Just Some Tiny Pies

Over a year since I posted : not great. Let's see if I can do a better job of keeping tabs on myself now.

Tovolo Pie Pops set I worked on at my new gig is selling out on Amazon:

Pretty exciting. And here they are at Chef Tools:

Here's some behind the scenes sketch work from the first few weeks of the project.

And here's what we end up with:

Hooray for wrapping things up! Tooling on a few other items (basting and BBQ) will be finished up and shipping in July.

...around a little bit for my friends Aside Oceans. Check 'em out here. No, I mean, like now. 

Dan's the Man (and Paul, too).

It must be pretty nice to be funny and charismatic.

I wish I was working on projects like this. In the mean time, I'll fake//make 'em up.

Read on only if you're super interested in where I found the images.

Sew-So

Trying to figure out a sewing project for this weekend. Got it.

Need:

dark grey for pockets/tabs/hood liner

grey thread

bows (or not)

to unpack my machine and find my straight pins (eff)

So gentlemanly.

Q: What do I like more than a nature-inspired, larger than life installation? 
A: One that you can climb inside of.

Get'cha s'more here.

I must be the Grinch.

Another little slice of my Christmas joy {fail}. Then again, I like to pick out my own stuff.

Thanks Ben Sherman for making really beautiful clothes; Christmas isn't ruined after all.

Made ^^ to support the following fail:

A. Forgot to book a ticket for a work trip to Vegas.

B. Found out I was supposed to fly to LA instead. 

C. Booked two one way flights; saving money because it's almost last minute.

D. TWO FAILS = WIN.

Wanna see the rest of the tree pictures that formed these little composites?

Christmas // TRON&*!#&^%$*!!

I've been pretty good about keeping busy doing/making things since leaving the Facebook quicksand [except that I've been perfectly terrible at posting anything at all.] I'll recap more with photos on Flickr later, but I wanted to post some Christmas-time stuff NOW!


One version of a pattern for some TRON inspired paper Christmas Ornaments.

Lots more holiday magic after the jump >>>

Raw data v. Fatebook

I've used Daytum a few times to keep track of silly things (book pages read vs minutes of movies watched) but NOW I'm hoping to use it as a tool to help me record the effects of my (temporary) life-cleanse.

It's such a beautiful website, and makes charts and graphs that I wish I could eat. 


Also, in support of my little Facebook rebellion, here's this.

Hello, it's been a while.

But we're going to change that. 

In an attempt to make my online presence a bit more meaningful and a lot less distracting, I'm ditching facebook for a while and will be posting lots more fun things HERE. 

 

Here's a preview/cover of my next post/pdf for my friend miss AJA.

Vegan Orange and Chocolate Cake, Coffee Cake, Muffins, Quick Breads, Brownies, Icings, Raspberry Granola Bars, and more. 

Sharpies were made for this.

I had some fun sharpie-ing a piece of posterboard and then playing in Photoshop to make a poster for my dear friends The Okay Feeling.

FYI

At work, Nico [[probably mocking me]] said 

"negativity does not equal creativity"

 and I had to make a fun little graphic thing out of it. So there it was.
