Giant Robot Store and GR2 News
Sometimes, I have to eat too and there are times, when I’m at home and gotta make something. So what to do? I had a whole chicken frozen in the freezer, it was the night that I would roast this thing. I defrosted it, threw some veggies around it, a tiny bit of oil, salt and pepper, and did it up for an hour a 1/4 at 450 and then 375.

I’m not sure if it’s a compliment (it would be for me – if I wore a dress – I think?) but the dress looked like chain mail from where I was standing. If I had a short sword, and took a swing, I think Naomi would be singing behind the keyboards.

Clare Rojas new book... I wrote about this before, and now Juxtapoz blogged it too.
Ironically, I just stole the photo back. Hope you don't mind either! I didn't know I had dry wit, but that sounds pretty good, I think.

If they don’t have it, tell them to carry it.
