Hi, I'm Megan. I live in Seattle with Scott. I make stuff and give you tutorials on how to make it too. I also keep track of what I'm up to and post links to good stuff from all over.
Lately I've been traveling to the UK, getting through the dark months by indulging in video games and experiencing life with a microwave after not having one for over a decade. You can also find me at Twitter, Flickr, Ravelry, Facebook, Pinterest and Instagram. More about me and all this.
New! I've just started writing over at Babble Voices, go see my stuff at Future Imperfect.

Yay!
First, I’ve been reading your blog since I lived in Vermont and you lived in California, then I moved to Seattle, then back to Canada around the time you moved to Seattle. You keep a great blog. Thanks.
The actual reason for this note is that my computer crashed and I lost most of my web bookmarks – including my new discovery of “make something”. Thanks to your link – I have found Karyn again. Fun.
Ta-da. I love reading about the goings-on in Seattle – and hope that you are enjoying the spring blooms.
Best,
Andrea

Ooh, the dry hops article is pretty interesting. I don’t drink beer, though I have loved my experiments in making hard lemonade. I think there are a few spices I can use in a similar fashion for other fermented beverages.
