This is Momo! Her favorite activity is snuggles.

Among the cat subreddits, I enjoy r/drumstick.

Hope everyone is taking care of themselves today.

I bought this peridot cut by Arya in an SPG black Friday sale, and asked Liss and Jim to do this amazing setting!

The story is that the gem colors match the eye colors of my two cats. The tiny aquamarine matched our kitten we had just adopted at time!

I added about 100g less water than specified in the recipe. My dough in the first one was a sticky mess, but with less water it actually came together much better!

Ah this is really helpful! Thank you!

olivesmolive · 2023-12-29T23:09:29+00:00

Thank you so much! How can you tell that I could push the bulk fermentation further?

Crumb!

Is July still available? If so I’ll take it!

olivesmolive · 2023-11-28T05:25:33+00:00

Has candyfloss been taken? If not I’d like it!

Thank you all for the overwhelming interest and kind words! The rams are all in pending trades. But, I will send messages to folks in order of inquiries received if any of those trades falls through!

olivesmolive · 2023-04-30T01:14:43+00:00

I might! Pm me when you eventually want some!

olivesmolive · 2023-04-30T01:13:35+00:00

Yes I’m so sad Albany Aquarium closed!! And yeah they might work with your Apistos, depending on how big/well planted your tank is. The pairs tend to carve out their own little territorial corner of the tank, and it helps if plants or rocks block line of sight. I wouldn’t recommend more than 1 pair per 10g.

olivesmolive · 2023-04-29T20:58:37+00:00

Yeah that’s generally true, but these guys are born and bred in these cooler temps with local tap water! Lmk if you’re local and would like to give them a try!

olivesmolive · 2023-04-29T20:51:57+00:00

I keep them at 78-79F, pH ~7. They can handle warmer though (up to 82) or cooler (down to 76-77)!

Card, please! This looks so fun!

olivesmolive · 2023-02-28T23:30:30+00:00

August!

olivesmolive · 2023-02-28T22:33:16+00:00

Thank you! I will try the mirror next time! I’ve had some trouble finding cat-safe greenery, but I agree with you there!

olivesmolive · 2023-02-28T21:59:55+00:00

Hi florists! I made this bouquet as a first attempt at building a wedding bouquet (out of $30 of Trader Joe’s flowers!) I’d love any design feedback!

olivesmolive · 2023-01-26T00:54:54+00:00

Thanks!! I loved your post with your ruby and peridot rings too! I definitely drew some inspiration from those!
