30something homebody & 18th-19th c. (dress) history nerd. Chocolate & cake enthusiast. I like sewing, drawing, paper & textile crafts, reading, rabbits, Star Trek (TNG is my fav!), etc. Currently writing my MA thesis on women in the Viennese dressmaking trade ca. 1810-50.

I live with 2 rabbit girls: Marigold (born in April/May 2021, rescued & adopted in Feb. 2023) & Mirabelle (born in Jan. 2024, adopted in April 2024).

I am craving a good letter subscription... subscription boxes are a bit much, but I would love some surprise snail mail. Why are there no #folklore based mail subscriptions?...

@TarkabarkaHolgy Right?? That's probably why I keep ordering little stationery items, postcards and bookmarks, stickers or art prints,... from artists and small businesses. They often come in pretty envelopes, too! I just love receiving letters.

Richly gifted by . "Pierre de Ronsard" . This climbing rose from 1985 imitated historic roses and has a wonderful old-style scent of fruity flowers with a note of honey. In high humidity it is nearly white-greenish, in dry weather it opens pink. In Germany it is known as Eden 85 rose.

The same, different perspective

Hello, new followers! I'm currently writing my MA thesis on women in the Viennese trade ca. 1810-1850, and I talk about the writing progress a bit, using the hashtag .

I'm a creative person who's into drawing and painting and all kinds of paper and textile , mainly . I love history and the detective work of research; I'm also interested in historical sewing.

I love and am an avid reader, my preferred genres are historical fiction, mystery, sci-fi and fantasy, also a little horror (ghost stories). Currently reading Star Trek TNG novels.

I enjoy baking and eating cake, occasionally. Last but not least, I like , wildflowers and herbs, bees, rainy days and autumn, being at home and having tea.

I live with a black named Marigold. She's a rescue and needs medical treatment due to her former living conditions, but is a happy and very affectionate bun. I post about her, her healing progress, and her shenanigans. 🐇

Today I got really kind feedback on my draft from a colleague (who is the best, btw). People liking and complimenting my writing is motivating me a great deal.
What also motivates me: Marigold being there. Her just sitting nearby, dozing, calms me down and helps me focus somehow. 10/10 for the four-legged research assistant. 🐰 💕
