(Selfship screaming under the cut)
Currently I’m pretty obsessed with beerwin (Bee x Erwin). Erwin is really patient and a strong, reliable presence! But he works too hard, so I am good at helping him take a break!
Erwin is so supportive and helps me with my silly little garden without being asked to help and he always listens to me talk about my silly little plants and watches obscene amounts of TikTok’s about cool garden stuff that I want to add and whatever else is rattling around in my silly little brain.
I like it when he tells me about books he’s reading, or when he lets me drink some of his tea/coffee (I’m perfectly aware that I can make my own but his tastes better bc he has it and yes I realize how ridiculous that is). I also love bringing him something cold to drink when he’s working outside in the heat, and we’ve started sitting on the porch in the evenings after the sun goes down. It’s quiet and all we can hear are the crickets but it’s so peaceful because it’s our home.
Also I like that he comes to the market with me because I don’t have to climb the shelves anymore bc he Tol.
Erwin has several pairs of work khakis that are torn and patched hundreds of times but he won’t get rid of them because he said they still get the job done but I think it’s because he likes when I mend them, especially with fun fabrics. He’s a berry fiend tho and everytime he’s outside he eats several handfuls of berries from the bushes but he always brings me some wherever I am. He’s so cute when he does it.
He’s very nice to our chickens and talks to them and the ducks when he feeds them. The cow positively adores him, too, and so do the sheep and goats and all the barn cats. He’s so gentle with them, it makes me warm and fuzzy inside.
I’ve made a sweater for Erwin roughly each year we’ve been together. He will never get rid of any of them. He still rotates them around, tho some are better for fall and some are better for winter, etc. He’s always keeping an eye out for yarn or fabric sales.
Erwin is the best at getting the seals nice and tight on our canning jars but I think he does this on purpose so that I ask him for help to open them. He also organizes our canning pantry so well, he has the patience and attention span to do it really thoroughly and we always have a good idea of what’s in there thanks to him. We go through jams and jellies and preserves so quickly tho, because he’s always using them on breads and cakes and graham crackers and cookies.
He makes the very best scrambled eggs I’ve ever had and he’s usually awake before me everyday. If he heads out to the barn or the fields early, he always refills my water bottle with cool water and has the coffee maker ready for me to use.
I normally go to sleep a little later than he does, so I like to leave notes in his boots or on the door for him to find in the morning. I also really like to make sure the coffee maker is ready for him to use when he wakes up. *note: we both know we don’t need to do this but it makes us pretty happy to do this for each other*.
