I’ll have more yarn topics for you soon, in the meantime, a couple of random bookmarks. Hope you like!

Cheating?
I was going to talk about spinning today. And possibly knitting. But I’ve just been too knackered to do either…. Here’s (some of) my wip collection! Not telling how long they’ve been in there….
Do daily photos count as postcards? Go check out my new blog if you’re bored. It’s just for laughs, something I can also do when I’m tired and foggybrained but refuse to give up. (yes, yes, I know what I said last Thursday but if I’m having fun it’s ok, right?) And, well, I did say I was going to do more Photoshopping in the future! I’ve been doing a bit of an experiment – how often do readers look at my menu? Answer according to wp stats is: Virtually never! 😀 (it also says nobody clicked the music video in my last post. Next time perhaps I’ll embed it. On autoplay. See how many subscribers I turn away or something *EG*)
If that’s not enough, here’s some cuteness for you, last Saturday I was babysitting. Meet Peanut the poddle puppy:
Monday, we’ll talk about oak leaves. I already dun that post, so I can go take a nap. 😉
Actually I’m ok today, I just thought I’d like to write ahead a bit and you know, hang out someplace away from a keyboard and actually do stuff. Perhaps.
Er det snyd?
…hvis man uploader daglige fotos istedet for at lave rigtige postkort? Jeg har lavet en ny blog for sjov, til nÃ¥r jeg trænger til at fedte med et eller andet men ikke orker snakke eller tænke. Og sÃ¥ har jeg testet, hvor mange der kigger i min menu, sandsynligvis ingen. 😉
Jeg ville have snakket om at spinde og strikke i dag, men jeg har været for træt til nogen af delene, så det bliver en anden gang. Masser af projekter i kø, men man skal jo kunne holde øjnene åbne til den slags.
Og så har jeg babysittet en pudelhvalp, hvis I trænger til noget sødt.
Pink with Amaranth
Not mine, but I think some of you might like to see this. It’s in German, but the pictures are worth it. (as well as the pictures on all her posts) Cold dyed with vinegar. Species used: amaranthus cruentus x powellii.
Yummies
I’m not intending for this to become a cooking blog, but I thought I’d share a few recipes I’ve stumbled across lately, to show my appreciation that other people blog about delicious food and well, to share with those of you who like food.
Also, it’s a way for me to remember the links and not lose them among my bookmarks 😉
Almond meal glutenfree crackers
My absolute favourite for old bananas – it’s in Danish but perhaps you can do a Google translate thingy on it? Add cinnamon or cocoa, oatmeal (they get a bit soggy the day after), glutenfree flour, lots of things work. They may end up a little flatter, but the spicyness of the brown sugar (muscovado?) is awesome.
Kale and strawberries. Now, this sounds lovely, but when are the two ever in season together??!
I’ve managed to grow a few things in the garden this year, this time I’m starting out slow with a few things instead of trying to plant a whole field of clay at once. So I may in fact become more cooking oriented as time passes. I’d love to study herblore, both for food and medicinal purposes. But that will be in another lifetime or my head will explode.
And finally, I got a lovely recipe for paleo bread at a family gathering on Sunday:
- 500 g assorted nuts, seeds or gluten free muesli
- 5 eggs
- 1 dl oil
- 2 tsp. salt
Grind nuts as finely or coarsely as you like, perhaps roast them first. Add the rest, bake in bread mold for one hour at 160° C. Tastes good fresh or toasted. And I bet you can add herbs or other spices too. Nigella on top perhaps?
Butterfly effect
Make sure you watch all of this – it’s not quite over when you think it is…

Without troubling of a star.
