This is such a wonderful, creative, and whimsical list! Will definitely try to do some of these in the new year.

I'm learning armored combat/sword fighting this year with my local SCA barony! It'll be nice to finally take up a sport, however nerdy it is, and make new friends. Maybe I'll even go to this medieval arts and sciences convention we have later this month! I love learning new things, and what better way to discover new analog things than to go somewhere like that?

Such a delightful list!! The first one is my favorite. I made this bag in 2007ish and it’s still one of my favorite things I’ve ever made πŸ’–πŸ§΅πŸͺ‘

My husband and I used to go to the art gallery on dates. Last year was wildly busy but I hope we have more time for that this year
