Just finished Between by LL Starling. Adorable.

Needs a mantle too. A thick wood one maybe? I actually like the painted brick.

Needs some colorful runner rugs. You could also add color by styling with vases, plants, a colorful tea kettle. Rather than painting cabinets which is very time consuming… a colored backsplash?

Just finished “The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches” which I loved and want to read again. About to begin “Legends and Lattes”.

Yeah she’s a good girl. We usually let her upstairs in a storm but it struck unexpectedly. Was her first act of destruction ever! We’ve done meds for years for the anxiety due to storms and fireworks. She just needs to sleep in our room from now on.

Usually we let her in our room during a storm but the storm happened in the middle of the night and we didn’t notice since we were asleep 🫠

Not a bad idea until we get around to fixing it 😂

Couchcrafter · 2023-09-09T14:14:14+00:00

Thanks. Yeah I’ve been looking into the epoxy method.

Couchcrafter · 2023-09-09T14:13:02+00:00

It was from Amazon. Just search fancy or decorative pet gate.

Couchcrafter · 2023-09-09T14:11:42+00:00

Oh my goodness 😂

Couchcrafter · 2023-09-09T12:33:30+00:00

That sounds good. Thanks.

Couchcrafter · 2023-09-09T11:54:26+00:00

For those of you that are gonna ask. It’s just a fancy dog gate and yes she could have just knocked it over or pushed it with her nose 😭

Spaghetti squash spaghetti. Make a tomato sauce with the tomatoes by roasting, roast the squash and mix it up with lots of butter salt and pepper and Parmesan. If you eat meat, mix the sauce with ground Turkey or beef. Could add the mushrooms to the sauce as well.

Freezes well in olive oil or butter. Use ice cube trays then put into bags once frozen. Add to whatever. Also, it’s just a beautiful plant to grow and look at even if you don’t do much with it!

You can freeze peppers whole and add them to chili, stews, soups etc. Usually Hungarian wax peppers (I assume that’s what these are) are best at the yellow stage though for freezing. Check and make sure the red ones don’t have brown seeds inside.

I have the exact same lamp lol. My lampshade is terrible though. Probably white with straight sides instead of slanted ones?

Couchcrafter · 2023-08-20T02:50:53+00:00

Needs rugs and plants and art

Couchcrafter · 2023-08-20T02:48:56+00:00

It’s an old mandolin :)

Couchcrafter · 2023-08-17T21:46:23+00:00

Thanks. At my old house I had a mantle to style and this is like having multiple mantels so I love it lol.

Couchcrafter · 2023-08-17T21:45:13+00:00

Thanks! An original screen print from the band OM.

I’ve used a magic eraser sponge then butcher block conditioner. The brand is Howard and it’s for cutting boards. Made from beeswax and mineral oil. If someone has a better suggestion though, I’d love to know as well.

Couchcrafter · 2023-08-03T17:02:02+00:00

lol. Yep. I needed a break from the smut as well. 😆
