learning about cupcakes

well, maybe not cupcakes, but at least we are learning about something involving food. from personally enjoying said sandwiches, i can tell you that they are by far the best meal between two pieces of bread that you could possibly have. in fact, its at least in the top ten meals of all time for me. that's how you know its 'for real'. similar to those in the article, i have taken my own spin on this traditional-colonial dish, adding a bit of this and that. however, nothing i could ever do could top mrs. nguyen's recipe. it is truly a work of art.

unlike my darling to the left, which is not a work of art. yes, i know there are areas that look unfinished and sloppy, i don't care. right now i'm teaching myself photoshop, so i suppose a few errors are to be expected. that and i am trying to flush out the characters in my mind. for instance, does lancelott like blue shirts? does eva wear lipstick? is that cupcake full of poison? you know, the normal character development. in addition to the acceptance of putting out work that i don't feel is 'perfect', i'm trying to be laid back about the entire process and not force anything. so if any of you are tracking said progress out there, come back every week and there should be something new and 'improved' for you too see. in the meantime, satiate your cravings by following this. insane...

following up on that link, seems like some retailers are not doing so hot. i have a significant amount of a&f merchandise, primarily gifted to me, and i can say that on the whole its not too bad. then i look at the prices for my shirts with holes in them and something inside of me dies. that's ok though, i didn't need that bit of compassion anyway. besides, i will always have tiny ninjas to teach me things like compassion. who knew that ninjas actually liked pandas?

and, finally, i know that this is not news to most of you who follow our Lord, but i just wanted to let you know that dark days are coming.


peace,
