Today's lunch was homemade pot stickers from my stepdad. He made a huge batch the last time we visited Portland, and we brought back a big bag of frozen ones. They are some of the absolute best-tasting pot stickers I've ever had. Didn't really need any dipping sauce (which is my own mix of soy sauce, ponzu, rice vinegar, ground ginger, garlic powder, chives, and chili peppers), but we had some anyway. Perfect sunday afternoon lunch.
Combined a $15 loupe from London Drugs with a cardboard tube from starbucks and some glue, paint, and duct tape to basically double the magnification of my 18-55 stock lens and also allow me to get about a inch away from the subject. Slides perfectly over the lens barrel. Most of the photos in this set www.flickr.com/photos/joncampbell/sets/72157622422437708/ are taken with this on.

Here's the prototype of my homemade gimbal mount, similar to the Wimberley Sidekick (well, like a chuck of gravel is similar to the 30 carat diamond).
Homemade basil ice cream in a SPOON.
It tastes okay. While cooking the base, it smelled like something that belonged on pasta. Thankfully it tastes better than that in ice cream form.
Photos Coming Soon...I call this 1A because eventually I'm going to need my Polaroid filmback back, so I will have to tear it apart and make a new one
Happy White Day. :-)
I was asked by my daughter to make some sweets with chocolate. Maybe it's the first time for me to try that. It was fun!
We used some of our fresh tomatoes to make this delicious homemade pizza with a pizza stone we got recently.
So it's technically not yard art but it gets honorable mention since i'm sure it sits in the yard more than it's on the road
Homemade raviolis - my first time!
The dough is bit hard. I made it without a pasta machine!
Used mushroom, tofu, mozzarella and cheddar for the filling - should have added a bit more salt.
Now the homemade ciabattas. I've tried making them before but always ended up using standard white bread flour, and whilst nice, they never seemed quite right.
So I ordered some ciabatta flour on t'internet - from Shipton Mills - and tried again. This time they came out a lot better. Not quite the slightly chewy ciabattas you normally get - the ones with the big bubbles in them - but a lot closer, and very tasty too. I've got some ideas on how to get those bubbles too.
I use a good quality Extra Virgin Olive Oil to really give it a good edge.

Homemade flash diffuser for Holga Mini Flash.
Made from a White film canister, for more info visit my blog.
This is the homemade cheese I made last week. One half-gallon of whole milk gave me a little more than this much cheese (and a LOT of whey).
The cheese was wrapped in this piece of muslin and hung to drain for an hour or so. So this is what it looked like when I unwrapped the muslin.
