Thank you for your support and hope your week is amazing!! ❤️
I felt so sad to read that no one bakes you a cake, my dear George, so this one's all for you!!! Made by moi with lots of delicious chocolate and colourful sprinkles to cheer you up ☺☺☺
Have a great and very sweet Saturday, my dear friend!
And to everyone else, a wonderful weekend, too!
When I switched to Linux, the tracking system on my equatorial mount stopped working (it was also very basic and never worked perfectly). So I decided to recycle the reusable components and build a homemade one. In Argentina, a GoTo system for an EQ3 mount like mine costs around $1000 USD, so making a homemade one was worthwhile. With the help of the AI assistant Copilot and after watching some YouTube tutorials, I acquired an ESP32S microcontroller, two DRV8825 drivers, a 12V input/5V output step-down power supply, some capacitors, a PCB, and some cables for the NEMA17 motors (I reused the motors, among other things, and lengthened the cables since the old ones were too short). And that was it! I spent about $50 USD on this! The difference is amazing! I downloaded the OnStep project (authored by Howard Dutton), which is open source (github.com/hjd1964/OnStep), and compiled a minimal version for now. I assembled everything in a small box that used to be a car first-aid kit, haha! Controlled from KStars with INDI/Ekos for Linux, it turned out to be very functional and complete. Although I still need to test it at night with Plate Solving for GoTo, today I was able to do a very basic test, pointing it at the Sun, as you can see in the video.
My Maksutov-Cassegrain f/15 telescope and Player One Neptune-M camera are mounted there, which provides significant magnification, and although I did an indoor test with a basic polar alignment, my OnStep system worked wonderfully! I am very pleased with the work done and I encourage those who need a GoTo system to make one themselves, because although it involves some work, the cost is significantly less than buying one or having one made, and the learning experience is invaluable.

Plastic balls, acrylic paints and grandchildren ended up being a winning combination. Every year that I unearth the Christmas ornaments, I'm transported back in time.
For Looking Close…on Friday theme of “Homemade” a dress I made several years ago for this Madame Alexander doll.
Delicious dark chocolate coating on these small decorative vegan chocolate pastries.
My choice for the theme REDUX 2020 - "Chocolate"
Happy MM
A tradition at our home is to make a gingerbread house for christmas. One of my daughters made it - I just smelled it. LOL P1120792
Both my grandmothers sewed - homemade treasures from the heart, hand crafted with love.
This quilt my maternal grandmother made and gifted to my parents as a wedding gift in the 50s.
After Mom moved to assisted living, she would look at the quilt and remember her Mama.
While walking along a local river we came across a tree that had been gnawed on by beavers. Those shavings reminded me of feathers so we collected a small bag-full and used them to create bird sculptures. My grand kids used a glue gun to layer the wood chips over a large paper egg (used as a body form). Eyes were made of either a couple of beads or small clam shells from the river shore.

😄Thanks for views,faves and comments😄
A hand-tied fishing fly. I forgot to ask my husband what it’s called. If I find out, I’ll add the name later.
I made this delicious pie with homegrown blackberries from my son's garden.
Happy Birthday, Peter! Enjoy!

ps i'm not recommending any of these cookery adventures. they suit my taste. photographing to encourage myself to eat more healthily
www.flickr.com/groups/cooking_is_my_hobby/ helps to gather ideas and encourages me to continue with healthy eating by learning from others if you're interested in cooking, sometimes or a lot, or enjoy the cooking of others, you're always welcome ...
... homemade. The lime juice and zest make all the difference ... Mmmmm!
Taste a larger spoonful - it's even sweeter!
Having a meal at the Bakaliko Taverna in the evening, this lad sailed past us on his homemade boat. I think he was going fishing but I'm not sure how successful his trip was unfortunately.
Panettone is an Italian Sweet Bread. I decided to make some and will make another loaf with modifications. This tasted good.
Muffins, to stave off the Beast from the East!
Recipe:
1 egg
1 cup of white yoghurt (I used low/no fat greek)
1/3 cup of oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Mix all in a bowl then add the following:
Preheat oven to 190c
2 cups of plain flour
1/2 cup sugar (I used half spoon sugar)
1 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
------------
Extra: Add chocolate chips, or blueberries, or whatever you like!
Bake for 18 mins
I find this fills out a dozen muffin cases.
I FINALLY came up with an idea to use the old pan lids that we seem to have accrued here. Actually, many of them came in boxes of "junk" from the auctions. It struck me last weekend that they could go into the old fruit and veggie holders that everybody used to have, that hang. Some of the pan lids JUST fit! Now if only the birds will discover this!
I DID test to be sure the rims weren't hot, in case they might burn birdie feet in the heat. They seem okay for now, at our 81F degrees and full sun. I do have a plan to paint the edges in case hotter temps change that! :)
Homemade scones, made yesterday, and Bramble Jam, made last week .... I have to be honest and say that I didn't make either of them, but I will probably eat most!!
