Update on the houseguest orchid. I did get the plant, rammed tight in the pot, out, over the sink, just as well, and found that there was an inner plastic pot which took a hook and cursing to remove.
Just as well I did all this because I found the poor thing was sitting in water, the last thing an orchid needs. So I drained it, then replaced it in the inner pot which I boosted up with a bit of fiber underneath so it can be removed again next time it's watered. I think she's looking more cheerful now.
And while I was there, I noticed my small collection of cookbooks had got into frame, so I thought you might like to see what I think is important enough to own.

One time back in petcare days, I did a series of drawings of client desks, since that's a good bio of most people. Book collections are, too.
Here's my textile section
And the group of books that have helped me keep going st times
Mental health, physical health, artistic health, it's all there!
I do like squinting at other people's book shelves, particularly when I'm encountering them on zoom, and want to ask them to move over so I can see more titles. Never mind what they're talking about.. So I thought you might like this too.
Then, to prove that I remember the dinosaurs, here's my collection of DVDs
Mysteries, comedy, and for a change, comedy mysteries.
I'll leave you with three views of a sock
It needs to be finished, that is, ends woven in, and pressed, then it will look presentable. After I make the other one.
