    Pupalcopalypse

      This weekend the Ginja Ninja and I were over at the Little House, which I had been using as an office, and we are now renovating for her to live in. The deal is that she had to get her driver’s licence and a car before she moved out, and we’re very close to…

    Weird and Wonderful

      So my friend John Bouler is to blame for this bit of flash fiction. He commented about a vet who specialized in large animals, and cryptids. This thing sprang into my head and demanded to be written. Since I am supposed to be cooking up a storm for Thanksgiving, I am leaving this here…

    Musings on a Femtodragon

    Written by Jason Fuesting, Illustrated by Cedar Sanderson This all started when I was challenged to make an even smaller chainmaille dragon. I made three sizes, and jokingly dubbed them in relationship to a ‘real’ dragon. So the Microdragon (the size currently in my shop, and roughly 4 inches long) is 10^-6 smaller than a…

  • Review: Wild Food!

    Review: Wild Food!

    Vegetarian Wild Game Cookbook by Rick Black My rating: 4 of 5 stars What’s not to like? If you hunt, this will be an invaluable companion for tasty meals from your kill, and plenty of chuckles as you read the introduction. I knocked a star off because it includes raccoon recipes, and we all know…
