SKULL PILLOWS NOW AT KANIBAL HOME, JERSEY CITY

Skull pillows at Kanibal Home, Jersey City

How exciting is this? Kanibal Home is currently selling the skull pillows. I couldn't be more happy with the kind words she said about finding them at the last Not Your Mama's Craft Fair. No wonder this shop in such a staple in the Jersey City community. Kristen, the shop owner, is a big supporter of local artist.

The pillows look awesome in her store.

HOW TO ROLL AN EGG ROLL, ILLUSTRATION

Steps to roll an egg roll, illustrated by me. The recipe for egg roll filling is posted here.

NOTES:
- Use some egg wash or water on corners to seal.
- Best if one person is doing the frying and the other rolls.
- Freeze only after frying.
- Do not over fill with stuffing.
- Don't wait too long before frying. Dough will soften if the filling is too wet.



Egg Roll Steps, how to illustration.


Step 1: Lay wrap like a diamond and define your corners as 1, 2, 3, & 4 as shown in illustration.
Step 2: Fill middle with 2 - 3 TBS of egg roll filling and spread into a rectangle shape.
Step 3: Take corner # 1 and fold filling.
Step 4: Fold corner # 2 over top of egg roll filling and repeat with corner # 3.
Step 5: Roll the the filled egg roll on top of itself towards corner # 4 until the egg roll is closed.

NOT YOUR MAMA'S CRAFT FAIR


My friend Bill, from Night Division, sent me a link to some photo's from the Not Your Mama's Craft Fair. Aw, look at my little section. My table was in the same booth as Night Division and C.P.HARRIK.

More foodie related tees to come. But while you wait...

Head over to Bills shop. Buy art & tee's. Support small businesses. I ended up trading one of my shirts for this one.

WOW! What an amazing response I received from the Not Your Mama's Craft Fair crowd! I almost sold out of pillows & looks like I need to get more Powered by Veggies tee's soon. They were selling like hot cakes.

So much great stuff out there. It was truly an eye opening experience for me. Will share photo's of the booth once my friends share them me. I posted an etsy widget on the side of my blog for anyone who wants to check out the etsy shop.

Ahhh..... It's cozy in here.

A girl can get use to this bloging thing. After enjoying Polish Vegetarian so much, I needed to get this illustration blog started. They were both created at the same time yet I let my illustrations go on the back burner.

Not cool anymore. I will be reposting things from my other blog that have to do with illustration.
