Day 165: The Return of Zazzle

Today is my little attempt to get back into making designs for Zazzle. I can't go whole-hog until I re-install all the fonts I used for all my button designs, but making small round things works well enough, since they require minimal adjustment of the original files.

So, in honor of Gay Pride Month, I give you the Homophobia is Gay keychain.

Feel free to purchase one for each of your homophobic pals.

Oh, and I made this as the super fancy keychain, but it can also be bought as a cheapo button keychain, or anything in between.

Day 164: Note-Taking, Kinda

Today I spent 90 minutes online in a WebEx teleconference to learn about an information retrieval program called Dialog. I was given slide copies for following along, so taking notes wasn't really necessary. However, keeping my hands moving helps my brain stay alert, so here are the 'notes' I took.

Day 163: Prosciutto-Wrapped Melon Shot

This seems like a really disgusting idea, both as food and as a drink, but it's surprisingly undisgusting.


This little shot is made of one part bakon vodka wrapped in one part midori melon liqueur.

Day 160: Sushi, Straight from the Oven

Today I made sushi, but I don't think I'll eat it. I made it from polymer clay and baked it. Most sushi isn't baked, I'm pretty sure.





Maybe someday I'll try other kinds of sushi in clay. Or maybe the edible kind.

Day 159: Testing 1 2 3

Today I played around with some new summery blender drinks.

The first tastes like a strawberry Starburst candy, so I shall call it the Strawburst.


The second one was supposed to be a cherry limeade, but it just ended up being Puce Juice.

Day 158: Tilt Shift Experiments

Today I played with a new (to me) iPhone app that does this tilt shift thing that changes focus and perceived distance. I just played around with some photos I already had to see how it works.











I can't wait to try it on different pictures to get that toy/model effect.
