Trying to pose like Valkyrie here but could not do it with a straight face
Finally pulled the office party pics off the camera! Super proud of my circuitry makeup here. (I softened and highlighted it using an eyeliner brush and eyeshadow a little darker than my skin.) Less proud of that farmer’s flush on my arm.
I didn’t take many pics this weekend, but luckily @peek_ahu did! 🎃🧟‍♀️🦇

Apple orcharding with @kelthebear and @bigjakeyt5 🍎🍂☀️🌳
Got to see one of my absolute favorite authors last night at @keplersliteraryfoundation ✍🏼 @lainit writes the most masterful prose; I swear, every sentence is worthy of being put on a T-shirt. I’ve waited a year for Muse of Nightmares, but it’s funny - now that I have the book, I’m reluctant to read it. Even a big book like this can only last so long, so I’m going to wait until I can sit down and savor it, probably while eating chocolate 🍫📖✨

Happiest of Birthdays to my handsome love!
Still recovering from the epic launch of THE ECHO ROOM by @parkerpeevy last night! She and @tracicheeauthor did an adorable interview about survival situations (Parker would just stay on the deserted island 😆) and there was an actual escape room set up in the bookstore before the event! Here’s the tag line for this book (which I read in a single day): THE ONLY THING WORSE THAN BEING LOCKED IN IS FACING WHAT YOU LOCKED OUT. 🤯
🥕Carrot Harvest 2018🥕 These are ‘Cosmic Purple’ from Baker Creek. I did a mixed planting with a few cultivars and thinned blindly, not realizing the Cosmics out-competed the others by like, 95%. If you’ve never had purple carrots before, here’s the 411: They taste exactly like orange carrots, and they’re only purple on the surface. (Inside, they’re orange.) They (this applies to all cultivars) need frequent watering until they build up a canopy, and they should be harvested at 3-4 months. I kinda forgot about these and left them in the ground 5+ months, but the only downside was that I lost the biggest 3 to cracking. They grew in 2 square-foot boxes and yielded enough to fill 2 gallon-sized zip-locs. Also, they’re DELICIOUS 🤤
