Antifascist, anti-covid, anarchist, AuDHD. Queer and non-binary, she/they. A country house with too much going on: 3 adults and a kid, a garden and orchard, a donkey and a mare, chickens, house rabbits and guinea pigs and even a cat too. Living at the tip of the Kitsap Peninsula in the PNW, thank you to the Suquamish people who lived here before us.

A bush lot would be “I’m buying land” or “I’m buying acreage.” Thank you, cool difference!

nostr:npub13ruqn3wt7y3kwssdfdwfgt9fuy8p4ge4tf3quxg8hwvnlyjc57wq0t67kn you’re gonna have so many tasty little stinkers! Last year I planted three in a bed and harvested like fifty. This year I’m using fabric pots to grow two roots! Mine are gorgeously tall too.

nostr:npub1l6v7tsve90dd9cq7q5ej0ajvttd5fj4g7gtv047s2phlk74tlx3sy86ylr so kind! Our great hunter Nightlight usually eats hers, but sometimes she’ll bring a trophy in and stretch out beside it 🥴

I’m pretty sure this is a female “Fernald cuckoo” #bumblebee and I think she’s just grooming herself. I watched for several minutes before slowly approaching with a stick, and she stopped immediately - she wasn’t trapped or in distress.

There were several identical, smaller male bees bedding down for the night in some of the other #sunflowers.

If I was local, I’d door-drop you some treats. Wish I could help!

Hi #BloomScrolling! GM from the front porch #flowers. One of my Etsy #succulents is still working on its amazing flower spike. The edible #violas are bouncing back from being heavily grazed by the chickens. And I carried a potted #dahlia over for some new color.

I'm going to be fitting a new pattern, the Whisper boyshorts by Sinclair patterns. It usually takes 2-3 toiles to get undies right but they only take 30-60min to make, so I should be able to get at least one pair ready for wear by the end of the weekend

I’m planning on finishing a sun hat for me and sewing a gift garden tote for a friend.
