Makes Me Believe in Magic

Magic is what you want it to be. I dance and sing when no one is watching. Sometimes my brain says things and I want to share. Get lost in the adventure. You can also visit my creations at octobersixthcreations.com || Welcome to my world.

I swear when I flip these pages in Shannon Kaisers Find Your Happy book they are what I need for that day. How'd you know. I was sitting here thinking about my end of the year recap blog post. Decided to pick up the book for the daily refocus. Some could say my year has been about sharing particularly for the topics of food and environment. I know it has been about study. #yearofstudy #yearofyou #reflect #connect

Saturday happenings indoors because it is almost 100 out there and I need to get more hats in my shop. Catching up on youtube. Watching @vegaalexa and Carlos channel. Those two crack me up. Thinking about making a smoothie. #saturday

Working on more knit hats for the shop. Trying out more bold color combos. Of course all with a pom pom on top.

My view this morning. Yep @rustyseverus is sitting on top of me as soon as I rolled to my back when waking up. It was a might filled with barking at new noises. I'm sleepy.

This afternoon calls for a smoothie. Spinach. Maca. Strawberries. Banana. Black raspberries. Cacao. #plantbased #smoothie #fruit

These were actually a pancake recipe from plant pure nation that was not working out in the pan. So before I ruined/wasted all the batter I decided to bake them in the oven. Pancake muffins the new hip thing. #plantbased #plantpurenation #plantpure #pancakes #sunday #instafood

First time pickle making. Got pickling cucumbers at the farm market yesterday after berry picking. Gosh I love dill pickles. Waiting 48 hours to eat them is going to be difficult. #food #pickles #instafood

Big and small. Big one is mine. Little is for a present. Travelers notebooks are so easy. #craft #diy #notebook

Making the signatures for the inside of the travelers notebooks. Fun fact my environmental science class in college required us to make our own notebooks for the class. I think that was the first time I had made one out of cereal box. I also had to make one my freshman year of college for architecture class. I did start out as an arch major before geog.

day off means playing around with new ways to post stuff. This is the same old cabinet door I painted all white awhile back to use as a prop for photo taking. Decided I wanted one side to be chalkboard. Now I have black and white. Also made all these baby to toddler hats this weekend. #octobersixthcreations

Lunch time made easy. Veggies in rice wraps with a peanut sauce. Kelp noodles in there too. Never did Kelp noodles before. Yums in the tums. #plantbased #instafood #lunch

They smelled good in the oven that is for sure. Might have added a bit more of the spices. there is a bit of a lingering tempeh taste. A tiny bit. Many probs would not notice. My sense of smell and taste is crazy. Texture is on point from what I can remember of a meatball. Going to add the meatballs to brown rice pasta. #plantbased #food #instafood #dinner

Today is world environment day. Take some time to reflect on that. Think about something you can do in your own life to contribute to a better world environment. For me I continue to think about plastic going into our water. This year I am thinking about straws specifically. In the U.S. we use 500 million straws a day. Do we need to? Do our oceans, animals, and humans need to eat them when we discard? Nope #thelaststraw
