My Favourite Articles This Week
A very interesting read about why ChaptGPT would be terrible for healthcare, from a GP.
I love this list of the best lessons learned in 40 years. So many great reminders, and solid advice.
A gorgeous musing on how to care for ourselves as the days grow darker, faster. From the author of Wintering, Katherine May (which I’m reading right now!)
I had a poem published in Juniper, an online literary magazine! Care for a read?
My Favourite Pins This Week
I am a huge fan of easy dinner ideas, and this one pot Mediterranean dish is a good one! It’s gluten free because the recipe uses gluten free pasta, but you could also use normal pasta, that’s not going to change anything. It’s otherwise a great, restaurant-worthy pasta dish that comes together in a flash! Find the recipe here.
A deeply satisfying dessert square for anyone who loves chocolate and peanut butter together! These would be a wonderful baking project for this weekend, now that the weather has turned chilly. Find the easy recipe right over here.
So there’s one particular Link Love post that gets more traffic than any other on my site, and it is because of a very old link – that sadly doesn’t work anymore!) to a Pinterest post on crocheting with beads. I’ve since updated the link, but as it is a DECADE old, I thought I’d post the updated link here- how to crochet a necklace with beads. This would be a beautiful gift to make for the upcoming holiday season, too! Find the tutorial right here.
With the cold weather finally arriving, Maybe it’s time to whip up a new cowl? This is a great free pattern from Two of Wands that features a latvian braid technique, and is a really fast knit with bulky yarn on 8mm needles! Find the great free pattern over here.
In prepping for the holiday season, I’ve really been feeling the urge to declutter and clear the decks- especially to make room for all the holiday decorations and the tree that I’ll be putting up at the end of the month! If you are feeling a little overwhelmed with stuff these days, this is a great list to go over. You can check out the original post here.
I hope that you all have a wonderful weekend! I personally have been hating how dark it is in the evening now that the time has changed (I thought we were all going to stop doing that!?!). But it’s a great time to do cozy crafting and bake something delicious. Sending you all high fives and hugs!
