✴️Rek's highlights of 2023✴️ - Learned to re-wire a boat (DC/AC) This year, on Christmas eve, we made some dumplings with a millet tourtière filling! It was EXCELLENT! Rabbits on a morning walk in North Saanich. They'd planned to walk on the beach that day but the tide was too high, the water had swallowed the bottom of the stairs. It is one hell of a coincidence... but both Busy Doing Nothing and Wiktopher are exactly 237 pages long. What... does.. it... MEAN?! :moomin_what:   Just received my test copy of the printed version of Wiktopher *o*! It looks amazing! I just have a few details to fix before release~

:moomin_flower: The paperback version is now available :>! :moomin_flower2: Waa, super excited :moomin_sparkles: Before and after! Started working on the backrests for the saloon. It is the most complex fabric project Ive ever done. The foam has a wooden backing, had to leave holes for the ball catch and the two hinges, the bottom of the cushion has a seamed zipper(so the cover is removable), and the foam is thicker at the bottom than at the top. Now I gatta repeat this process 4 more times 😅

 I messed a few things up on this first try but it doesn't show, only if you look closely, hehe ^^. I don't have a ton of sewing machine experience, the stitching isn't always straight. The zipper plaque was a bit too narrow, getting the backing board in was super tough (will make zipper longer on other back rests). I'll document what I had trouble with when I have a bit more time. As always, I'll put it up on our wiki.  @rek Thanks for sharing this! I've been interested in vacuum solar for a long time, but I think this pushes me over the edge to buy one.  @rek side question but i saw the mention of cooking soy beans Just released the list of changes to the Hundredrabbits projects for November! T'was a busy, busy month! Suraj G. recently asked to use the little wonky font(of my handwriting) I did for my comic Hakum, and sent me a photo of what its being used for. This is a framed e-ink display with a battery operated Raspberry Pi mounted to the back. Everyday it refreshes with a new random quote. So cool, haha~! :moomin_flower2: Wiktopher is finally finished :moomin_flower2: I loved spending time in that world, I hope you will too!

Btw, in the next month or so I will likely be pushing a lot of changes to this book(so keep an eye on Itch.io if you want the latest changes, the versions are numbered). Me and Dev have had eyes on the manuscript for a long time, and at this point there are mistakes we just don't see. If you find any mistakes, kindly let us know :>. We're not professionals, we just like worldbuilding, and editing/typesetting books.  Wahoo~ new saloon cushioooons! They're SO plump...!

I don't know why but I never realized what the fundamental difference was between eatable and edible. I just realized I've been using the word eatable in all situations. eatable: able to be eaten, with acceptable taste

 @rek i may have to update my  Just finished changing the keyboard on an 11in Macbook Air 2013. Went well! The cover of Thousand Rooms in Solresol. "Solfasol Remisolla" is the name of the book in Solresol. Devine did the translation(with help from ppl from the Solresol community), and I'm putting the notes on a staff :>... Made some very mild kimchi :P! Cabbage is super expensive at the grocery store nowadays, but bought 2 large ones on special this week. Really pays to look at flyers for times when produce is cheaper :>!  @rek I've been making kimchi a lot these days too... and lactofermented hot sauce! we had a lot of cabbage from our csa and had like 5lbs of hot peppers dropped off to us from a friend. haven't tried buying either yet, but def believe you. prices are unbelievable, and they've started locking up the dumpsters. -_- When I draw comics I tend to write text by hand, but my hand letter work is a bit inconsistent, so I decided to make a font out of my handwriting! First time making a font. Was inspired by Lizbeth(who's also working on a lovely font rn).
