Hobbies?

[NightskyeB4Dawn]

During the whole PLAN-demic, the lockdowns and the oppression of, well, our freedom in general, I decided there was only so much news I could take before I was saturated to the point of insanity.  So, I decided to take up a hobby. 

I collect pencils.

P.S. - If anyone ever has a question about a pencil, or pencils in general, please feel free to ask.  I will do my best to answer your questions, hopefully not boring you into a catatonic state in the process, and tell you about this spellbinding hobby I have.

That is all.

My hobby is cooking/baking... :) 

I don't collect anything but kitchen gadgets.

I envy you.

My 88 y/o mother lives with me, and I terrify her when I walk into the kitchen or laundry room.

She is an extreme separatist. She thinks all colors should b separated and placed in their individual piles. I throw everything into the washer together. Same with the food. She has separate pots and delicate placement of ingredients, spices, and dishes. Me, just one pot. It is all going to end up in the same place together anyway.

So she kicks me out.
