    Super fun cover I’ve had on repeat for a week. Bonus: it taught me what the phrase “down bad” means, which is apparently a thing the kids are saying.

  • Of S’mores and Angels on Horseback

    The many lives of Angels on Horseback https://www.snackstack.net/p/the-many-lives-of-angels-on-horseback

    I enjoyed this little bit of investigation into the origins of the classic American campfire snack S’mores. Halfway through it turns into the much more interesting discussion of Angels on Horseback, a fancy hors d’oeuvre of bacon-wrapped oysters. I’ve never had those before, but I have eaten (and prepared) the similarly named Devils on Horseback. We usually do dates stuffed with Parmigiano cheese wrapped in bacon and baked in the oven. Really makes it feel like a classy 70’s dinner party…

    Sugar Maple progress. The sleeves have been cast off, and I’m now powering down the body! I love how that decrease on the front creates a chevron point that really highlights the gradient. #knitting 🧶

    So I was meant to be at a work thing in Vietnam this week, but it got canceled. Upside: I get to skip the 10hr flights and stress. Downside: No team Hollywood dress-up dinner, which means I bought this sweet yellow tracksuit for nothing. (Ninja sword not pictured.) #killbill #thebride

    Made it to colour #3 in the gradient! That’s the collar at the top, and I’m increasing as it extends down over the shoulders. #knitting #SugarMaple
