Posted 14 years ago[ The first 10 people who comment on this journal will be featured here, along with three deviations/pieces/artworks chosen from their gallery by myself.
If you answer, you'll have to do the same in your journal, putting me on the first place, completing the list with 9 other people. The idea of this is not to get a free feature, it is to spread art around for everyone. ]
[ ALSO, YOU HAVE TO ACTUALLY HAVE ART, EITHER DONE BY YOU OR COMMISSIONED IN YOUR GALLERY ]

911! Need jewelry or art!? Hire my sis! VERY CHEAP YET GOOD!
Posted 14 years agoMy RL sister Yohnnilee/Fenikkitsune http://yohnnilee.deviantart.com/ on DA is needing help. Here's the deal: To help pay bills, keep their car legal, and not STARVE, she's selling art commissions & jewelry. She makes very nice custom jewelry and does good, clean, quick art for CHEAP. Her art style is influenced originally by the style used in Disney's Gargoyles, but its since evolved into its own flair. Here are her prices:

Fuck, just found out Dox got leaked...
Posted 14 years agoSo due to my alt account commissioning someone whose notes got leaked, I just found out tonight my dox got leaked as well (Since they mailed me some things). They got my name, address, e-mails, & cell number. Fuck... If they find the hacker/hackers that did this, I want in on the civil suit. Now I'm gonna be worrying for pizza/magazine bombs 'for the lulz'...
Do something USEFUL for the holidays!
Posted 14 years agoWhen filling out your Christmas cards this year, take JUST one card and send it
to this address:
A Recovering American Soldier
C/O Walter Reed Army Medical Center
6900 Georgia Avenue NW
Washington, DC 20307-5001
Doing so sends the card to a soldier recovering from injuries in the hospital this holiday season. So, enjoy and help out someone this holiday season!

A common sense look at the ban on adult cub art...
Posted 15 years agoI've seen both sides, and i have one thing to say:
It all boils down to the fact we can all takes sides & bitch all we want on EITHER side about the ban, but in the end FA is a private site. It's not a democracy, its not something you can call a congressman to change. Dragoneer pays for & runs the site, so its his rules. He doesn't want the underage adult art for a VERY valid reason. So people can suck it up & deal or leave. Our opinions and thoughts on it don't matter because in the end, its not our website. If furs want to make a cub art site, they can do that. But, from now on, sexual cub art is no more on FA. So just deal and move on with life...
On a positive upside to all this, all the artists who left FA until sexual cub art was banned will now come back, so we're getting a LOT more good art out of the deal.

I live in a nanny state
Posted 15 years agoSo, WA banned alcoholic energy drinks Wednesday because last month nine college students binge drank Four Loko and ended up in the hospital. Yes, my favored kind of occasional drinking is now stripped from me because of some dumb college kids doing what dumb college kids do.
Now, the ban is for 120 days to give the state time to do a permanent ban. BUT, the state is forcing companies to get rid of millions in stock in a week, and they are refusing to hear the stores or the companies' side of the story. In fact, all this is being done in private 'for our own good'.
Now, I'm rightly pissed by this, as they are making a snap judgement based on the actions of nine idiots. No matter that Four Loko has only as much alcohol as wine, and the same amount of energy as a cup of coffee. They need to address the actual issue of underage drinking, and not do band-aid bans like this that punish responsible drinkers as well as retailers alike. besides, with Four Loko banned, college kids will just go back to mixing Monster or Red Bull with Vodka, which has FAR more energy and alcoholic content!
So, yeah... Welcome to the Nanny State I live in... And that we'll ALL live in if parent groups have their way & get these drinks banned nationally 'for the children'. You know, because the government is so good at stopping kids from doing bad things. Look at our 'successful' war on drugs!

