Thanks for sticking with me this month as I twisted a drawing challenge into a food writing challenge of my own. Now to get back to some of the fun stuff I’ve been cooking and not sharing this month. :D

Nablopomo – Turning point in your life – Quirky Cookery
I can’t say that starting this website was an actual turning point. After all, I already had Quirky Jessi and for the first year that this blog was even open, the posting was sporadic, no real focus was here, and it was way down on the list of priorities.
But along the way, there have already been some great opportunities, awesome people met, and a lot of fun had that was motivated because QC existed. So it totally counts. :P
Well, that, and it’s a great excuse to do one of those “what weird stuff people search for that brings them here” kind of posts that are fun on QJ:
- this is why you’re fat meat baby (I’m sure he thoroughly appreciates that)
- paying for coffee (yes, yes you should pay…)
- cup stuck in a garbage disposal (apparently this happens to other people….a lot)
- pomeranian cheese (ruff, ruff!)

- stab hot dog spaghetti knife (there are likely more efficient things to stab with…)
- whale w/ horn (do you have to abbreviate when you’re searching? and it’s a narwhal, pfft)
- "a lot of my friends are vegans now, which i don’t care, eat whatever you want. i just think that my least favorite part of the vegan diet is the verbal part, where they explain it to you. it’s just endless! they’re like, ‘i’m a vegetarian, but i don’t even eat milk or honey because it takes animal labor to make milk and honey and i think that’s wrong.’ and it always strikes me as childish logic, it’s like, ‘i like bees and cows more than the immigrants that pick the vegetables that i eat.’" (okay, so maybe this one *should* have abbreviated)
- "breakfast log" -cabins -accommodation (this one knows exactly what he wants….or doesn’t want, rather)
- "in canada it’s the number-one-selling grocery item and an object of worship on par with hockey. (that’s cheating!! but kraft dinner is the answer :P )

NaBloPoMo is here yet again – 30 day blogging challenge
It’s that time of year again. The time of year where I join a whole bunch of other people in writing/posting my butt off. While some of the crew are writing full novels in 30 days, the blogger variety is making sure they post every day for National Blog Posting Month.
Some years I’ve gone with a theme, like in 2008 when I did a whole month of “quirky art” on the QJ site, and others, not so much, like last year here where I just shifted my focus to making sure I showed you a whole bunch of weird food-related stuff.
This year? A variation on this:
No, I will not be drawing. :p It’ll all be food-related, whether mine or someone else’s, and will be some interpretation of each thing on the list.
So today? “Yourself”?
Quirky Jessi and some guy wearing a sun costume at BlogHer for the Jimmy Dean (mmm, sausage) No Kid Hungry Pledge. His sheepish grin is because he was a little surprised to be standing next to someone else dressed up…and not being paid for it, ha. And yes, my ears do indeed match my shirt. What of it?
