It's been a year. And I still miss you so much sometimes that I can't breathe. You were the most wonderful beautiful boy, and you were so so loved. Even your vet, Dr. Adi, said to me, "Bowie was special. There will never be another Bowie." I put you on my nightstand so that we still get to sleep next to each other every night. I see you in my dreams, and I hope you never leave.
There will never be another Bowie.

Completely by accident, I scheduled my sophomore Nursing Foundations class to talk about wounds on Halloween. Prof. Sally knows a thing or two about stitching them up, luckily.
#happy halloweeeeeeen#halloween#i knit this wig a million years ago and finally get to wear it today#i am pretending that i am not feeling intense anxiety about the bobby pins holding it on

I feel today's kitchen adventures have fully cemented me into my Bean Queen title. Red bean and ham soup from Mark Bittman, crispy roasted chickpeas, and Alton's Brown's Once and Future Beans.
#they all taste like delicious spite at my family for being such jerks about fucking red beans#but seriously#these alton brown baked beans are heaven#handmade#home cooking

I have absolutely no idea why, but the lovely people at the Starbucks on my way to work are always the nicest people in the world to me. They know my name and my car and are just so wonderful to me every morning, and I feel like I never deserve their glorious kindness.
Particularly today, when I was chatting with Maddie, who was taking orders in the drive-thru, I complimented her Taylor Swift friendship bracelets and found out that she was getting to go to the show tonight. I told her how much fun we had at the Reputation show and told her that I was excited for her.
Then, I drove around and was stopped while getting my drink because she ran inside and passed this bracelet through to the pick-up window, making sure that I didn't leave before I got it. How freaking adorable.
I know that there are a lot of jobs where people have to take on their "customer service" persona and fake niceness all day. However, this crew just really made my day and consistently makes me feel good every morning. It feels genuine, and it completely disarms me every time, and it makes me feel like a better person than I probably am. They are about to get so much Halloween candy next week.
#kindness#coffee friends#yes i know that they have to be nice to everyone#but it's been a rough few years and i forgot how nice it is to have someone be nice back to you

There is a running joke in my family that I cannot make red beans because of one incident where I attempted a slow cooker red bean recipe at the suggestion of my father, which was a disaster.
I am very proud of myself that through repetition over the past 2 years, I make kickass red beans and rice from scratch, and everyone can go suck eggs.

Most days, rather than doing what I should be doing, I would much rather be knitting improbable shapes.

This elevator could only tell you if you were on the 2nd floor, or not on the 2nd floor. I half expected an elevator monster to crawl out, moaning "twoooooooooooooooooo..."

The striations of recent projects past, if you were interested in that sort of thing.
I've been keeping my clipped ends in a Mason jar next to where I knit on the couch, and it has turned into a lovely little piece of art in its own right.
