things i also do
aquascaping
I love aquascaping because it's basically a living art form. Pictured is my UNS 5e paludarium (aquarium + terrarium) stocked with dragon wood, seiryu stone, and tons of anubias + buce + more.
prose + poetry
I'm a big fan of both writing and reading poetry. Some of my favorite authors include Sara Teasdale, Emily Dickinson (letters specifically), and Sappho (John Maxwell Edmonds has an interesting translation).
crochet
I'm the least consistent crocheter ever but I enjoy making clothes for my Build a Bear stuffed frog (pictured left). I've also made stockings, bags, and more.
baking
Mostly gluten-free + dairy-free bakes. Pictured right is a gingerbread cake that has become a yearly tradition. I do this less at college (no kitchen).
