Sheru (she/her)<p>Today's plan is sewing and an Austen movie. Just can't decide which one.</p><p>Maybe Persuasion? Not the new one (although that one is fun it's not the vibe I'm after today).</p><p>Stretch goal will be cleaning my fountain pens I think.</p><p><a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/MySlowLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MySlowLife</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/HobbitEra" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HobbitEra</span></a></p>

Sheru (she/her)<p>Decided to dip back into Hollow Knight today.</p><p>I've never played it not on stream (I used to be a twitch streamer). While I did love having a community that cheered me on when it got tough, I am enjoying playing it alone.</p><p>There's less pressure to get results quickly, I don't have to be entertaining or chatty. I can take my time having a think about it all.</p><p><a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/MySlowLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MySlowLife</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/VideoGames" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>VideoGames</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/HollowKnight" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HollowKnight</span></a></p>
Sheru (she/her)<p>Plan for today:</p><p>🥯 Bake sourdough bagels<br>🫐 Bake blueberry muffins<br>🌱 Crush some leca and get it soaking in root enhancer for shiso seed planting<br>🪡 Get the zipper installed in the commission bag, stretch goal is to baste the bag together to check fit<br>🫧 Coop power wash simulator</p><p>Yeah, that's a damn good day.</p><p><a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/MySlowLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MySlowLife</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/HobbitEra" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HobbitEra</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/HearthWitch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HearthWitch</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/KitchenWitch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>KitchenWitch</span></a></p>
Sheru (she/her)<p>Freezing some Doubletree Hilton cookies for a rainy day :D Apparently they released the original recipe a few years ago. </p><p>Chocolate, oat and walnut.</p><p>I really love my souper cubes.</p><p><a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/food" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>food</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/baking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>baking</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/MySlowLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MySlowLife</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/HobbitEra" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HobbitEra</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/HearthWitch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HearthWitch</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/KitchenWitch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>KitchenWitch</span></a></p>
Sheru (she/her)<p>I think they turned out perfect.

Sheru (she/her)<p>Not bad for a first time. But we'll see how they look after rising, and baking.</p><p>These are kaiser rolls, shaped in the traditional way from a long rope that is knotted and tucked into itself. </p><p><a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/food" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>food</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/baking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>baking</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/MySlowLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MySlowLife</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/HobbitEra" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HobbitEra</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/HearthWitch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HearthWitch</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/KitchenWitch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>KitchenWitch</span></a></p>
Sheru (she/her)<p>Looking forward to a very chill day here today.</p><p>Making gumbo with fixins (fresh French bread and potato salad and rice).</p><p>Also planning to make some kaiser rolls for the first time, including doing the traditional knot braid shaping. We'll see how that goes!</p><p>But first...

