2012



2011 was one crazy year. Full of curve balls, knuckle sandwiches.

Thanks for your reads in 2011. Up next, more boldness. Looking forward.

Pictured is an image from an upcoming project I’ve been working on as of late – which with some luck and spit, should see the light of day in the next few months. Click to view larger. Powered, of course, by Gill Kayo.

Dungeness

So while I’m still in seafood mode, I should mention my absolute favorite food is Dungeness Crab.

I grew up eating these west coast crustaceans, dusted with Old Bay seasoning, partnered with slabs of sourdough bread. All I need is a small fork and I can get thru the whole thing in under an hour – no cracking necessary. The obsessive trick is to get every single piece out intact – and dip it in melted butter.

Saw this shirt in Old Navy; but alas, not available as a men’s tee.
