Uh Oh!

Holy shittake! I can't believe I've only posted ONCE this entire month! Shame on me. But, enough with the negatives. There's a reason why I've been neglecting this blog.

Chaz and I have started a new project that has been taking up quite a bit of our time. It's called Organarchy and it's really exciting. It's good to have something you're passionate about in your life, so when you're significant other is on that same level with you, it's kind of like a new high.

Our basic goals with Organarchy is to help those looking to try veganism. We were once SAD [Standard American Diet] eaters and found it to be a bit overwhelming when transitioning to eating this way. We're also offering kitchen tutorials, recipes, lessons about the body [and what eating SAD does to it] and tons of other stuff. We're not here to preach; we're here to help.

So yeah. You can check it out HERE and if you're interested or if you have any questions, leave a comment, subscribe to the blog or email me directly at: fruit.killer@yahoo.com

I have also been considering opening a new shop specifically for the sushi roll pillows and keeping Zombie Hand as a place for my knitted/crocheted wearables. We'll see!

Hope everyone has a HAPPY HALLOWEEN WEEKEND!

I'm Baaack

What better way to come back from an illness than to blog about this super fantastic giveaway from Artellect Etsy? No better way, I tell you!

Go here for all of the details. 7 items are up for grabs and it's going on until 10/24. Open to US residents only.

More later, but for now go check out the giveaway!

The Bug

Being married, I learned you share everything. Living space, food, bills, fun and...sickness. That's probably why it's written into traditional marriage vows. "In sickness and in health". I wonder if too many wives were abandoning sickly husbands or vice versa? Anyhow, that is where I am. Resting and drinking plenty of fluids.

Hope you all are well :)

The Duties of Marriage

My dear husband is feeling under the weather this morning so my first obligation is taking care of him. And with this, knitting/crocheting/crafting takes a backseat. Is it flu season already?

Lemon Gold Short Cowl

I have officially listed my first crocheted accessory! I call it the Lemon Gold Short Cowl [as it is not meant to be worn up over the head] and I'm pleased with its outcome. This is also the debut of the new section in my shop entitled Miso Cute.

This is the first time I've modeled anything as I normally do not create wearables. I'm looking into investing in a mannequin display :)

Today has been pretty mellow here. Chaz and I went to the Ocean Beach Peoples Food Co-op [we love it there!] to pick up some edibles and supplies to make whole wheat organic penne pasta with an onion garlic tomato sauce for dinner tonight. I am very lucky to have a husband that creates delicious vegan eats for us.

Other than that, I've been back on the knitting needles working on a larger cowl as requested by my dear friend Sherry. It's been a very long time since she asked for it [almost 2 years] so I'm finally jumping in and taking the plunge. I don't know why I've shied away from making clothing and accessories for so long. I think learning how to crochet has opened my mind up to the possibilities.

Everyone, I wish you all a wonderful rest of the weekend! Stay safe!

Wow

Learning the wonderful new craft of crocheting has displaced me, I must admit. I have been completely engulfed in stitches like the front post double crochet and a whole new world of possibilities has opened up.

But now, it's back to stocking up for the holiday season. I plan on continuing my crochet craftiness all the while keeping my knitting skills sharp.

With that said, keep an eye out for new plushies, pillows and more from Zombie Hand Productions.

Congratulations Are In Order!

The giveaway I sponsored now has a winner! Congratulations to Kelsie who will be receiving her free custom pillow shortly. I would also like to take the opportunity to thank everyone who commented, hearted, favorited, liked and followed Zombie Hand Productions because of this contest. I have "met" some awesome people through this giveaway and I hope to sponsor another giveaway soon!

On the Craft Front, a pretty amazing thing happened yesterday: I taught myself to crochet! And...it is FUN! I don't know why it took me so long to give it a go, but now you all know the reason why there was no post yesterday. Barely any activity related to Zombie Hand at all really, but for good reason I like to think.

Now I have some things to attend to as I spent all day yesterday testing out my newly acquired skill :)

Have a Happy Hump Day everyone!
