 Remembering a Blathering I posted a while back, my friend Merav mailed these to me after she came across them in a Japanese food store. I was VERY excited when I opened the package. Kit Kat is one of my favourite chocolate bars, and I've been wistful that relatively few of the other 149 or so flavours seem to be available in Toronto. But back to my happypackage...so far I've tried the Banana mini Kit Kats and they are FANTASTIC. Thank you, Merav! Speaking of Kit Kats, nelladarren created the highly amusing image below after reading my post about Kit Kats and squirrels. :-)  And here's a lovely cartoon created by hsifyppah a while ago:  Ironic, really, considering my current situation. Yesterday I discovered that the Dirty/Clean acrylics sign I had created for our washing machine was a dismal failure. Though the wire went nicely over the handle, I discovered it fell off every time I opened the dishwasher.  Here's the other side of the sign:  I posted in Livejournal, asking if anyone wanted it for free, and I was delighted when Debbi Michiko Florence posted. Debbie's a children's book author who is currently working on a book about China. She also posted about oshogatsu celebrations with many drool-worthy photos in her LJ recently. Anyway, after useful advice from Melissa and help from Jeff, I created some more: 
The acrylics and ink drawings were fun to do, but the taping part was far too finicky and time-intensive for me to want to do this very often. I'm keeping the one on the left, donating the one of the right to the Interfilk auction at GAfilk, and will probably put the middle two in my Etsy shop next week.
From his About page: "Literature & Latte is one guy with lofty writerly ambitions, who has written a piece of software designed to aid in the process of writing (I know that makes me a geek, but that's something I have to live with)." Unlike many bigger companies, Keith is constantly working to improve his product, listens to user feedback, and is involved with his online community of users. I hope he makes a bundle off Scrivener; he certainly deserves it. Just a few days left until GAfilk! I've decided not to take my laptop. I'm at a stage in my graphic novel script that I can just as easily work on it offline ... yes, with (*gasp) paper and (*gasp) pen! The lack of a delete key is a frightening hurdle, to be sure, but I will endure the hardship for my art... | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
