TIL that buckwheat contains more protein than most beans (13% vs. ~8-9% except soybeans which are 18%) Lotus seeds also beat both (except soybeans) with 18% protein

New project in the works… keeping it mysterious for now; any guesses what it will be? I just really love these colors together 🥰 #yarn #crochet #grownostr

I painted a wooden box for Sophia and I’m fairly proud of it! I got this pre-carved unfinished wood box from the home goods section of Hobby Lobby. It’s a bit higher quality than many unfinished wood boxes at craft stores, especially the hinge. In acrylic, I usually use cyan (thalo blue), magenta (thio violet), and yellow (cadmium yellow medium hue) along with white and black (titanium and mars). Making this box, I experimented with progressively mixing the color, i.e., making the next color by adding paint to the previously mixed color. My thought was this would lead to nicely earthy, complex, harmonious colors. I diluted all with water to give a muted, stained wood effect. I blended up white —> yellow —> pink —> blue —> violet —> green. I also added accent lines of iridescent gold. This was a fun way to do things, an interesting experience! But best of all, Sophia seems to really like it 🥰 she’s still in a “open and shut things” and “put things in containers” phase, so it’s a great gift for her right now that she can keep growing into. #painting #art #artstr #acrylic #box #baby #nostrbaby #cute #grownostr

Felt like looking up the first lines of various classical literature and folktales today Ummmmm I’m pretty sure the real thing is not this long or repetitive 😂 what is up with Brave summary AI?

What are one or two things about the upcoming generations (any generations under 18 years) that make you hopeful and excited for the future? Not “they’ll grow up fluent in such and such technology” or anything like that; actual attributes you see in young people that give you hope. #asknostr #kids #family #grownostr
