The answer to the #WhatsItWednesday question today (which nobody correctly identified): it’s a toothpaste dispenser in our bathroom. Works really well, except when the tube is almost empty. (Appropriate today as I went to the dentist for a cleaning.)

As for the @dejal header, in addition to being green now, it is simplified to just three items, and the Apps item now shows a menu of my apps (or click the Apps link to go to the Apps page). That lets me remove the apps from the sidebars, and later the sidebars themselves.

Puffy pepperoni pizza. I’m currently experimenting with 4-night cold proofing; I divide and feed my sourdough starter on Wednesday, and feed the countertop copy again that night, then prepare the pizza dough on Thursday, putting in the fridge till Monday. 🍕

My stack of clear corrugated panels for the bee shed project blew around a bit in a recent storm; I’ve now re-stacked and weighed them down. I’ve had these materials since April; one day I’ll get around to working on that project. 🔨
