Pocket Dog Commercial

VIDEO #345
Pocket Dog Informercial Jingles
I was at the grocery store scanning random products and came across frozen corn dogs. Instantly, I needed them. I thought, there's a commercial here somewhere, no problem. So here you have it... Pocket Dogs. If you think about it, not that you would do this, you could do exactly what this commercial is advertising... they're fully cooked!

The iSANDWICH App Theme Music

The best part of this video was I had a sandwich made after the shoot. I think I'm on to something.... So my buddies and I came up with this idea last summer and thought it'd make for a funny video but forgot all about it until today. So, here it is... the iSANDWICH app for all you "app people." Thanks Alex & Kai for the idea!

Getting fresh crab from OleBob's in Ilwaco, WA sure beats the landlocked grocery store! Even the cats agreed.
Here's a video in the days we couldn't afford to buy crab: VIDEO #50

The Frozen Food Aisle

Super Supermarket Music
Would you believe me if I told you we did not get in trouble shooting this video? Would you believe no one came up to us, even through the checkout line? Well, it's true. Even the guy shopping as you can see in the video just minded his own business because hey, what's weird about pulling a frozen girl out of the freezer? Yeah, nothing!

The Shopping Cart

Sounds from the distant land of Rainbow Toro
Portland, OR is home to keeping it local and shopping organically. I thought, after finding a shopping cart where Rainbow Toro was 'once said to have lived', maybe I could try making a Super Duper Organic Commercial.

Alabama Fried Chicken

Song - "Sweet Home Alabama" by Lynyrd Skynyrd

I'm back playing with toys again. It's been a while and thought I'd introduce a couple new characters (I consider them my friends): Alabama Al, his dog Punch and Steve the Skater. Isn't there a saying, Don't bother a dog while they're eating? Well, don't bother Al and Punch, it's eatin' time.

Song - "Zorba the Greek" by Gypsy Kings
Santa dropped by the other day and left a couple kitchen gadgets for the queen of the house. A sweet, sexy food processor made her grin ear to ear and the first recipe tonight... a delicious greek hummus. Very tasty and the flavors linger whether I want them to or not. Strong awesomeness, hello toothbrush.

Lasagna Night

VIDEO #267
Song - "Lasagna" by Weird Al Yankovitch
Birthday dinner in two styles, gluten free meatless healthy style (aka Cheese Louise) or dangerously awesome wheat-meat style (aka Man Pie) decorated and cooked with tender loving care. I went Man Pie in celebration of the 30th. I feel much manlier today.

Song - "Gettysburg" by Ratatat and The Musical Fruit Person
My Dad recently sent a package all the way from Minnesota and in that package was a bag of Ham Been's Brand Cajun Beans. If you know my Dad, this would not seem awkward. Sometimes he'll walk around the house and throw stuff in a box then send it out my way. Sometimes things have been living at the house for some time. I was pleased to see the beans were not expired and it turned out to be a great gift as the beans turned out real fancy. Thanks Dad!

Blog Gone Bad

Sick Music
Believe it or not, I had a plan for this video. A liquid diet / bachelor style, instant dinner kind of concept but when it came time to perform, the gag reflex showed up. I think it had something to do with the decisions I was making for the mixture, especially the pumpkin pie. My stomach is still very confused and I may not make it through the night... I guess we'll all know tomorrow if another video gets posted. Hold your breath. Side note, "One Week" by Barenaked Ladies happens to be one of my least favorite songs of all time. I thought it was appropriate for the least favorite part of my day.

Magic Pies


VIDEO #237
Elevator Music
In a perfect world, pies would make themselves, right? Well Skymall has done it again, they've come out with the Magic Pie Range, from Maytag! You only need a dish, patience and an oven mitt, the rest is magic!... but, to cover my butt I should say the better half has been slaving in the kitchen for the last couple hours making Thanksgiving apple and pumpkin pies. She is the real magic pie maker. Brownie points, take them where you can get them.

Fun with Food: Celery

Song - All Cellphone Ring Tones, can you believe it?
Do you remember those fun, creative treats called "Ants on a Log" you'd make with celery, peanut butter and raisins? Well, don't stop with just the bare minimum for ingredients, go nuts... get crazy with it. Life is way too short to limit yourself to Ants on a Log, you make the rules!

Man vs Food

Victorious Theme Music and "Loser" by Beck
Thursday night is Nacho Night at the Park City Pub up the street from me and it's been a while since I've indulged in the fun. For under 6 bucks, you too can order the belly buster and go through the tasty gauntlet of nacho mania. Oh, and I almost threw up editing this as the memories triggered my gag reflex. It's a good thing my videos don't come in Smell-O-Vision.

Kruger's Farm Market

Song - "Fisherman's Blues" by The Waterboys

A day out at Kruger's Farm Market on Sauvie Island is far from a dull moment. Head on out and get a pumpkin, maybe an ear of corn, carmel apple, hop on a pony, take the hay ride tour and meet Farmer Don and his wife. For more information, here is their website:

McMenamins Groupon

Song - "Bongo Bong" by Manu Chao covered by Robbie Williams
If you don't know about Groupon.com, you better get with it. Everyday there is a screaming deal, saving money on a massage to event tickets, restaurant deals to cruises. We picked up a McMenamins $12 for $25 and had a good time. They also have contests for best monthly photo and video. I sent this in yesterday, hoping the cheesiness of it will make a lasting impression. Wish me luck!

How Bout Them Apples?

Song - "Apples and Bananas" - A Teacher's Song
In the recent visit to Selah, Washington I was fortunate enough to be part of something very few people will get to experience in their lives. Yes, it is true... I have stepped onto the apple juice capital of the world's soil! If this remain to be true, I am a proud and fulfilled man. Life can end now. If this is not true and the sign's fact is outdated... well, that is the only thing keeping me alive I guess.

Katana's Non Stick Magic Pan

VIDEO #184

Song - "Breakfast at Tiffanys" by Deep Blue Something

The days of scrubbing and scrubbing eggs off our All-Clad are finally over! Katana researched a safer alternative to Teflon and found Calphalon. If you use the correct care it doesn't kill you. I guess only time will really tell... stay tuned.
