This is day ten of The Artfully Wild Blogalong. You can find out more here.
On Monday, my son came over for dinner, and I made this:
This is spaghetti squash, cut in half and baked until done, scooped, and then stuffed with it’s own innards, which I stirred into a rich, hearty meat sauce. I covered it with a shredded Italian cheese blend, and put in the oven until the cheese melted.
It was easy, and delicious. There were no leftovers. :)
He was feeling pretty ganked (my word for off) due to over caffeinating + stuff at work, so we skipped the usual watching of things and listened to music instead.
We had a good visit, and I sent him home with a metric butt tonne of leftover Chinese food, because The Food Bank of Mom is a thing around here.
I love feeding and taking care of my people. I’m honestly not sure who gets more out of it, me or them.

I’m behind on all the things because writing practice has taken over my life, but I spent yesterday getting somewhat caught up. A Year Of Rumi is filmed. I just have to do 8 hours or so of post production required to make a good lesson (photographs, screen shots, writing up the musings and the walkthrough, creating the PDF, compressing the videos so they don’t take up too much room on your hard drive, building the classroom so that everything is embedded and available for download, etc.), and that will come out in both the year long and Patreon version on Friday. I really love what I’m working on.
This is so full of little gold details, so the photograph just doesn’t do it justice. It’s lush, and those little heart shaped birdies make me ridiculously happy.
It’s a busy week for me, though, so that’s all I’ve got for now.
See you tomorrow.
YUM! My mouth is watering. It is fun to feed people isn’t it. I like to do that too. <3
I love it so much. I love watching people eat my food, too.
ooh, I make spagetti squash with meat sauce when my daughter wants noodles, but this, this must be tried next time!
And also, I’m so glad I’m in a year of rumi! I LOVE that painting! I hope the post production work goes super smoothly for you.
Almost done. YAY!
The squash looks the delicious!!! I’m the only one around here who likes it. But maybe I can try a small one made like this and then I’ll have 2 servings!! :)
That’s a beautiful Rumi quote, but then aren’t they all. And of course so is the page <3
That squash looks delicious. I must try it! You sound busy, but good busy.
I can never make spaghetti squash correct! I love how good that looks!!! I am still amazed at how much you get done for us! And those BIRDS!!!!! SWOONING!
I could eat that squash right now! I prepped a chicken, mushroom and cider casserole to have with mash and broccoli for tea and we’re just back from a walk. It’s lovely to sit down and catch up with you in blogland. Hope all the stuff that comes after the making of the art is going smoothly and swiftly…those birds are awesome cute!
That looks really good (the food). I love your little birds (the art). ????
