- Yesterday, I made chocolate brownies for Kiki Dee (No.2 in my occasional series of “Chocolate Cakes I Have Baked For Pop Stars”). She commented that they were good, and did an awesome version of Amoureuse after knocking back a glass of red wine. I would like to be her when I’m 78.
- What a fascinating read to start the day. This speaks to what we at @barrowcadbury.bsky.social are trying to achieve with all the incredible folk who are part of @econjusticebrum.bsky.social #EconomicJusticeBrum
- Any day with poetry in it is a good one. A day with Ayan Aden, #Birmingham’s poet laureate, in it is special. ”Find strength in needing each other”

- Some Southern hemisphere star gazing! Incredible. Haven’t seen a night sky like this since trekking in Nepal in 2009. Amazing what a lack of light pollution can reveal.

- Reposted by Cathy BrownReminder: They're trying to demoralize you, and they're doing a great job of it. Part of resisting is making time for joy despite the attempts to make you feel this is not the time for it. Love your people. Dig the art that speaks to you. Go to the places where life flows into you. You deserve joy.

- Over years, I made lots of granny squares before boredom set in on each project. A pal finally offered to crochet them into a blanket for me. It took me 18 months to remember to find them & another year to take them 5 minutes up the road and drop them off… picked the blanket up today. #proud #ADHD

- I’ve tidied AND dusted AND hoovered the bedroom. Unless you know what an #ADHD bedroom has the potential to be like, this will seem like an inconsequential thing. I even put John’s laundry away (but only after I managed to do mine). #allevening #floordrobe #dogsofbluesky
