December 13th “Khao Soi Gai”

Many many moons ago, I was fortunate enough to get the chance to go travel through Thailand and Laos. When I was in the northern mountains of Thailand in a wee little town called Pai, I encountered what may be one of the best soups I’ve ever had. It was a a curried noodle soup with chicken legs in it, and despite checking at every thai restaurant I’ve gone to since, I’ve never seen it anywhere. Until now. I picked up a copy of one of the definitive works on thai cooking, and finally made it. It might not be as good as the one the little old lady in Pai sold out of her garage/restaurant, but it was still pretty damn tasty.

The recipe is way to complicated for me to write out here, so I’d suggest you pick up Thai Food by David Thompson. There are no words to describe how awesome and comprehensive this book is.

Plating by the illustrious ladyfriend.

2010|365: A Design Project
In an effort to keep from getting creatively stagnant as I go through the course of a 9-5 design job, as well as staving off general laziness, I’ve undertaken this personal project.
Every day, rain, shine or somewhere inbetween, I will be making something cool. The results may be photos, design pieces, experimental type, videos, or anything else I feel is worth showing. The only caveat will be that each piece will have to be made that day, even though it might not get posted on the same day.
The end result of the project will be a book (possibly 365 pages long, maybe shorter to reduce costs), which I will make available to anyone who wants to pay for one.

You can track the project at the 2010|365 website or check out everything else I get up here.

Yes, I get paid to make movies about LEGO. Life is good.

December 8th “Ogilvy”

Inspired by a quote gracious passed along to me by the irrepressible Mr Tobias Ottahal (and cynicism, lots and lots of cynicism).

December 6th “National Pickle Day (FAIL)”

339|365

I had very high hopes of creating an epic, yet somewhat cheesy poster to celebrate that finest of holidays, National Pickle Day. It unfortunately didn’t really work out in the time I had, so this was the (somewhat sad) result. Perhaps I’ll get to try again later.

Got to playing with a wine cap at this evening’s underground xmas party. Ladyfriend however, is the clever one who realized it was actually Santa in disguise.
