It was recently brought to my attention that not many people know of my ability to cook. I grew up watching my mom cook and everything I know I learned from her. I started cooking weekend dinners for my family when I was in high school and just kept up with it. I don’t cook fancy often since I usually live in apartments with less-than-ideal kitchens. But my mom has this totally tricked-out kitchen and I love cooking there. That plus she has every possible ingredient you didn’t even know that you needed.
A simple visit to my parents yesterday for a Costco run turned into an all-day cookfest. My mom and I made ribs, something I had not done before.
And now, pictures of the July 5th BBQ my mom and I made. It was all kinds of awesome.
Grilled corn with butter, queso blanco, chilli powder, paprika, and a squeeze of lime.
Baby back ribs. Dry rubbed, cooked low and slow in the oven. Moist and fall-off-the-bone tender. They needed no sauce.
Seriously, the ribs were amazing. Not pictured is the incredible gazpacho my mom made as well as the dessert we put together. We sliced fresh strawberries, tossed them with lemon zest, pear and strawberry balsalmic vinegars (see what I mean about ingredients you never thought you needed?) and a pinch of sea salt. We let them chill and get all nice and saucy. Of course, we were all too full from dinner to have dessert. But I brought some of the strawberries home and spooned them over vanilla yogurt. So damn good!

Bat asks for your forgiveness in kris’ lack of product this week.
Grace will not have an update this week. I actually did ink a page and, well, it was awful. I don’t want to post pages that are crap just for the sake of posting. So that page got tossed and I am starting over. I’ll admit to being off of my game these last few weeks, but there has been a lot going on and getting back in my groove has not been easy. But I’ll get there soon.

So the old LJ will be more active again. I've started cross-posting from my kris dresen draws blog. Because, really, you can't be in too many places at once.

God help me, but I am monkeying around with Twitter. I know, I know…but it intrigues me for some reason. I usually only post when I’m working on comics and whatnot. I’ll also post when new comics and Grace updates are up, too. So if you’re really interested in the minutia of my existence then, by all means:

A new series of drawings I'm working on: http://www.girlthrow.com/blindrabbits/ I've gone back to drawing very small. I was going through some of my older comics and found that I really missed all of those little, little lines I used to do when I had younger eyes. I just love how those comics look. Over the years I've been slowly drawing bigger and looser. While I wasn't unhappy with those results (see the three panel Max & Lily strips), I was missing the intensity of drawing so much in such a little space.
So that coupled with me yet again trying to unravel the mysteries of relationships by drawing a scenario over and over again with different characters in different settings, and you get blind rabbits. In other words, a typical kris project. Enjoy.

So. I was going to make an LJ feed for my new journal, but I discovered that someone has already done the deed.
http://syndicated.livejournal.com/kris_dresden/
Whoever created the feed, thanks! But, um, my last name is Dresen, not Dresden. Thanks to the Dresden Dolls, I now get that spelling more than ever.

I figure that I'll continue to announce Grace updates here until it's finished. But new art, comics, and other nonsense will only be posted in my spiffy new journal, kris dresen draws.
Anyway, Grace, Chapter Eleven, page 06 is up! I know this was supposed to be an off week, but the winter storm that's icing up the area has kept me apartment bound this weekend. So, what the hell. Why not bust out a Grace page?
