Indonesia was good! I was the entire month of October away with the family to Java and Bali and it was awesome. Lots of food, lots of adventures. It was the perfect getaway!
In the final chapter of the Troy Denning trilogy, we explore the shop's crew love of extra-time activities and the special bond that fellow tattoo artist Kiku and Troy have.
In Part 1 of the Troy Denning Tattoo Age series, we keep up with Troy as he struts around town with his new drinking vessel. We also learn about his unique style, and how he has taken his personality and manifested it into one of the best tattoo parlors in New York City.
In the first installment of Grime's series we hear from tattoo artists, Civ and Chris O'Donnell, as they try to put their perspective how unique Grime's style is. We meet the other tattooers at Grime's shop, Skull and Sword, and we learn how they too, strive to be constantly evolving in their tattooing.

This weekend my brother, Wendy and I got all inked. Wendy and my bro already got some ink, but it was for me it was my first time. And I kinda liked it. I love the smell of the ink, i love the needle poking my skin. Yeah it was a success. Wendy got a tatt from a Japanese guy and my bro by an Italian. And the guy who inked me was an American. Check out the picture's.
I call this my Mid-Week Weekend. It's been a while since I had three straight days off in a week. So I will take advantage of it. Thus the name, Mid-Week Weekend. And it starts with this song.
This week Fashion Against Aids started and in the store we sell some FAA items, including this piggy or bear backpack. So I couldn't help myself putting one on my back.
Remember the awesome Darth Vader Super Bowl ad that blew us all away. Marvel just released a promo for Thor that replaces the Sith Lord with a mini Thunder God to create the best spoof of that viral video yet.
Keep an eye for a few easter eggs, can you find them?
I love how kids have awesome clothing style. So last Sunday a newphew of mine had this awesome style. He combined suspenders with Adidas trainerpants and a simple t-shirt with a kiddie print. I'll will steal his awesome style!
Check out Victoria Secret's Kate Upton's crazy dance. These kinds of girls I like. Having a blast, laughing, crazy dances. I do need to meet more girls like these.
It's always a delight to have some spare time to cook some comfort dishes. This entire weekend I cooked my favourite dishes. I even had the time to cook a dish from my childhood.
My mom always made noodle soup with eggs and rice for me when I was a kid. So this is my version. Simple chicken broth with noodles and an egg on top. On the bottom you'll find white rice. Brings back so many memories.
I love it when an artist is covering another artist. So it was a delight that Eliza Doolittle covers Cee-Lo's "Fuck You". And she does a great job at it!
I love the new Adidas' new commercial. You see all the bigg icons in the sportsindustry. It's a big suprise to hear Justice's new track, so why wait. Go watch!
Charlie Sheen's new cooking show; Winning Recipes, Charlie shows you how to cook using all of the power of a warlock. Sheen has crazy powers, that's why he still is winning!
Last Wednesday we saw Lissie in the Milyway Amsterdam. She did blast it on stage and even did Pursuit of Happiness ( Kid Cudi ). I had an awesome time with Wendy & Wesley!
For this dish I used old bread. I chopped the bread and layered on my porkchop. It was a lumpy breadcrumb. I seasond the breadcrumb with pepper, salt and pesto. For my mash I used sour cream to give it a silky, smooth texture and flavour.
Today I made a really fast dish. I made an easy simple risotto with broccoli and tempura white fish. I used a lot of different kinds of cheese in the risotto, to give it a silky texture. I love the tempura fish on top of the broccoli on top of the risotto.
After months and months not buying new shoes, I finally got some new kicks. Straight out off Pricinct 5, Adidas KBALL MID by Kazuki Kuraishi. I don't have brown sneakers, so these make a pretty good addition to my collection. You are wondering, who is Kazuki Kuraishi?
Kazuki Kuraishi is a famed Japanese fashion designer who has been around for a while, he works behind the scenes for such Japanese style brnads as A Bathing Ape and Fragment design. His recent adidas ObyO collection has been something of a breakout collection for him, it gives him a chance to step out of Harajuku’s shadows and gain increased international recognition in his own right. His style shows classically simple designs with with high quality materials. Kazuki’s signature is his sparing use of a single vivid colour, as seen here on the laces, to prick the eye and add cohesion to his creations.
Last evening I attended a legendary concert by a great band with the name, Band of Horses. I were really, really good. Ben ( the leadsinger ) was awesome, also the band was beyond great! One of the greatest moments of that night, when they did the following songs: Is there a ghost( they started with this song ),No one's gonna love you, The end is not near, Older and Evening kitchen. I made some pics with my iPhone.
This was truly a night to remember, I want seconds!
I found this video on Youtube. I was standing close to the dude who was filming. So you have a clue were I was standing.
