bake and steam whatever your imagination can come up with! :) I feel like it would do a mean potato and onion dish...

Which was promptly smothered in cilantro as god intended.

Second try at making limoncello; the peels were infused for 8 weeks in a locally distilled 45% gin. Used a coffee filter to filter out any impurities, and I think I trapped too much of the oils... leading to a crystal-clear liqueur, rather than the cloudy-neon-yellow I was going for. Oh well. Next time I'll get actual 180-proof grain alcohol and will avoid paper filters. I'll also use less simple syrup. Boy howdy... lessons have been learned.

Decided to try using those leftover alcohol-soaked peels and making them into something useful... Decided on dried lemon peel powder. I wonder if it will still be 'boozy'? It smells glorious, anyway.

(This finished limoncello is roughly 20%ABV, though we like to mix it with soda because it's so. stinkin. sweet.)

If you're in the US or Canada, they've already been cleaned! :)

Well, the little "seeds" on the outside are nuts by def. The red fleshy part is an accessory fruit.

They're from all over- for years I kept and reused all my old pickle, sauce, and jam jars to accommodate the collection as it grew (in addition to a bunch of thrifted mason jars). Glass feels easier to keep tidy and to find what I need.

There are still a handful I've never tried (hwentia, dundicut, black lemons, pomegranate peels, sorowisa...) but I like to experiment whenever I can. Some of my favorite foods to make are Indian dishes like chicken korma or goan-style pork vindaloo, which both use many spices.

Separated all the chilis/pepper varieties onto the top, and moved all the salts to the cupboard to the right, since those two categories took too much space. Final count was 109. Phew.

Something a little different than my usual?

A gift for my partner! It's not as creepy and weird as I'd intended it to be, but I like it.

My old person trait is that no one is allowed to be mad at me for not answering a random phone call. Sometimes it's ok to leave your phone in the other room while watching a movie, or (gasp!) At home while you're out gardening.
