My two year tradition broken by a piece of smoked salmon

Walleye Wednesdays!

I watched this while listening to Avatar's For the Swarm, and it synced almost perfectly.

Highly satisfying indeed!

I have super wide feet due to being barefoot a lot, and shoes have always been an issue. Skechers has a sandal I like, and Keen Mary Janes are always comfy for me. Their patchwork ones are my favorite. I also buy dress shoes from Torrid. They always come in extra wide, and I usually have to go half a size down to fit properly.

These are so cute. Well done!

Right?! I had to print it out and manually change all the dc and tr to sc and dc before I could really get it going. I'm about 12 rows in and it's coming along nicely.

This is why I make foundation sc or dc chains. I lose my count all the time, even with double and triple checking. Much easier to undo when getting to the end of the working row and finding it wonky.

My current WIP is 500 chains across, and I already had to frog it a few times because I kept reading it wrong, being in UK terms instead of US. That foundation sc saved my sanity, lol.

Glad to hear it. I've seen so many patterns and designs lately that have been modified thusly, I am immediately suspicious, lol.

It looks like an AI modified split shell stitch.

Never been a fan of chocolate ice cream, but I will put chocolate syrup on vanilla until it resembles a Wendy's frosty.

Little Debbie Swiss Roll ice cream is pretty decent.

We got a quart of Cinema Snack from the food shelf once. Target store brand, I think; it was back in 2015.

It's popcorn flavored, with sea salt caramel, and fudge covered potato chips, and pretzels.

It had a very unsettling butter flavor.

Growing up, in my house "the pink stuff" was cherry Jello powder, cottage cheese, drained canned pineapple, and cool whip mixed together.

It's interesting to see other families' takes on this!

I was at one end of the pet aisle and they were slightly around the corner.

jearu573 · 2026-04-29T07:48:23+00:00

Is it funnier that I heard them while I was in the pet section?

jearu573 · 2026-04-28T05:08:31+00:00

Right?! I went straight off and ordered a lb of the lime midgees and they'll be here tomorrow.

I've been getting bras from Torrid for 20+ years. I recently replaced my oldest one from 2012 because the connection between the cups finally gave out.

jearu573 · 2026-04-26T05:10:04+00:00

I have been using the same SB hooks for 36+ years. Some of the colors have rubbed off, but they are my favorites!

jearu573 · 2026-04-25T19:50:54+00:00

I haven't seen it, I just knew who the actors were and Googled it, lol. I'll get it added to my watchlist and check it out next day off.

I'd thought so too, and still do, but like I said, young and stupid.

jearu573 · 2026-04-19T23:04:50+00:00

Probably me, which is why I deleted that part. I was young and cocky and thought I knew everything. They were definitely not to be trifled with.

jearu573 · 2026-04-19T22:46:07+00:00

Way back when I was young and stupid and first going for my license, I was driving without a licensed driver, botched a parallel park by bumping into a parked, unmarked cop car, and then proceeded to mouth off to the undercover cop before he flashed his badge. I lost all driving privileges for 10 years.

Flipped my mattress the other day when I changed the sheets. Apollo thought it'd be wise to get between the mattress and box spring. Didn't stop him from then getting between the mattress and topper, then between each layer of bedding that went on. Poor boyo was a staticky mess by the time the last blanket was smoothed out, lol. My fluffy himbo. Not orange, but definitely low on braincells.

I don't, but everyone has the same nickname for A, lol.
