Last Notes npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo I hope it turns out delicious! npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo I make this mini muffin recipe for my three little ones. they like them a lot and I do too. no added sugar and egg-free because one of them has an egg allergy. https://npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59.blossom.band/1e5b7b674ecf2e1254c795f40c734da21d6ebf2b87a144805eb49d0bfa856b5e.jpg https://npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59.blossom.band/268a2e12ce272e20ecf40f028d1019cf50f751c6c5952cd7eebd8443b258a0bd.jpg pictured with optional blueberry but I prefer to make it without Ingredients 2 ripe bananas 2 tablespoons ground flax seed 5 tablespoons warm water 1 tsp vanilla extract 100g melted butter 160g all purpose flour 1.5 tsp baking powder blueberries (fresh or frozen, optional) oil/butter to grease pan equipment two large bowls one butter melting vessel measuring spoons mixing spoon/spatula one small bowl and whisk/fork for flax eggs mini muffin pan two spoons for scooping into the pan Short version 0. Preheat to 375°F and grease pans 1. Combine the wets 2. Combine the drys 3. Add the dry to the wet and mix until no dry remains. Do not over mix. 4. Bake for 15 minutes 5. Cool in pan Long version because karo talks too much 0. Preheat oven to 375°F and grease pans. Oven and pan needs to be ready to go because this recipe rises based on baking powder and it loses efficacy once it gets mixed with liquid. 1. Combine ground flax seed and water. Whisk until combined and is starting to be a little gloopy. Set aside. 2. Melt butter. I sliced into thick pads into a glass measuring cup and microwave in 20 second bursts. 3. Mash bananas in a mixing bowl. I go til there are only small chunks remaining. 4. Combine flour and baking powder into a second mixing bowl. I wrote 1.5 tsp baking powder but I end up throwing in an extra pinch of it for, I dunno, it makes me feel better about not being able to get as much lift because I'm not using eggs. 5. Add flax eggs and vanilla to bananas. Stir melted butter if it has separated while sitting and then add it to the mixture. Mix everything together until combined, mostly homogenous. 6. Prepare to work fast for the remaining steps cuz baking powder will start lifting when it gets combined with liquid ingredients. 7. Add the flour and baking powder mix into the banana bowl. When I add it, I try to cover as much surface area of the wet ingredients with the flour instead of just dumping it in one spot in the middle. 8. Mix it all together until there are no white flour dry spots. Use a gently folding motion where you insert your spatula under the mixture and fold it over like you're flipping an over medium egg. 9. Spoon the batter into the mini muffin tin. About level or just under filled is fine. top with a fresh or frozen blueberry. 10. Bake for 15 minutes. 11. Cool in the pan to give it support while cooling. Some questions I had for myself that you may also have 100g butter? why not 113g which is one stick of butter? I don't know. It's what I wrote. Past karo could not be reached for a comment. Present karo says an extra 13g of butter will be okay if you want to skip scaling and use the whole stick, probably. ground flax seed? I thought this was gonna be one of those fancy organic grocer things but nope, Walmart has it. can I make regular sized muffins with this recipe? I've never done it. It probably would work. If you try it, let me know how it goes. can I make a double batch? Yes. I did this for the first time recently and doubling the ingredients works. Can I freeze these? We set out 6 to eat the next day and froze the rest. To reheat, I microwave for about 20 to 40 seconds (depending on how many) and then toast them in the toaster oven. is this gonna work? I ask myself this everytime especially as I mix the butter into the wet ingredients. folding, what a silly way to describe stirring. I'm just gonna stir it really fast, vigorously and for an extra long time to make sure everything is definitely mixed. surely, that will be okay? It'll be okay if you like chewy, dense muffins instead tender, fluffy muffins. Aggressive stirring will start to work the flour to form gluten and doing it for more time will lessen the lifting power of the baking powder. why is there a step zero? because I forgot to write preheat the oven, just like I forget to preheat the oven before baking. will you put this on zap cooking? yes! but not sure when. I wrote too many words for this simple recipe. I hope you guys make these and they bring joy to your life while you eat them. If not, taro and the twins will gladly consume them on your behalf. npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo yes, but how many mini muffins could you make with that without a banger recipe? npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo yes! banana and ground flax seed npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo mini muffin recipe posting delayed by nap refuser culprit #1 and culprit #2 the twins are on the verge of walking and it is seriously messing up their sleep. npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo would it be weird if I shared my mini muffin recipe right now? the situation with Coinkite and Coldcard is heartbreaking and angering. It's being talked about it by everyone. but also, these muffins have no added sugar and is egg free cuz one of the kiddos has allergies. I've made it a few times and I'm kinda proud of it. npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo do these people not know how reverse image search works? 