Loveonaut coming in for a landing

 


I drew this after a class on self-love, which I always thought was kinda hokey, but turns out is actually legit healthy. Loveonaut Amanda hopes all of your love tanks are full, even when you feel lost in space!

Insider secret

Pro tip: You want the best coffee in this hood? Skip the coffee shops, the bakeries, the bodegas...it's hiding at the cookie store! Total undercover yumminess.

 

Life's important questions


When I started this I was really unsure if a pear could actually wear a tutu without looking stupid, but I nonetheless threw caution to the wind and forged bravely ahead. And, lo and behold, I am pleased to invite you all to my cutie fruity ballet!

 

New School Year


 

Here's hoping this can be the start of a great year, even for those of us who don't have little nuggets trotting off to school! 

Snail life is the life for me


Snails have this whole thing figured out, you guys. Who would not want to bop around attached to a portable (and adorable!) antisocial nap hut?

 

Carb Loading

 

The bakery didn't have the strawberry cream cheese I ordered for my bagel so they took pity on my grave carb misfortune and gave me the bagel AND a donut AND a muffin for free!!

In shape...potato shape!


So proud of those of you triumphantly posting about your runs, hikes, workouts, etc, but if anyone else wants to join me over here in the couch potato club, membership is free and you're always welcome!

 

ZZZ...


Happy labor day, friends! I know that some of us deeply need less labor and some of us are desperate for more, but I hope that today is restful in some way for everyone. πŸ’•

 

So cute


 Guys, there is a really, REALLY cute giant stuffed candy corn at the corner drugstore and so far I have resisted, but I can't make any promises.

Won't you be my neighbor


 πŸŽ΅It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood...🎡

so cozy


 An ode to weighted blankets and cuddly kitties

Room with a view


 The view from my little hospital room was pretty spectacular yesterday 🌈🌈🌈

Yum


 Bakery Near My House has a pretty adorable new cream puff!

Still Standing


 My neighborhood has worked so hard to stay afloat these past few months, and I am so proud of both its resiliency and adorableness.

Mask Up

 


My friend's mom sewed me a beautiful mask, and it even has a wire nosepiece, adjustable straps, and a filter pocket! So fancy!

With peanut butter!


My friends made me chocolate chip pancakes!! (Which I didn't actually eat with my hands, but cartoon Amanda does what she wants.) 

Still friends!

 

There are many friends I haven't gotten to see in forever because of COVID, but fortunately they still give me their love over the internet. πŸ₯°

Sidewalk chalk!

 


Discovered that my mom still had the sidewalk chalk from when I was a little Amanda, so behold, yesterday's driveway masterpiece.

Toasty!

 


I love a good bonfire (yum, burnt marshmallows!), so when I came to visit, my brother built me one!

My hero

 

My light-up rainbow bubble tea keychain broke, but my dad saved the day and fixed it for me! ❤️
