I’ve made a foray into amigurumi recently. I have an idea for a huge project for after I finish working on The Gearheart, but I’ve gotta design some amigurumi for it. It’s a lot harder than it looks! I have made a head (whoopty doo, it’s just a ball) and I’ve been [...]

Guest Post: Oooh, an origins story with Zelda crafts!
Hello everyone!
In case you can’t recognize the…uh…well I guess there aren’t any distinguishing features on the Internet, now are there? Well at any rate I’m Ashley, sometimes known as Ash, long-time friend of Alex (of The Gearheart fame) and our favorite scientist of domesticology. Oh, and also ridiculously huge fan of the professor.

Gamer Drink: The Triforce
Happy Friday! Here’s a Zelda themed drink to start your weekend:
So all you Zelda fans know the Tri-force has three parts. Link (courage), Zelda (wisdom), and Gannon (strength). That was the inspiration for this drink. I chose a dark Rum for Link, since he represents courage, and the nick-name for rum [...]
D20 Rice Crispie Treat
