Just brain doodling. I like this better than a journal, I can have links to cool stuff that I don't want to forget and pictures and possibly art work if I ever start painting again.

Mine was the first drawing. Hey, it's hard to draw using only the paintbrush program and your finger on a touchpad. It actually seems to work better if you don't try too hard to make a good drawing.

Very cool ghost. I'm thinking it would be wonderful yard art anytime and you could grow vines up it and have a topiary.

The eyeball is made with a canned lychee stuffed with strawberry or raspberry prserves and a blueberry stuck in the blossom end then skewered with a sword olive pick. I think I'll make Sarah a non-alchoholic one of these maybe with 7up with a little red food coloring or a bit of the floating preserves. The eyeball looks pretty effective. I can get canned Lychees at the big asian market up the street.

Very nice site on how to do layered drinks. Apparently the higher the alchohol content the higher it floats in the drink.

Apparently someone is giving these religious tracts out to Halloween trick or treaters. Talk about a dirty trick. Sounds like a good way to get your house egged to me.

And a Frankenstein Tamale Pie to go with her.

(We tried the talmale pie, it was good. It turned out cute too but I forgot to take a picture.
Tombstone Brownies. More of an inspiration thing. I'm thinking ditch the frosting and have little skeletal hands reaching out, maybe out of frosting.

Nutter Butter Mummies. Unfortunately no picture but they sound cute.

Really great instructions for how to make tombstones out of the foam insulation boards you can get at the big box hardware stores. Lots of tips and ideas. Don't forget to check out her gallery of tombstones she's made. Fantastic ideas and she tells you exactly how to get the effects.

I love this. It's a bunch of games to help you learn anatomy. Poke a muscle is my favorite. It's hysterical, especially when you don't get them all.
