Buster's Tie

And when he walks into a room while he's wearing it, all nonchalant, it is hilarious.  You keep expecting him to put down his briefcase and complain about work.  It gives the impression that he hasn't spent the entire day sleeping and licking his ass.  Which he totally has.

Nuvia's Appetizers: aka Jalapeno Spicy Stuff

After trying these strange little appetizers at a party, the kids now insist that we have them as an after school snack fairly often.  They love them. Which isn't to say that only strange little kids (as ours clearly are) will like them.  Most adults do as well.  That is despite the fact that the combination seems pretty unappetizing (forgive the pun). 

I promise you, these are worth trying.



 And my nephew,  Kam, was super excited to show the internet how to make them. 



So we made this little video.  For you. (You'll need colby cheese, pickled jalapenos and red grapes.)

It's slightly more informative than the last tutorial that Kam made three years ago for making frogs out of gumpaste.



I think he might have a future in this.