😑 npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo he is doing so well now. he runs so fast now and loves to climb things. thanks for your concern ❤️ npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo I'd like to think that we have done a good job fostering a love for reading with our kids. at bedtime we saw on the monitor that he got out of bed, went to his book cabinet and brought a book back to bed. He fell asleep cuddling the book. npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo we are not getting discharged today. Another night at the hospital with my baby. We got more tests done today to rule out more things which means we still don't know what's up and can only manage symptoms. Hope he feels better tomorrow. #nevent1q…39cc npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo You're a Barbie girl in a fiat world life is plastic you ain't a bad bitch You have all the flairs No value anywhere Bitconization, life becomes creation Come on Barbie, let's go party #nevent1q…zq7w npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo that is so infuriating!!! it's so hard not to just call people dumb to their faces. npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo I always forget that reading comprehension of the general public is LOW. every so once in a while I'll ask questions about my crafts and hobbies on social media like reddit or Facebook groups (lots of old timey crafters on there) and get useless replies. So many of them clearly demonstrate a complete lack of understanding what the post was about and the questions asked. Just like those people who leave reviews on Amazon that says "I don't know if it's good or not." or yelp reviews that are like "didn't eat here. laundromat needs quarters." uggghhh. okay. rant over. no more asking the Internet for answers. I'll just fiddle and experiment myself. npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo is it supposed to be in Spanish? or just me? npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo why stop at one? lol npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo they absolutely are. npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo thank you 😭😭😭 npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo thank you. baby is doing better. hope we will get discharged today. npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo do you think the ER will give me a frequent visitor punch card? We went yesterday evening and was admitted into the hospital by midnight. I'm glad to know that my instincts were not wrong but it also sucks that we're here. It is incredible how much medical technology and analysis was done in such a short time. Blood drawn and analyzed within an hour. CT scan done and results within an hour. Cerebral spinal fluid drawn and results within an hour. (They stuck a big needle into his spine! I stood aside while they started to prep. Doc said "are you gonna be okay watching?" to which I decided no, I will not be okay and went to wait in the hall and listened to him wail there.) There's so much collective knowledge about human physiology, medicine and biology converging on one little 8 month old dude to figure out what's wrong and help him feel better. Being in the PICU is heart wrenching but he's doing a lot better than yesterday and we've ruled out the major big bad ailments. That leaves us with big question marks on why he was in such poor condition. The upside is that he's getting better with his body is fighting whatever illness on his own. What a champ. #momstr npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo the one upside to the 1.3 mil house is that it's on a third of an acre in a suburb which is pretty nice. npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo I finished reading Station Eleven and now I'm very grateful for the things we have. all the little things that make up a life. npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo thanks for the laugh this morning npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo sooo crazy!!! who is making this kind of money with wages stagnant? npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo absolutely not! I grew up in this neighborhood and we would have never considered ourselves as millionaires. it's bonkers. npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo who the hell is buying a 4 bed, 2.5 bath single family home for 1.3 MILLION DOLLARS. it's crazy. npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo these little ones are more online every day. I came back in the house from a workout session out in the garage gym. As I entered the living room, all three little dudes stopped what they were doing and looked up at me. I greeted them as I walked past to get to the bathroom. But nooo, mama isn't allowed to leave line of sight. they all cried for me, in absolute sync. I stayed to play with them a little until other things caught their attention. I'm not used to that kind of unified reaction and demand for my attention. Guess I better. #momstr npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo yes, but which taco bell packet? there's only one correct answer 😆 npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo dude, they are speedy. especially if there's milk involved. When I bring the bottles and say "time for milk!" they pop their heads outta whatever trouble they're getting into and book it towards me. npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo all wheel drive and front wheel drive, haha. Churro moves his arms and legs in sync, alternating. good, proper, dare I say, perfect form. Falco on the other hand is all arms. He throws his elbows forward and pulls the rest of his body. all arm power lol. so cute to see them grow! npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo I don't post videos or images of my children so you'll have to use your imagination. Both of them are getting great at crawling on their tummies. One of them crawls using AWD and the other is FWD. #momstr npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo no I don't but some days I wish I did. learning fundamental strategy and studying the game will give you a leg up on most real life casino players. npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo I once went all in with a nut flush against a straight on the river. it was like 3 grand in the pot. dude was so pissed he got beat by a little lady they had to escort him out the poker room. npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo it's an induction pressure cooker model. super fast mode is 15 minutes and regular mode is about 48. there's a "super delicious" mode that's longer but I haven't tried it yet. npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo probably a pinched nerve or a concussion. npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo I am so grateful for this new rice cooker that can make rice in 15 minutes cuz I always forget to make rice. npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo me! I'm the bread maker machine and I do a great job. or so I'd like to think. not very helpful but I hope you will get some good responses cuz it'd be nice to offload that labor to a machine from time to time. npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo it is amazingly cute when all three of them start giggling at apparently nothing. also, a little creepy 😬 npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo the littles are connecting their day time nap cycles now so my problem now is when do I wake you guys up? are you sleeping too much??? what a nice problem to have 😆 npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo I know! The doc was like, any questions? I'm like, nope! they're babies doing baby things. The upside to our appointments is that our pediatrician just got back from paternity leave for his first so we just chat about his baby 😆 npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo taro has tagged along to so many well baby appointments that going to the doctor is not a scary thing cuz he never thinks it's for him 😆 npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo taro has a toy plane that he can assemble and take apart using a toy power drill. incredibly fun. he also has a toy train tracks set with train cars. Both are toys with many parts. The parts are big enough to be toddler friendly and small enough to make my mama-radar go "let's keep this out of your little bros' mouths, kay?" During the day, these toys are stowed away in their storage bags and only come out when the twins are napping or asleep for the night. taro knows this. Of course, that doesn't stop him from asking for them all day long. When they were finally sleeping, I asked which one he wanted and he said choo choo. So I gave him the train bag and sent him on his way to the play area. I went to go do some chores and he came by later to me asking for the plane. I saw his train pieces were still scattered so I said "put your train pieces in the bag and we can change to your plane." I think a more natural way to speak would be to say "if you want to play with your plane, you have to put away your train first." I had to fight the urge and instead specifically speak in a way that I know he understands. I went back to my chore and later I heard the rattle of him walking with his train bag. He did indeed put all 40 of the pieces back in which was surprising. I thought he'd at least miss one or two. I met him at the cabinet where the plane was stored. We traded out his toy and he went off happily. I don't know why I wanted to share this story. I think it's because I'm amazed at how much he's understanding these days. How he has internal motivations to do his own thing. How he and I can communicate and understand each other. It's really marvelous and I can't wait to see him grow and grow. #momstr npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo preparedness! for the toddler, we bring his utensils, food scissors, small plate and straw cup so it's easy to prep food for him from what we order. Of course, snacks to tide him over. for the twins, we bring our own high chairs that strap to chairs cuz I don't expect restaurants to have three high chairs available ever. Since they're starting solids, I bring their food, snacks and milk. Toys to keep them entertained. They will usually be able to sit from us being seated to ordering food to eating. If it takes a long time for food to be served, taro will go with Dad for a walk around outside and I'll text him once food is up and taro's portion is plated. We pick places that we know have consistent, fast service. Now that the twins can use straw cups, I alternate feeding them solids and giving them their cups for sips of milk. While they drink, I eat. Not that different from being at home, really. When they get fussy about being in the same place for too long, I'll sit one on my lap, then alternate. When they're finally fed up with it all, I pack them up into the stroller and have Dad handle the check and clean up while I walk outside. Restaurants are loud, visually stimulating and socially stimulating which can be a lot for young babies. They're pretty good about it now, but in the early days, I had to really be tuned to their moods and remedy the overstimulation (most of the time by going outside) It really is a case of the more you do it, the better it gets. If you have any specific questions, let me know. I'm more than happy to spill the "secrets" 😉 npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo the twins are a spectacle. they bring a smile to strangers' faces and they're compelled to return the favor. it's the sweetest thing. npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo another successful restaurant outing with three kids under 3 years old. we're getting pretty good at it! npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo he keeps his hands away from their mouths but hasn't realized how much bigger he is than those two and wants to join in when they dogpile on each other. thankfully, all of them are pretty small so no damage. npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo hello fellow mama 👋 I know what you mean! npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo we got an extra fridge recently too! with 3 boys eating us out of house and home in our future, we figured we might as well get it now. npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo everytime I go, I say I'm going to buy it but my husband doesn't