Recently I was challenged to a friendly painting competition by Ampersand Fern that renewed my interest in the painting aspects of hobby. Over a weekend, we agreed on a mini to paint and laid out some ground rules. The biggest rule; have fun! We both tried something new and pushed our hobby muscles to the limits. You can read her view of the events here. Here is behind the scenes and look into my side of the event, one which we will do again soon!I have been in this hobby for a long time, but haven't necessarily been a big...

Been a quiet month for us here and we haven't been streaming as much as we would like during December. Obviously this time of the year is all about family, friends and food.

I have been sticking to that original Wednesday and Saturday Stream as best as I could, but due to unforeseen consequences I'll have to have an update. If I'm being honest, this update is actually a good thing. The Twitch schedule builder is definitely lacking the freedom I need to have fair stream schedule while still maintaining a full time job and other adult duties. Making my own schedule right on my own website gives me that...

12 Beers enter, 1 beer leave As promised in a previous post, my friends and I decided to do a blind tasting of different brands of Root Beer. We all had our own ideas and hopes of what we thought would be top contender. There were surprised faces, shocked tongues, and confused brains through the whole process. A few things changed as well, from the original concept of taking a bunch of Root Beer and chugging to a more sophisticated operation. Starting from our original list of ten beers, we found extras as well as couldn’t find a few from the...