Winter Squashes & You
Posted 15 years agoIt's turning into fall, and its time once again to look into different ways of cooking those heartiest of plants: The summer squash. Now, we all know the pumpkin. We slice him up for Halloween, and eat his insides for Thanksgiving in pie form. But did you know there's a whole world of winter squashes that beg to be eaten? Let's look at some of them now...
Spaghetti Squash
Spaghetti squash is God's answer to those who are allergic to gluten, yet want to enjoy spaghetti. With its crunchy yellow texture and light taste, spaghetti squash is very easy to prepare and serve.
The simplest way to prepare spaghetti squash is to slice off the end where it was connected to the stem, then slice in half lengthwise. Then scoop out the seeds & pulp before laying cut-side down into a casserole dish with 1 inch of water. Then bake at 350 F for 45-55 minutes or until the meat of the squash flakes into strands easily.
After this, the easiest way to enjoy spaghetti squash is to shred it into a bowl and toss lightly with a tablespoon or two of flavored olive oil before serving as a spaghetti replacement with a nice marinara or similar tomato-based sauce & cheese topping it. BUT, I have a recipe I like that flips this squash on its ear...
Spaghetti Squash & Sausage
1 2 lb Spaghetti Squash
1 full link Kielbasa Sausage, cubed
2-3 Garlic Cloves, minced
2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
Prepare Spaghetti Squash as described above and start baking in oven.
As squash bakes, warm olive oil in skillet or wok and add meat & garlic.
Stir-fry meat & garlic over medium heat until lightly browned, but not burned.
Set aside meat until squash is finished baking.
Scrape meat of squash directly into skillet or wok with fork & return cooking implement to heat.
Stir-fry the meat, garlic, & squash together for 3-4 minutes to allow the flavors to mingle, then serve. Serves 2-4 people easily.
Butternut Squash
Butternut squash is another squash that has been overlooked during the Winter for its cousin that we put candles into. A shame as this versatile squash has a a myriad of uses!
Once again, to start preparing this squash, you slice off the end where the stem was attached before slicing in half lengthwise. Scoop out the seeds and pulp before applying a little peanut oil VERY lightly to the cut end of the squash. Lay it cut side DOWN in a casserole dish and bake in a 375 F oven for 30-40 minutes or until the skin lightly gives when pressed on. Pull from the oven and let cool for 10-15 minutes.
From this point, the sky is the limit with this versatile squash. The most common method is as a substitute for mashed potatoes. Just scrape the meat from the skin and mash with some salt, cumin, and 2-3 Tablespoons of butter to make a unique side dish that goes with most meals.
Also, a trick I use to get furs to eat vegetables is to puree up 1 cup of cooked butternut squash & mix it with half a cup of milk & half a cup of shredded cheddar. Then you add a dash of kosher salt and slowly cook over low heat in a sauce pan to make a rich cheese sauce that goes VERY well over elbow noodles or broccoli!
Finally, as a dessert, you can puree the cooked meat with a Teaspoon of Pumpkin Pie Spice, half a cup of milk, 2 eggs, & two tablespoons of melted butter in a food processor until mixed together, Then pour the mix into a casserole dish, top with chopped up bits of butter and brown sugar, & bake in a 350 F oven for 35 minutes, Then serve as a crust-free alternative to pumpkin pie!
Ah, but the BEST use for spaghetti squash is to prepare it as part of a rich winter soup. Not only is this an excellent meal that will leave leftovers for future meals, it is also great to prepare for potlucks to furry holiday gathers. This isn't my recipe, it's from http://flavordiva.com BUT, I still think it is the best use for butternut squash in a soup...
Butternut Squash Soup
2.5 – 3 pound butternut squash
6 cloves garlic, unpeeled
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more to drizzle
1 small onion, diced (about 1/2 cup)
1 tablespoon chopped fresh sage leaves
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1 medium apple, peeled, cored and cut into cubes
1 quart vegetable broth (4 cups)
1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more to taste
Fresh ground black pepper
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Slice off the small top end of the squash, then with the squash standing upright, carefully cut it in half with a large chef’s knife (be careful). Scoop out the seeds of both halves of the squash and discard.
Drizzle and rub a little olive oil on the flesh side of both halves of squash including inside the cavities. Then, placing three cloves of garlic in each cavity, place the halves skin side down on a baking sheet and roast uncovered in the oven for about 30 – 40 minutes or until squash gives to pressure when touched.