seem keen. One of these days, I will wear him down 😆 npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo #nevent1q…0qal npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo I'm still here! the twins are doing really well and I finally have time to myself again 😊 npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo we got these silicone freeze molds called Souper Cubes and have been freezing tons of leftovers. so handy npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo today in twins: aww, look! they're holding hands 😍 oh wait, he just wants to bite his brother's fingers. npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo I'm so happy to hear that! also... I see you are a Blahaj fan :) npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo I'm afraid I'm too out of the loop to know what a Vibe Captain is. Thanks for the warm welcome back! npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo its only been two months since I posted last but it feels way longer than that. taro healed up really well from his hip surgeries and he's back to running around like nothing ever happened. sick scar though ⚡ the twins, oh man. THEY ARE GROWING. churro and ferro are their nicknames (did I say that already?) churro charges head on into anything. he explores and doesn't stop. ferro stays back and observes. we cut their hair different to better tell them apart. As for me, motherhood in the trenches of 3 young children is tiring but rewarding. They're all sleeping through the night (11 hours!) with the twins having mini wake ups but they're able to self settle. I have time to myself in the evenings now after chores are done to do my crafting. I'm mostly cross stitching these days cuz it's relaxing and rewarding. What's new with you guys? #momstr npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo here is the last time I worked on this project. so long ago! #nevent1q…kv8x npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo thank you for the blessings 🙏 3 under 2 is so much work but so worthwhile npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo is that an oball toy? glad you're doing well ❤️ npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo a late night update. I just got finished feeding one of the twins for their overnight feed. they're getting close to sleeping through the night. the world is too fun during daytime waking hours between rolling around and grabbing their feet to get all their needed calories in. They'll be starting solids soon and I hope that'll help too. In other news, taro was hospitalized for a week in January and had two hip surgeries. He had a very bad bacterial infection that took residence up in his hip joint so they had to open up his hip and flush it out. It got bad enough to affect the bone too. At his age, he is growing fast so once he's recovered from the surgery he shouldn't be affected whatsoever. He's been laid up for almost a month now but since being discharged from the hospital he's been making strides in recovery. So proud of my little dude. I can't wait for him to be running around with his busy toddler antics again. As for me, I switched from knitting to cross stitching. I pulled out a kit that I was working on before I had taro and picked up where I left off. The pattern is printed directly on the fabric so it's like color by number, but with stitching. a perfect blend of zoning out and repetitive work. I've been working on a bubble that's part of the background that's mostly shades of white. Boring and engaging which is just what I need at the end of the day after the three kiddos have gone to bed. It's been rough start to 2026 but this year is going to be filled with cuteness with a 2 year old and two rapidly growing twin babies. I'm excited. Hope everyone is doing well! Happy New Year! #momstr npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo for me, I found they were mostly hormonal and I'd get them like clockwork with my cycle. Haven't had a bad one since I got pregnant with taro though so maybe the hormone stuff sorted itself out. glad you're feeling better! npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo this is me 😭 it happens way more when I'm stressed and when I'm cold. throwing on a sweater and laying on a hot pad helps. hope you feel better soon! npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo adorable!!!! npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo seems like you and I have similar tastes in books so I'll be using your reading list as inspiration. it's been a long time since I read a new book npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo I LOVE The Expanse. going from reading Expanse to Dune is a whiplash though cuz the writing style is different. npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo taro is still learning how to distinguish between soup, curry, sauce and dip. he thinks it's all soup 😆 npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo it's about time to read Dune again for me npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo as much as there is space and also whenever there are sales 👀 npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo I could probably get a lot of reading done if I did audiobooks cuz I spend so much time contact napping or getting them to be drowsy enough to sleep on their own. I could never get into audiobooks though. npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo it can go up to letter but I'm just using it for 4x6 photos npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo gorgeous!!! #nevent1q…hx9f npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo I picked up a photo printer and laminator over the holidays. I'm definitely entering my capital M Mom era 😆 npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo I can't help you build it but it sounds like I would be a candidate for testing it lol. npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo ooo nice. the garter will be squishy 🥰 npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo it's raining. every person in the house is sick with the cold. so miserable yet taro still finds the energy to run around the house cackling like a maniac 😆 npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo yes they are! even if you just do the simplest pattern, they turn out amazing npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo I read so much too. I really need to get back into it. npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo I thought about getting taro rain boots but husband was like we live in the desert, are you sure? 1 week of rain later, I'm really reconsidering. npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo I've never heard of meringue in a cup. gotta try it now. npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo what're you making? 