Eat Delicious Food

The mantra for this season. The idea of "healthy" eating is out the window. Lots of eggs and sausage, cookies and cupcakes, steak and potatoes (with lots of butter).

Culinary Mandala

This was inspired after visiting the Craft and Folk Art Museum in Los Angeles and seeing Jennifer Angus' creative displays of exotic insects. Just stamps and tombow markers in 15 minutes.
