Today's hobby is knitting! This is a hobby I only

Today's hobby is knitting! This is a hobby I only picked up recently after being inspired by a video on Youtube by @Kutovakika. The project pictured here is the Saturday Brunch Sweater! I was first introduced to knitting by my grandma when I was younger - she was an avid knitter and embroiderer. I learned a bit from her but then forgot all about it. Later on in my teenage years, I took up crochet, which still remains one of my core hobbies! Coming from crochet, what I've been most surprised by is how different a knitted fabric feels - it's looser, softer, and more drapey, while crocheted items tend to be firmer and have more structure. I honestly love the feel of knitted fabric! This is my 3rd knit project and I hope I'll finish it by the time colder weather rolls around again later this year - I know wearing a sweater I made myself from scratch will make the experience extra special ❤️ Are you working on any creative projects right now?

Another one of my hobbies is gaming! There is something so magical and exciting about exploring and immersing yourself in a fantasy world that is unlike anything that exists in reality...one of my favorite games ever is The Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild. Nestled deep in the mountains, there's a small village in BOTW called Kakariko village - to me, it's one of the coziest and most beautiful places ever - I wish I could live in Kakariko village! What's your favorite video game and if you play BOTW, what's your favorite place in the game? #zelda #nintendo #link #nintendoswitch #thelegendofzelda #legendofzelda #botw #breathofthewild #mario #videogames #gaming #gamer #totk #tearsofthekingdom #zeldabreathofthewild #loz #ocarinaoftime #hyrule #switch #majorasmask #art #twilightprincess #skywardsword #games #hobbies #photooftheday #creativity #imagination #fantasy #fantasyworld

One of my hobbies is playing the kalimba. I love the enchanting chimes of this instrument - it fills me with a sense of tranquility. Sometimes I like to play it before I go to sleep at night. Sometimes I try to play specific songs on it, but more often than not, I just mess around with it with no end goal in mind, no expectation that the music I produce should sound a certain way - I just let myself flow with the music, reveling in the beauty of every note. I think it's so incredibly important to have hobbies in life. Our world is based around capital and the reduction of people into objects of labor. In a world designed to rob us of our creativity and life-force, in a world which alienates us from every aspect of what it means to be human, it's life-reaffirming to spend your time pursuing creative interests. It's life-affirming to let your inner child out, to let yourself play around with your environment, the objects in them, and with your own creative spirit. The best part about hobbies is that there are literally thousands of them out there! What are your favorite hobbies?

My healthy go-to meal when I don't feel like cooking: Chickpea "Chicken Salad" Toast. For a twist, I added in some curry powder, coriander powder, and a touch of chili powder to the mix, and then I topped off the whole thing with my favorite condiment on the planet - tapatio. I served it with two cutie tangerines 🍊🍊 for some fruit. My favorite thing about this recipe is how easy and quick it is to put together - it takes less than 5 minutes to bring together this protein-rich meal. And best of all? It's so good! The recipe video is on my YouTube channel if anyone wants to make this 🥪 💚 #healthyrecipes #healthyfood #healthylifestyle #healthy #healthyeating #healthyrecipes #food #foodie #recipe #healthybreakfast #healthyliving #vegan #foodporn #nutrition #instafood #foodblogger #health #foodphotography #fitness #easyrecipe #healthycooking #healthyfoodideas #healthymeals #easyrecipes #healthydinner #recipes #glutenfree #yummy #cleaneating

This was one of my top 3 favorite meals I've ever

This was one of my top 3 favorite meals I've ever made! The best part? I winged every single dish (no recipes) and shockingly, everything turned out delicious. I made an Asian cucumber salad, a vegan beef and mushroom stir fry with chinese five spice, a spicy potato dish inspired by my favorite local Chinese restaurant, a gochujang tofu side dish, and some jasmine rice. One of my favorite things about Chinese and many other Asian cuisines is how you make a bunch of different dishes and then you get to have a delicious meal full of variety, nutritional ingredients, and flavor! There's something really wholesome about family-style dining. Also, I find that taking the time to make my meal aesthetic by setting up the table with cute dishes and utensils really enhances the entire experience and takes it from just an everyday average meal, to something special. It's the simple little things that romanticize your life and add a splash of magic into the bucket of your day ✨️ #chinesefood #aestheticfood #delicious
