This is the ingredients for Lurking pasta sauce

First off take some good ole water and measure out 3/4 cup.
Pour into large pot and put on high heat
Now dice up up 8 or so Romano tomatoes and chuck em in the pot
Next cut up a stick of celery into little pieces and chuck em in
boil up
empty a small jar of artichoke hearts into the boiling mess
Dice a 1/4 of green pepper and red pepper chuck em in
Dice up 1/4 of an onion and chuck it in
Now empty a small can of chopped olives
Play your PS3 for 10, then get back to the kitchen
5 table spoons of some nice aged balsamic vinager
pepper to taste
dill weed
a splash of olive oil
now empty a small can of tomato paste
and chuck in a good handful of baby spinach

hit up the PS3 for a good hour or two while the mix is cooking on a ow heat.

Make up your fave pasta and fry it up with the sauce, Kill the party.

knowshow

Last week I went over to the KNOWSHOW trade show in Vancouver to do some live painting courtesy of NIXON canada. It was a great show full of good peeps, I managed to get three paintings done which was a treat. The lovely gents from Nixon were nice enough to put my girl and me up at a sick hotel downtown Vancouver called Le slolie (see photos of lobby). After we made ourselves comfortable we got some eats with some good friends at ZAKUSHI on Denman St right downtown, I always go here when I'm in Van, its a charcoal grill style Japanese restraunt, I ate chicken hearts!!!!!

We then went on to FORTUNE SOUND CLUB to watch a couple of DJs battle it out and battle they did, please do yourself a favor and know what is happening at this club, they have a night for everyone, even hip hop karaoke. Thanks to GMAN and Dirk at Nixon, also props to Geoff Dermer for being rad and Kerry Mcall for being drunk, oh and Amanda for keeping the red stripes real hazy.
