I THREW UP HERE!! (Not near the lake) binge ate before leaving home to clean out the fridge and then ate hella trail mix on the trail. Wearing a 25lb pack with a strap right across my stomach up 3k feet in 5 miles. Forgot to bring a bottle and didn’t want to get sugar in my water bladder so I bit off a chunk of fizzy electrolyte tablet it started foaming in my mouth and I was like well that’s too bad and swallowed it !!!!

Was fine while moving bc adrenaline but a o nauseous once I took my pack off it took half an hour to set up my tent bc I kept having to take breaks sitting down and then I puked and felt better but was too scared (and sleepy) to eat so. Just drank some ginger tea and went to bed without dinner. And then I woke up and ate 2 packs of ramennm!!!!

bringing this blog back for an anticipated ROCKING outdoor season

no.1 the best riverside campsite on gorgeous 80F weekday skinny-dipping campfire cooking and reading my least favorite Jane Austen book so far right by the bank

05/27-05/29/24 Beautiful beautiful 3 day 2 night trip on the enchanted valley trail. Forecasts looked great when I reserved my permit in April but I should know 45 day predictions don't last, lol. Despite getting rained on for 3 days I had a great time!!

4/16/24 tulip festival fixed me up if i do say so myself

forgot to post bakes for so long!! restaurant is closed for the szn so back to some cuter casual stuff for the cafe. peach apple pie // pear frangipane tart // rosemary orange hazelnut chocolate tart // batched apple pies // peanut butter chocolate s’mores cookies w marshmallow crème // lemon raspberry cupcake :3 (there are more than just 1)

spun a little bit: first is half a braid from a 4oz thing of combed top I got at a yarn festival last year. Second is hand carded from this CVM lamb fleece i got Wisconsin 2020 that I am finally starting to substantially chip away at 3 years later. They are both light fingering weight cable plied

Then I made this linen lace wrap/scarf. It is 7ft long lol. It took almost 3 months but it’s kinda an heirloom project so i wasn’t in a hurry

Crocheted a lil soap saver w some cotton thread! I forgot to take pics before abusing this thing in the shower so these are ig photos lmao

a sweater w a ton of knitpicks yarn I was trying to get rid of. I forgot to do any decreases so I’ll need to figure out how to doctor this up because there’s no way I’m frogging colorwork. I stopped where it is bc I actually ran out of yarn and had to order more but hopefully this will be done end of September

look at my kids
