Cyber Zombie


He wants your brains...and your broadband connection...

Another one from the queue - yet more of the Creepy Cute oeuvre. Just a ninja and a jester to go now...but I really ought to be starting on a cardigan for K before she grows out of size 3-4. She's eating like a horse and growing like a weed, it seems.

I've been a bit domestically challenged this week; decided to try my hand at marmalade thanks to an enormous orange surplus. Given my usual bish-bash-bosh approach to cooking, it's no surprise really that the ruddy stuff won't set - no sugar thermometer, ignored the recommendation of orange (two bloods and two navels really aren't the same as four Sevilles) and probably overboiled it to boot; I suspect the amount of pectin in there is negligable. Still, I have four rather nice jars of orange sauce - if only I could afford the duck to go with it! Watch this space for "failed marmalade recipes"...

Cute zombie! Sorry to hear about the marmalade but bet that sauce will be good.

Thanks! He's looking ever-so-cute sat on my desk, and has already had people coo-ing over him! *grins*

What a lovely package it was to open, last night!

Glad it got there safely!

I'm available for commission work ;)

I love the cyber zombie with extra blood! I also love the look of your cakes, must invite myself over for dinner some time :)

You can just about see Mr C. Zombie in this picture here (only his head, though, but it gives you a general idea of where he lives!)
