Cincinnati’s Kings Island has awesome blueberry soft serve. Mmmm. But it gets really drippy really fast…

I took the kids I’m watching on a hike down to the Potomac River today, which was lovely although quite buggy. I think with my natural mosquito attracting abilities, I managed to get most of the bites. Oh, the sacrifices…
Then I headed over to Katie’s for a spur-of-the-moment baking experiment. We got our cake all stuck in the adorable mini-bundt pan, so they didn’t come out nearly as nicely as we’d planned, and then our attempts at homemade icing just turned from runny goop (where did all the powdered sugar GO?) into a huge mess. Ah, well. I can’t say no to fresh-out-of-the-oven yellow cake, no matter what form it’s in.
whale tees!
urgent news alert:
i am obsessed with grapefruit.

I must say that screenprinting is one of the most stressful arts I choose to dabble in. The entire time my mind whizzes through “oh no oh no i moved it wet paint! ah!” Of course, I lift the screen and everything’s fine and lovely and crisp and smooth and it’s all worthwhile.
I printed five shirts today with this lovely shade of blue… it’s almost turquoise, the second picture is more accurate color-wise.
I can feel my 14-year-old self telling me how awesome I am right now. Seriously, five years ago screenprinting seemed impossible, something I’d never try. Now I can do it, and it’s delightful in its hectic manner, and I just feel so cool.