Sheru (she/her)<p>The sewing space setup is complete! I cannot WAIT to get going again.</p><p>Got the commission and also some lounge pants that are first on the docket.</p><p><a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/sewing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>sewing</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/FiberArts" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FiberArts</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/MySlowLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MySlowLife</span></a></p>
Sheru (she/her)<p>It is amazing how much one day of disconnecting and just playing video games and knitting with no external distractions improved my mental health.</p><p>That said I don't think it's the connections with people itself that's the issue... it's the slow creep of news and the depression it causes in my friends and myself. I've done my best to curate my timeline but it's not enough :(</p><p>Back to working on the hobby room today with limited online scrolling I think.</p><p><a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/MySlowLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MySlowLife</span></a></p>
Sheru (she/her)<p>Logging out of everything for a day or two. Just need to find my footing again. Feeling too overwhelmed and always connected, so gonna take a beat to just "be".</p><p><a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/MySlowLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MySlowLife</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/HobbitEra" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HobbitEra</span></a></p>
Sheru (she/her)<p>Excited and also super fucking nervous to kick off a new D&amp;D campaign tomorrow.</p><p>I have big plans and I hope that I have not set expectations to a point where I find myself unable to meet them. I *know* I've gotten better since I started over a year ago, but I still have such a long ways to go. </p><p>Burnout and other brain fog stuff don't make it easy, as I struggle to remember rules and whatnots.</p><p>Hopefully we all have a good time.</p><p><a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/DnD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DnD</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/TTRPG" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TTRPG</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/MySlowLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MySlowLife</span></a></p>
Sheru (she/her)<p>Oh yeah, this recipe fucking SLAPS.</p><p>It's light as a cloud but still manages to be sturdy. It is probably the most perfectest whole wheat bread ever.</p><p>It's a whole wheat sourdough sandwich bread. Mix the night before, bulk rise overnight. Then a 3-4hr rise before baking in a loaf tin.</p><p>Debating next time doing an oat topping, or maybe using everything bagel seasoning for something a little fun.</p><p><a href="https://heartbeetkitchen.com/easy-whole-wheat-sourdough-sandwich-bread/#recipe" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">heartbeetkitchen.com/easy-whol</span><span class="invisible">e-wheat-sourdough-sandwich-bread/#recipe</span></a></p><p><a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/Food" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Food</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/Baking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Baking</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/Sourdough" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Sourdough</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/Bread" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Bread</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/MySlowLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MySlowLife</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/HobbitEra" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HobbitEra</span></a></p>
Sheru (she/her)<p>Extremely sore from holding myself tense during the drive to and from the airport today. Driving in snow is not something that excites me.</p><p>Son also left bedroom in... not as great of a state as I had hoped, especially considering he just had two weeks off work. So anything in there is just going to have to wait til I have the mental capacity to clean.</p><p>Now to decide how to spend my afternoon... debating between Planet Zoo or building a Sims neighborhood.</p><p><a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/MySlowLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MySlowLife</span></a></p>
Sheru (she/her)<p>Snow storm here today in the Valley. Glad I started some sourdough bagels last night. A house made warm by the oven and filled with the smell of fresh baking bread is a great way to spend a cold snowy day!</p><p>If I can shake this headache I might go in for some knitting.</p><p><a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/MySlowLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MySlowLife</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/HobbitEra" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HobbitEra</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/HearthWitch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HearthWitch</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/KitchenWitch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>KitchenWitch</span></a></p>
Sheru (she/her)<p>Today's plan:</p><p>Bake pretzels<br>Do laundry<br>Knit</p><p><a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/MySlowLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MySlowLife</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/HobbitEra" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HobbitEra</span></a></p>
Sheru (she/her)<p>Woke up today (after sleeping through the night which is rare) feeling refreshed and happy. Which is also astonishingly rare.</p><p>I really think that cancelling everything yesterday and just spending my day baking and playing video games is the reason. Sometimes we just need to check out of life for the day.</p><p><a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/MySlowLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MySlowLife</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/HobbitEra" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HobbitEra</span></a></p>
Sheru (she/her)<p>Bagels are baked, roasts are in the crockpot for beef dip (the good roasts were on a BOGO this week so I'm gonna do a big ol batch then freeze them), nearly done swatching beads for the shawl...</p><p>Not a bad morning! Maybe some video games and then a little walkies later.</p><p>Plus Japanese practice, ofc. Really need to enforce that study (I have the time, I just also have ADHD)</p><p><a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/MySlowLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MySlowLife</span></a></p>
Sheru (she/her)<p>So, tonight's dinner has been affectionately coined the "three pasta circus" by my Person. Lol.</p><p>I make a batch of fresh pasta noodles. Then dish three bowls of it with various sauces<br>- pesto and shrimp<br>- shrimp alfredo<br>- beef marinara</p><p>It's easier than it sounds as the sauces are all made ahead of time. My marinara is defrosting now. The pesto is homemade and also defrosting. And the alfredo is jarred.</p><p><a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/food" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>food</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/MySlowLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MySlowLife</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/HobbitEra" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HobbitEra</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/HearthWitch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HearthWitch</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/KitchenWitch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>KitchenWitch</span></a></p>
