I used to have a garden, I still have lots of plants. I'm a seamstress even if I was trying to forget about it.
Slowly rebuilding my life, one step at a time.
Folks.... I have decided to step down as Kith kitchen admin. I've realised I don't have the time any more to give the site the attention it needs, and I don't have the energy to assemble an effective admin/mod team.
I'm willing to hand to hand over the running of the site to one or more existing users, but if nobody wants to replace me as admin by the end of february, I will be shutting the site down before the end of the year.
I will be forever grateful to Duolingo because without it I wouldn't have survived in Spain and all of my basic Spanish comes from its free lesson, but it's so bothersome to me when a random notification pops, like "Anon1234 took your spot 😭". It's not my spot, c'mon, I'm just here to learn, not to transform my life into a game or a chart. I hate the progressive gamification of everything, but I really don't know how to avoid it.

People of @3goodthings, have you ever considered writing our hashtags in upper camel case? It would be easier for screen readers to figure it out, so #3GoodThings would be way better than #3goodthings
I'll start this practice right away with yesterday's good things!
1 I managed to sell a jacket that I loved sewing to a really nice customer, so I was more than happy
2 I sewed two nice neckwarmers
3 I had a nice aperitivo in the evening

Can you imagine that this is NEON PINK irl? 
I've just acknowledged that the stunning colours of the new neckwarmer I made are impossible to be captured by my phone camera. The neon pink becomes a stale magenta and the bright orange looks like sh!t.
Yaaaaay 
Looks like I ran out of willingness to cook, but I didn't run out of willingness to eat, and that's a problem.

1 My husband peacefully resting on his armchair
2 I bought a bracelet in memory of my grandpa, so right now I'm wearing something from all of my loved ones that are not here anymore
3 Lasagne al pesto. Stunning

Right now I've started making dresses that "look like me", just to tell a story. Something like a self-portrait, but made from fabric. Well, the first tattoo I got was a woman's head with a peacock on top, so when I saw these appliques I knew I had to have them.
This dress it's entirely handmade, you can wear it both with and without a belt (this particular belt doesn't come with the dress), it fits a L/XL size range. I can basically ship everywhere. More questions? I'm here!

Here you are something loud: a zebra skirt! Made out of African wax, the fabric looks almost waterproof, but the seams aren't sealed, so the skirt itself it's not really water resistant BUT! it's so freaking cool. On the back there's a black elastic waistband so it's suitable for both a size M and a size L. But I can make one made to measure just for you. 60€ plus shipping basically everywhere. More questions? Here I am!

Annnnd it's done. It could have used one more hour simmering but I'm tired. Right now the whole house smells like ragù and it's nice.
