    My washing machine was such a scary purchase, it felt like buying it meant I was really a grown-up. Now it is dead and I am looking at new washing machines and I feel old and tired about it 😹

    This weekend so far I have: - made decent progress on alpaca spinning, cardigan knitting, and reticella learning projects - learned how to carve stamps - seen whales, an osprey, a kite, and a bunch of cool birds - got a bunch of ideas for new crafty projects - caught up with a bunch of lovely crafty people who live ranging from the gold coast to Maryborough - hung out with some kangaroos

    LBT (https://mastodon.social/@mem_somerville/116861800878379542): There are currently only four museums listed in Australia - I&#39;ve been to several regional museums that have lace and/or embroidery collections, I&#39;ll have to try and remember which ones they were and submit them! (Please help me if you know a good one, my memory is terrible)

    I love lentil bolognese. I just made a big pot (brown lentils, walnuts, carrot, zucchini, onion, passata, herbs etc) of sauce and after I portioned it all out I have: two serves pasta + sauce for tonight; three serves pasta + sauce for the fridge; and *six* serves of sauce for the freezer. I&#39;ve been struggling to cook so this is wonderful!

    Instead of any of the actually important things on my to do list for today, I spent three hours almost straight tidying and categorising my ebook library (still heaps more to do)

    Went to the tabletop weaving group and finally started winding the warp for my next table loom project... Don&#39;t ask me how many years I&#39;ve been meaning to start this project!
