May Cornucopia

May was no doubt filled with all sorts of flowers and at least several lovely days spent entirely outside. Then there was the time spent inside, online reading, learning and enjoying. That's what this list is, hope you find something useful or interesting here too.

If you're looking for a 100 Day project, this free 100 Day Stitch Book project looks like a good one to try out. I love the super clever assembly of the stitched pages into a book.

The movie, Dust Bunny is one of the most original ideas I've seen onscreen in a long time. It truly made me wonder how it ever got green-lit, but it is as if Roald Dahl and Tim Burton got to make their own version of The Professional. Truly beautiful set design and costumes as well.

This link to an accessible database of all 5,000 episodes of Sir Richard Attenborough's nature tv show episodes is really something. What an amazing collection and resource.

I've been going to PT lately for my right wrist, so I was really happy to see a self hand massage video from quilter Heidi Parkes. It's great information, and wow, does this massage really feel nice.

Two of my favorite comedians have HBO specials (a big deal in the comedy world), and I'm unreasonably pleased for both of them. Josh Johnson, and Chris Fleming. Really worth a watch, especially if you need a good laugh.

Great books read this month included, the audio book version of Hamnet read by the now Oscar winning actress, Jessie Buckley who played the main character of Agnes in the movie version, it literally made me cry while I was driving.  Also the story of Cinderella retold from the "evil stepmother's" POV, Lady Tremaine was very very good. And in non-fiction, We The People: A History of the U.S. Constitution by Jill Lepore is terribly interesting and so easy to read for a non-lawyer, I'm almost done reading it and I feel like I've learned so much.

I listen to a lot of podcasts, and I've been enjoying Conspiracy, She Wrote. It's an excellent breakdown of current conspiracies that involve or feature women. Sci Fi writer and essayist, Ursula K. LeGuin's blog has been turned into a podcast, In Your Spare Time, All of the various posts are read by all sorts of people.
