My life right now:

Minding these seedlings, needing desperately to clean this room (the parts not pictured, and the part pictured too, just doesn’t look like it online).

Almost done with final edits of volume 3 of The Summa Domestica.

New slip for family baptismal gown cut out; just needs to be sewn and embellished. (More on that later, I hope; it’s for Deirdre’s baby, due after Easter!)

Holy Week and Easter food plans yet unmade.
