Month: December 2008

Seven pounds of hominy.

Why seven pounds you ask? OK, here's the story on this…

My wife had a 14 ounce can of hominy on our shopping list, which I'd picked up and put in our cart at the Shop & Save, but then on the endcap, I noticed this giant can of hominy for only 20 cents more.

Yep, for $3.09 I could get 14 ounces, or for $3.29 I could get seven pounds. In this economy, I'd be silly not to take that deal!

Anyhow, we cooked three different recipes with it, and mostly finished it up. I've also been banned from buying hominy without an escort.

Still, it provided lots of good stuff to eat, and weeks of jokes. That's good value!

Today's favorite blog/event of 2008 is my first LEGO cartoon:

Regular readers know my affinity for the studded brick, and I was really pleased with the way this one turned out.

I've got more on the way for 2009, so stay tuned!

(BTW, you can see more at Flickr.)

All of the wrapping paper is cleaned up, and a new year is only days away, so for the next few days I'm gonna look back at some of my favorite Andertoons blogs/events of 2008.

First on the list? Andertoons at SPX.

There was a lot of blogging about the book and the minicomics this year, but it all came to a head at SPX.

Ton's of fun, a lot of books sold, and some of favorite cartoony memories of the year. See you there next year!