Remove roasted squash from oven and allow to cool for about 10 – 15 minutes. Heat three tablespoons of olive oil over medium high heat in a large Dutch oven or saucepan, and add onions, sage and thyme and cook stirring occasionally for about 5 – 8 minutes.
Scoop the flesh from the cooked squash into the pan (discard skin) and squeeze out the roasted garlic from their peels into the pan as well (discard peels). Stir together, add vegetable broth and apple cubes and bring to a boil briefly before lowering the heat to a simmer. Simmer soup for 20 minutes before pureeing in batches in a blender or with an immersion blender. Taste for additional seasoning and serve.
Acorn Squash
By now, we've covered two of the best squashes winter has to offer! And you thought it was all about the pumpkin, didn't you? But while you may think it is still the king of desserts, let us introduce its smaller cousin the Acorn squash! Since settlers came to America, this squash was seen as the king of desserts in the winter. Very easy to prepare and eat, this small squash has the benefit of making its own bowl!
To prepare, just slice the squash in half lengthwise. Scoop out the seeds and pulp, and lay skin-side down in a casserole dish with half an inch of water in the dish. Inside the squash, sprinkle brown sugar or maple syrup & bake in a 400 F oven for an hour. Let cool for 5 minutes and serve. As an alternative and extra sweet version to this, you can butter the squash's inside lightly before baking, then sprinkle with brown sugar, THEN drizzle with maple syrup before baking to make it decadently good!
Now, don't throw those acorn squash seeds away just yet! You can bake those, just like pumpkin seeds! Clean the seeds out of the seed pulp, wash off with water, and lay them out on paper towels to dry off. When dry, coat the seeds evenly with melted butter, lay flat on a cookie sheet, & bake in a 350 F oven for 10 minutes. The hull of the acorn squash's seeds are also thinner, so they don't cause nearly the issues eating them as pumpkin seeds do!
Finally, Summer Squash can even be an entree! Food Network's Rachel Ray came up with this recipe using couscous & ground beef. I don't much care for her, so you can go read that, yourself.
My own take is to bake the acorn squash woth olive oil rather than maple syrup, then skin the cooked meat from the skin and chop up into chunks. I then toss it into a cast iron skillet with half a chopped onion, a cup shredded potatoes, 2-3 minced garlic cloves, and whatever can of vegetables that needs to get used. Stir in the skillet, then cover & cook for about 6-7 minutes, or until the garlic looks golden and the onions & potatoes start to turn clear. Stir it every 3 minutes or so, just to be safe.
Shift the cooked veggie mix to one side in the skillet and crack open 2-3 eggs into the now open side. Fry the eggs until cooked to your liking and serve with a side salad for a good healthy lunch or dinner!
So there you have it! The versatility and delight of some of the Winter squashes that are in season RIGHT NOW! And the best part is all these meals can be prepared for VERY cheap, so they're great for those times you need to penny pinch. So, until next time, good eating and good cooking!

Posted 16 years agoI just wrote up this year's Halloween desc for The Golden Lash on TapestriesMUCK (t goldenlash)
The mouse is dressed up for Halloween '09 as a Repo Man!
With his helmet on, the mouse stands at over 7 feet in height to tower over most furs. The red vinyl helmet is a tall cylindrical shape with a flat top. Near the top of the helmet is a glowing yellow stoplight that illuminates the area in front of the masked mouse. The helmet has two glowing eye slits, the blue light glowing out of the mask to hide his species. The mask is designed so he can see out perfectly, but no one knows who he is.
The mouse's upper body is covered in a red doctor's coat made completly out of red vinyl with black vinyl accents and buttons. The long sleeves of the jacket run down to a pair of red rubber gloves over his paws to protect him from blood splatter as he does reposessions. From under the coat runs matching red vinyl slacks that run down to a pair of ankle-high black leather boots that help add to his new imposing height. Turning around, furs can see that even the mouse's tail is slipped into a long red vinyl sheath that is shaped in such a way as to help disguise his species.
I'm the monster!
I'm the villain!
What perfection!
What precision!
Keen incisions, I deliver!
Unscathed organs, I deliver!
Repossessions, I deliver!
I'm the Repo, Legal Assassin!
