My city in Everdell and my family tree in Legacy: The Testaments of Duke de Crecy. Both are really fun worker placement & tableau building games. Especially in Legacy I think the building part is more fun than worrying about scoring well.

Put off my other activities and finished book 3 over the weekend. I liked this one a lot!!

I think it's been about 15 months since I started the dragon fruit from a cutting and now there's a flower! I have never fully appreciated from pictures just how giant these flowers are.

I'm pretty pleased already with GF pancake mixes and also masa flour pancakes but this from-scratch recipe was very good and worked just fine (although I'm still working out the proper heat levels for the griddle pan on my stove so I don't burn them).

A little floral bunny!

I did embroider a little pink nose but there’s a pink flower right on the nose so it’s pretty much invisible lol

#that is very cute #fiber arts

I successfully converted this recipe for a chocolate chip sheet cake to gluten free and it is very delicious.

Two set collection painting games with otherwise different mechanisms. I'm still a bit unsure on the Bob Ross game but the theme still makes me laugh. I like Atelier although I don't love the area control for resources.

I was not super successful with the southern biscuits (maybe a bit under-baked in the middle?) but I never really mastered the gluten version either. However, they did taste quite good with some extra butter.

Another 4 set collection games. Set is one of my longest owned games (although this deck is brand new). Phase 10 dice is not a game I would probably select to play but it seems less awful than the card version and I think it would be good for family nights. Interesting that one of the easiest phases (7 of one color) in the card version seems the hardest in the dice version!

Cat Lady and Sushi Go Dice have some similar scoring mechanisms and I like both as relatively easy to teach & play games.

I like Cover Your Assets, Quiddler, and Five Crowns as simple set collection games that can be played with larger groups.

#board games #card games #almost completed both quiddler and five crowns solitaire today

Played three deck building games and one new roll n write. I always forget how much I like Dominion and Dice Forge until I play them. I still fail miserably at Friday, however. And so far the Super Skill Pinball seems fun! It actually makes more sense than real pinball.

It's the time of year where I don't need to spend much time in the produce section of the grocery store.

#gardening #flowers #black sesame #veggies #finally got squash this year #and have no ideas what to do with it since it's never been successful before

hey incredibly specific ask: does anyone have a reference photo of the bit of Emperor's New Groove where Yzma says "I'll turn him into a flea"? I think I might want to sew that flea as a plushie
