wild apples butter

Canning season, that is! I mean, of course, I did up strawberry jam months ago, but that was just a one-shot deal, out of necessity. By the time September evenings are starting to really feel like fall, I've started picking apples roadside, buyi...

yum vast perfection 40/365: the logical aftermath of strawberry picking

I *was* going to post a "what I've been up to for the past year" kind of post - started it a couple times, actually - and then I realized how pointless that really is, because the one person who's still reading me from a year ago already knows eve...

how did I miss this?

I'm flipping through an old (Summer 2006) issue of knit.1, and I see this. (It's easier to see in the original, but work with me here.) That's my womb! So I read the article, and sure enough: Knitting "with a twist" was on display in January a...
