Finally got my Hobonichi planner started this year 😁 I thought I’d change it up and try out the cousin this time around. I absolutely adore the cover!!

Had a kung fu performance today and I’m exhausted. It went really well though!! My favorite part is always lion dancing. I love puppeteering the head around and pestering people like a cat 😁

Hayao Miyazaki films start in his sketches—his "image boards." It’s a habit he’s kept up for 60 years. He works fast and loose, mainly in pencil and watercolor. Perfection isn't the goal. But you can trace his growth through the pictures. We explore: animationobsessive.substack.com/p/the-image-...

Because we need some beauty to combat this daily destruction and pain. At least I think my work can be beautiful at times.

This is me and my lion Chile! 🦁 I started leaning lion dance last year and I got to perform in my first Chinese new year show over the weekend. I’m a huge fan of puppets so this was a dream come true!

Here’s a recipe I’m working on! 😋 Sticky sesame chickpeas I’ve been recreating tofu dishes with beans. These are pan fried and coated in crispy potato starch that the sauce sticks to beautifully. They seriously don’t taste or have the texture of beans.

A white dinner plate with chop sticks. There is a pile of chickpeas in a sesame sauce next to white rice.

I PASSED my test at kung fu for 12 Spring Legs!!!!!!!! 💪😁 It’s a long form I’ve been working on for a year and I had to do it wearing two sets of metal rings. I tape mine up because my arms are so small they’ll fall right off.

the magic of the Muppets is that there are two fourth walls. they constantly break the one that reminds the audience they are performers. they NEVER break the one that reminds the audience they are puppets. this dynamic is the key to their entire comedy style

Some of my favorite January dishes 😋 I’m vegan and I recently developed some food intolerances to gluten and soy. So not a lot of options for me, but I’ve been experimenting and discovering new recipes and keeping my passion for cooking alive.
