Comfortable Shoes Studio

Comfortable Shoes Studio is the name of my little studio in Beverly, Massachusetts; here I paint large watercolors, smaller acrylics, and mostly bind books and journals. I specialize in custom bound journals and sketchbooks with adhesive-free sewing in which the sewing is visible and decorative on the spine. If you're interested please email me!

536 words so far today. I really like how the goals in @novelpadapp keep me on track and let me know how many words I need per day to get to my goal, but also adjusts the date to motivate me. I'll finish early if I keep this up! #amwriting #writerscommunity #writing #writersofinstagram #lesfic #manuscriptingpod #writers

I'm trying to get better about posting my writing achievements on here. I added 459 words to my nano novel. I realized in this scene that I need to move some stuff around. I also realize that writing without an ouline/plan does not make me happy at all. I'm doing a lot of extra work on this novel since I didn't plan before nano, never again. Still using @novelpadapp and its killer for organizing and helping me to rework this half baked heap of a novel. Full review is upcoming. #amwriting #lesfic #manuscriptingpod #writerscommunity #writersofinstagram #writing #writer #writinginthemorning #wlw #flf #assinchair #fingersonkeys

The broth 12 hours later. Itll simmer the rest of the day while I'm m at work then get divided up into containers for storage. This is a super easy way to use up scraps and bones. #queersteading

Basic chicken broth- one chicken carcass chopped, 3 or so celery stalks, 1 onion cut into mb 8ths, 3 carrots cut into 2 inch or so pieces, 3 cloves of garlic, handful of pepper corns, 1 anise seed, various herbs and bay leaves. Cover with water set on high in the slow cooker for 8 hours, them low for another 10. Overkill? Yes, but this is the best bone broth ever. If I had more time tonight I'd have thrown the carrots and carcass and onions maybe garlic I tot he oven and given then a hot roasting before drenching in water. I'll end up with 3 or 4 quarts of broth from this. Super flavorful and super easy. It'll get paired with some veggies, noodles, and eggs for some soup in a week or 2. I'll freeze some of it.

Happy rainbow-ish popsicles? YES. Still digging these masks @hahnak sent me. Also the haircut is making me super happy. The hair was getting a bit shaggy and I'm stoked to leave the hard part undercut behind and have something more fun and also able to be professional with a different combing and product application. #queerhair #queerAF #gaaaaaaay #wearamask

Ok I know this pick isnt great but. My NaNo novel is now at 62132 words over 1000 of them written today in NovelPad.co (writing a full review on that soon) the tracking in this browser based writing app is great. It really is awesome to help keep me aware of my writing goals and how much work I need to do. Anyway. This story is shaping up nicely. I've gone back and editted a few scenes to get the flow right and correct names.

Saturdays are for coffee. I made a blend of beans from Colombia, Honduras, and Brazil. I've been figuring out how to dial in our espresso machine and I've gotten it figured out. The espresso was wonderful. #espresso #coffee #coffeeroasting

We were supposed to have a.big storm roll through here, but we've gotten mostly rain. But I like to make broth or soup on gross nights like this. This has the last of the Turkey bones and Turkey in it.plus a container of broth fixings I toss into the freezer. When I cook and I have carrot peels, ends of celery, and onion pieces all or that goes into a tub I keep in the freezer. I have another with chicken skin and bones. This had a tub of those scraps, plus a few pieces of fresh celery and a couple of carrots, an onion, garlic, and a handful of spices and ginger. I'm going for a pho like flavor. The house smells like pho. This will get jarred into quart Mason jars while boiling. I may then hot water can it. But if I'm honest this won't need to be canned, well go through it in 2 weeks or so. Im thinking of making another batch of kimchi soup, and this will be great with it. We may also do some pho with it. Or add some miso. Or maybe I'll make some fresh ramen. The possibilities are endless. #foodie #foodporn #futureweeknightmeal #eatgoodfood #citysteading #urbanoasis #noms

When the vending machine is filled with 2 rows of multiple items you have been forsaken by the vending gods. Especially when it's filled with this trash. *grumble*

Playing around with the pogo prints, this time a pic of a pogo print. I plan to share about my pogo print a day project on my blog. While I think I like sharing here is nice I want to put the bulk of info on my blog. Why? I dont know exactly. I feel like my projects need to have a home. I'll do a bit of a post here as well but not as in depth. #polaroidaday #journaling #artplay #artjournal #art #usefuljournaling #RSVPstationerypodcast #penaddict #erasable #stationery

  • Here's a shot of my index for @jeanettehouse when I have a break in what I'm writing about I add a comma then the next page for that topic. Take RSVP discussion questions those are on page 39, 40, 43, and 44 so far. My vision statement ponderings are on page 34-35, 45. I have also set this up very different from the typical #bujo #bulletjournal it is basic because my side hustle needs are different than my work needs. In this case I don't use a daily log, simply a future log with a monthly log with space for a general to do list. I use a future log, monthly log, and daily log at my dayjob. #basicbulletjournal
