First off, I shall begin with the awesome potatoes; which, contrary to the name have nothing whatsoever related in shape or form to the tuberous vegetable.

No, what I refer to is the amazingly awesome Sam and Max sketch book, or as it is titled 'The Age of S&M'

(together with a nice pair of handcuffs), so that anyone that sees the book is able to go off on a tangent on the book’s specific contents.

I must admit I've only managed to have a flip through the thing, after a fit of raging jealous that it is marked as a second edition,

I continued on; looking at the pretty pictures -some of them pretty akin to my drawing skills even. I am a little disappointed that it is a rather small book, but have chosen not to go on about this, as it only cost $17.

But either way, it’s awesome, shoving Telltale up my list, to the spot of No.2 game developer -because nothing will ever beat the amazingly awesomeness of Double Fine.
I cannot wait to see if they begin selling various different Sam and Max related articles. (They better ^_^)

Onto my ‘strange ball’!!! I finally wanted to make some Onigiri (rice balls) after seeing them in numerous anime, and not to mention: Harvest Moon.

Now, veering from the traditional savoury (and mostly fishy) flavour of Onigiri I wanted to make a sweet alternative, finding Ohagi to look a little funny... I looked to my amazing imagination and made this little (actually huge) creation, with many due thanks to this website

So.. rather than use Japanese rice, I used glutinous, and rather than sprinkling with salt for a nice taste I sprinkled sugar... now because of this, it also means that it would be impossible to take my creation away from the kitchen to eat hours later (as there is no salt to preserve the rice) but it still makes a tasty snack if you are in the mood for making them.

I also filled the ball with red bean paste (which I made myself also)

In other unrelated news, I asked the comic guy today about the new Buffy and he said he wouldn't be getting it in until next, next week!!!
Looking at my schedule for the next couple of weeks, it looks like I'm going to have to pick it up off him >_>

P.S I love Lovefilm for sending me some free Green&Blacks chocolate; of which I must have mooore!!
