a fiber obsessed, transplant vermonter with yet another internet toy. I like to talk about knitting, chickens, food, crafts, and apparently the weather.

Let’s be clear: 50 immigrants lost their lives in San Antonio because of a clear failure in leadership at all levels of government. To ensure that tragedies like this never happen again, @POTUS must end #RemainInMexico and #Title42 NOW. via @RAICESTEXAS

First there was this sultry summer view from the swing chair. Then there was some brunch. #ChildFreeMorningsAreSoRare #vermontbyvermonters #summer #winooski #winooskidam @ Winooski, Vermont https://t.co/M0QCsdYWpe

Why can't we find funding to identify missing persons? Why is @NamUsinfo being shut down? @SenSanders @PeterWelch @PatrickLeahy

When in doubt, just keep baking. This is a pear tarte tatin. The recipe is from Baking with Mary Berry except I used pears instead of apples because my pears were getting old and soft. The girls helped roll out the crust! #baking #bakersofinstagram #tart… https://t.co/y8cM1RyNFg

Things are scary right now, but one thing I can do is buy local from businesses that are adapting. This bakery took my order over the phone, then left my pastry and tea on the table for me to pick up. #vermontbyvermonters #Vermont #buylocal #covid_19 #bi… https://t.co/jzjMLqcis1

When in doubt, bake things. In my case this is my sourdough with homemade crabapple jelly. This is why everyone needed flour at the grocery store, right? #bread🍞 #sourdough #bakersofinstagram #kingarthurflour #localvore #sourdoughstarter https://t.co/oX9IiNn8VE

It's the most GBBS-y my kitchen has gotten yet! I'm making a birthday cake for @randomlyskunky and it's not a test-bake so it better work 😂 #baking #bakersofinstagram #cake #firsttimeeverbakingacakewishmeluck https://t.co/ijFFDfdJtw

I got my orchid to throw new blooms! Well, this one. I killed the other one I bought last year. And I'm not sure the one I got this year is totally happy either. I clearly have no idea what I'm doing since I treat them all the same. #orchids #orchidsofin… https://t.co/oTRUg7SNMz

I made welch cakes for a work brunch thing today. They're not quite like anything else I've baked (or eaten!) They're somewhere between a pancake and an english muffin, flavored with nutmeg and filled with currants. The recipe is from @kingarthurflour -m… https://t.co/myQYkBjhFe

I had to put the brioche down last night (it got dark and I had a third glass of wine) so I made sim very real progress on my Fossevein sweater. I've added bust short rows and somehow didn't ruin the textured pattern! #seyonlodgeknitretreat #knitting #kn… https://t.co/HxM6O79LiJ

Uh oh. The shockingly pink poncho for my 6 year old coordinates with my own leggings a little too closely. #learningsomethingPINKaboutmyself #knitting #knittinglove #knittersofinstagram #knitstagram #knitwip https://t.co/dTiFXbThq9