👀 npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo the babies are small and difficult for just a short time. work and life doesn't stop for them. 🫂 for all you guys. npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo I vividly remember my mom driving through huge puddles and watching splash from the tires. We were out in the rain a lot too. I'm having such a hard time remembering specific rainy day activities. I'm guessing lots of books and video games? I read so much as a kid. npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo When my husband proposed a similar plan, I told him no way, I don't want to make it harder on me earlier than I need to. I'll have care for all three kids on my own when you're back to work no matter what. I've always been the build wings on the way off the cliff type person and he's the meticulous planner. I had some coffee and went to bed at 11:57 after a quick proxy countdown smooch with H. Ahh, parenthood. Happy New Year 🥳 npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo congratulations and keep it up! npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo it is raining lions and wolves over here. what rainy day activities did you enjoy from your youth? #asknostr npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo dang. ccna is still a thing? npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo what, no gats? npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo I'm wondering if we'll see this reverse as fathers are more involved in raising children than ever before. npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo why not hot fingering action? npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo having had a singleton and then twins, I wouldn't say it's ten times harder. I think a lot of the difficulty comes from whether it's your first baby and not so much that there's two. Having twins as your first babies is extra hard mode. When it comes to soothing two babies at once, I see if one can be bounced in the bouncer. Still trapped because I'm holding one and bouncing once but at least I have one hand free to dick around on my phone. When we need to carry two babies at once, it usually isn't for a long time so I'll carry them in my arms or wear them in the twin carrier. Even though the carrier means I'm handsfree, the bulkiness of wearing two babies makes it hard to do much else. During the day, we try to sync their feeds and naps as much as possible. Sometimes they will both sleep at the same time which would be prime adult nap time but we have our first born who is on one nap a day so very rarely do all three nap simultaneously. At night, I take care of them solo and prefer to have them a little staggered. As they got bigger they feed more easily and are soothed back to sleep easily. On a good night, I'll get two 2 hr stretches of sleep and then when my husband swaps with me in the morning, I get a 3 hrs stretch uninterrupted. It is getting a little better every day as they get bigger. hope all is well with you and yours ❤️ npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo I love this game! playing through right now. havent rolled the credits yet npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo Whitin npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo "taro seemed really hungry since it's so close to dinnertime. he kept asking for cookies so I gave him one." real solid logic there grandma 😑 npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo i read a couple other people's patterns and notes to get a general idea of construction and then did my own thing. I cast on the number of stitches for my foot circumference. rounded down to the closest multiple of four. knit 2x2 rib for about 2 inches and then knit the 2x2 spiral rib. the spiral shifts one stitch to the right or left every 6 rows. for the toe, I did the same kind of decrease you'd do at the top of a hat. I hope that helps! npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo remember the yarn that was too thick for mitts? I'm making a pair of spiral socks instead! they're gonna be so cozy 🥰 when I learned about this unique sock construction, I had to give it a try. it uses spiral ribbing to hug the heel and can be put on in any direction so it wears evenly. https://image.nostr.build/3508e4db8204afaa16e0908ad193f028e81b4dc34c73d2123bdb8e1f37bbc06e.jpg #yarnstr #knitting npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo so sweet! thank you :) npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo haven't decided on the exact model yet but a flat bed mid gauge machine with a ribber. npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo it's kinda crazy to think that I'm 1 million sats away from my dream knitting machine. Selling my handmade socks and hats over the last few years have slowly been getting me there. maybe in the near future, I'll be able to get back to work. About 28 more pairs of socks! npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo good luck 🍀 hope they all find wonderful homes ❤️ npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo adorable! what're your plans for the pups? npub1z674e6ztne66luq0qmt3l9r8uck68zqnz6x6fzuwad46me0mjwfsfngz59 karo yes!!! chow mein and orange chicken please!!!
