First trip of 2024. Let’s do this. ✈️😷

We already have a decent @moominofficial cup collection, but I couldn’t resist two more… for Kristy and the Snook. ❤️☕️☕️

TFW you realise the rental apartment you’re about to inspect is right around the corner from @a.p.bread… 😍

The New Year’s resolution to ride to work is going GREAT. 😅💦

Absolutely amazing job today by my colleague @donnieprakoso at the @amazonwebservices Builders Online keynote! We covered recent re:Invent announcements on Compute and Storage, Generative AI (with lots of demos from Donnie!), Data Analytics, and Cost Optimisation. #suchapro Thanks to the production team (and @bek.dotty) for making us look so great!

After a year’s hiatus, it’s almost that time again… 🧦 🐵

In early December I was having a bad day, and on my way home from the shops I saw these @hellokitty tumblers at @gotcha_broadway. I decided to treat myself. It wasn’t cheap, but it’s well-made, the insulation keeps my drinks cool, and it makes me so happy. (And also, hydrated. 😂) #fridayjoy 💜

I managed to snag a pair of jeans on something and rip a small hole, so last night I ironed on a patch and fired up my #sewing machine to darn over it. “Hang on,” I thought. “Doesn’t this fancy machine have some darning function?” IT DOES. It uses the automatic buttonhole foot (?!) and sews a custom length back-and-forth dense grid of stitches. You’re meant to then sew another at right angles. I didn’t get them perfectly placed, but it’s fine for a first attempt. This function will definitely be used again! #mending

Dinner tonight: @seriouseats Halal Cart-Style Chicken and Rice. Well worth setting off all the smoke alarms!

My sister told me that my 15yo niece Indie was embroidering her own sneakers. “Cool,” I said, remembering how I used to doodle on mine. Then they sent me the photos. 🤯 They are STUNNING. Look at that. A TEENAGER DID THAT. 😍🐝🌸 #embroidery #embroidered #converse
