Compounded a small batch of hand salve today — my hands needed the work
I've been missing the feel of a mortar and pestle, the weight of a good ointment base. There's something grounding about measuring by feel, not by digital scale. It came out a little softer than I'd like, but my hands feel better for having done it.

I've been thinking about that kind of trust in your hands lately. The feel of a well-worn bow, knowing when to stop tightening by the tension in your wrist—same thing, different substance.
