Look! I remembered it was Monday!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last week<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Tuesday: <\/strong>As I’ve said elsewhere, my community supported agriculture share (from a local farm that’s been in business since the 1870s, about 8 miles from me), went from “Hello, here are some vegetables” to “HELLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOO HARVEST!” Very energetically. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

(Nearly half of that, by both volume and weight is corn, but wow is it tasty corn. I made a corn and zucchini salad last night, with feta cheese, red onion, and cilantro, and I am a very happy camper.) <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Friday<\/strong>: Baking bread for Lammas (and Lammas ritual). I made a cottage cheese dill loaf with bonus scallions, which was an excellent life choice. (I’ve been eating it with whipped cream cheese, also a recommended life choice if you like that sort of thing) <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Saturday: <\/strong>Our coven Lammas ritual, via Zoom – we each made or acquired interesting bread, and shared stories either about bread and our traditions around it, or folk or fairy tales involving bread and its ingredients, which was great fun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m missing the community Lammas hosted by friends rather a lot (they did it, but obviously, just for their household…) but we carry on. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’ve also spent a bunch of time watching videos from CoCoVid, where a bunch of historical costumers who would normally be at Costumer’s College, a historical costuming convention, got together to post things on YouTube. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are some great panels, and a lot of videos, ranging from discussions about diversity, disability, and inclusion in costuming to the (probably more expected), “how to make this particular thing”. The program’s here<\/a> – a couple of the live panels will be coming down as of the 9th, but most items will be up indefinitely. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This week<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Working on getting things ready for the next book launch (hopefully to be out Friday, and I have several last tasks to work on before that…) <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Laura Tempest Zakroff has launched a series of short dance-based Witchual Workouts (first one was posted today<\/a>) that I’m looking forward to trying out. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Saturday: <\/strong>Our last Dedicant class (about initiation), and then Seeker class about ritual theory and practice (this is the shorter version, designed for ‘things you might want to know before being part of a ritual’) <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m taking the week of the 10th off for vacation, and very much looking forward to catching up on my writing wiki, doing some things to my bookshelves (and organisation of my ebooks) and generally bringing a bit more order to my life. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
