Put a finger down if every time you revive a compliment or someone says they’re proud of you you cry because all your life you’ve seen yourself as a piece of garbage!

Positive affirmations:

I deserve a halberd

I should be given a halberd

People want me to have a halberd

I can be trusted to own a halberd

I will be given a halberd one day

People will think my halberd is incredibly hot

After listening to SkyDxddy's music, I really wish I had listened to her music sooner because 18-24 year old me could've used it. Her music is very powerful and I listen to her now for past me.

Shout out to the girlies who struggle! I see you and you're not alone!

This mother fucker on TikTok... What a fucking fool..

October 29th I adopted this cute little tuxedo boy that I named Steve, after the son on American Dad (since I'm kind of obsessed). He was born April 3rd this year!

Stevie is an absolute doll. Still learning how to be an indoor kitty but he's such a good boy. Unfortunately he has to wait until his vet appointment to get vaccinated so he can meet the other kitties in our house.

Welcome home my little Stevie! 💚

Recipe Roundup in Review

In years past, I posted a two-month series of recipes suitable for the autumn season, which everyone seemed to enjoy very much. I’ve been too busy this year to make up a new queue, so I thought I’d compile a big long list of links for anyone who’s looking for recipe ideas this fall.

Update: I’ve posted more recipes since the original roundup and I’ve added those additional links to the list below. I’ve also done my best to mark which ones are vegetarian (🌿) or could be easily altered to be so. (Some could also be altered for a vegan diet using egg, milk, or butter substitutes.) Recipes which may include alcohol as an ingredient are also marked (🍷).

Some are fall-themed, others are for more wintry occasions. But all are designed to make the most of the season and keep our hearts and bellies full as we face the coming cold. Enjoy!
