I've been teaching scratch as an extra curricular for elementary students for a little over a year. I've taught 10 year olds basic algorithm stuff with it (boolean, if/then) and basic game dev patterns (event loop, signal/listener) with some success. I have had no success with 6 year olds (granted my attention was divided) but the nice thing is that they were content to use it as paint and drag sprites around.

    A bit fiddly for sure. I threaded sewing thread through the stitches in the cast off. It wasn't very secure so I glued the back of the stitches. Not sure if that was the best method but it feels better now ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿปโ€โ™‚๏ธ

    This is my second ever finished project! I learned how to knit in December and I've been obsessed. I planned out the overall idea for this handbag and then improvised once I got started. I'm absolutely thrilled with the result. Right now I'm debating on whether to give this to my wife or keep it for myself even though I don't think I'll use it often. Yarn is James C Brett Marble, knitted on 4.5 mm needles

    Sometimes for a late night snack I'll do a tube of silken tofu with soy sauce and chili oil. Very few calories, a few grams of protein, and it feels kind of nice and refreshing out of the fridge. Basically works with any seasoning too
