He's a demon, long dead, with nothing to lose.
Well it's been almost two weeks since my last photo post and a bunch of things have happened. The weather has been quite crazy. It has been pretty warm and dry most days, but out of nowhere it started pouring rain last week, like thick sheets of rain that you normally only see in movies. The next day it was back to being sunny and normal.
Becky and I have gotten hooked on the Pioneer Woman's recipes.
The first one that we attempted was the Sandwich here: http://www.thepioneerwoman.com/confessions_of_a_pioneer_/2007/04/strip_steak_san.html
They were Tasty Town and I got some tasty images of their tasty creation.
Onions...
...Meat...
...and some other stuff shoved on the corner of the table there. (notice the multiple sticks of butter) All combine to create a meaty sandwich fit for any manly adventurer such as myself.
Some pre-sandwich stretching. Wouldn't want to pull a muscle constructing these beasts.
Becky cuts up the much needed meat...
...but is ever watchful of potential spies come to steal our culinary secrets.
The meat begins to cook.
Becky adds the first of many scoops of Worcestershire sauce.
Another scoop!
Cook that meat!
Action cooking!
Add in the onions.
Butter up that bread!
Grill that bread!
Ah! the moment is nearly here.
Finally. Sandwich-y glory. Much deliciousness was had by all and many bellies(2) were stuffed to the bursting point with meaty goodness.
Our next little segment is from a few days ago when I brought my camera to the theatre to take some pictures of the cast before rehearsal gets started.
This is our Wadsworth
That is Ms. Scarlet on the right, Yvette center, and part of Mrs. White on the left.
This is what happens when everyone tries to act "candid" and pretend that there is no camera. I'd say it's a pretty accurate portrayal of actors at the peak of their craft.
That's Wadsworth again on the left, and Plum on the right.
Here is a motorist/cop/FBI agent.
That is Mrs. Peacock on the right and the assistant director on the left.
Another "candid" shot. This time featuring our mascot, Buttercup!
A piece of the set for "Ug: The Caveman Musical", the show that is playing right now at Chico Cabaret.
We have to work around this set for now until a few weeks before our show opens, when Ug closes.
Butters!
The Cabaret does Rocky Horror every year around Halloween. I should go this year, I hear it is good.
BUTTERS!
Ah, Butters is a cyborg. I wish she would stop killing us with her laser eye.
I caught Plum sneaking around behind the stage.
I can't remember what was going on here.
Well if it isn't Colonel Mustard.
And I took a picture of my feet on accident. And then we got started rehearsing and the camera went away.
The second and most recent of the Pioneer Woman recipes we have followed was for her chocolate sheet cake.

I forgot to get my camera until we were already well under way in our creation.
There is the batter before adding int he milk and the eggs. It's basically just melted butter, cocoa, flour and sugar.
Mix this goodness in and the cake is good to go in the oven. Time for frosting.
Becky measuring out something. I don't know how she is doing it with her eyes closed.
Becky decides that she would rather be a photographer than a photographee and takes matters into her own hands.
Does this post look familiar?
We mix some marshmallows into the frosting just before adding it to the cake.
Look at all those swirly awesomes!
Ok, there is the cake, let's do this.
So it begins.
It slowly begins to spread out over the cake...
...until it is almost completely consumed.
Smearing is complete and Becky begins to apply some finishing tough styled marshmallows on the cake.
She can't help but get a little sneak tasting of the frosting. She's a naughty one she is.
This cake's destiny was to be brought over to the guys house and be consumed while we all re-dubbed "Zorro: La Espada y La Rosa" this Spanish soap opera that is just too good for words. So before we head over I am going to add a bit of Zorro-y flair with my trusty rapier/spatula. After the cake is sufficiently scarred we pack it up and take it on over
Here we are after arriving at our destination, cake safely on lap.
After this I forgot to bring the camera in for pictures of the cake being devoured and enjoyed, but you will just have to take my word for it that that is what happened.
All right. That catches me up all the way to yesterday. I hope you enjoyed yet another brief glance into my happenings.
