Webcomics: What’s Cooking II

So back in October I spoke about a project called Webcomics: What’s Cooking.    In it I told you

…long time Beartoons supporter Byron Wilkins of 1977 the Comic has teamed up with Kurt Sasso of TGT Webcomics  for a cause near to my heart – Fighting Hunger.  They have collected food related cartoons and recipes from various artists and are in the process of putting them together a cookbook collection.   The proceeds of the book will support Food Banks in the United States and Canada.

I am not in the book but I promised those who asked that I would publish my recipe once the book was in print.  My Monkey Bread Recipe is the best you will find out there.  Some people call it “Pull Apart Cake” but Monkey Bread has a better ring to it.

Anyway, I got my copy this past week and love it.  Regulars here including George Ford (Addanac City) and Dr. Carlo Jose San Juan (Callous Comics) are in there with great entries. 

But I have to say the two that made me laugh the most was Dave Reddick of Legend of Bill and our own Aidan Casserly of Scapula.   Bill is a Barbarian so Dave’s recipe was “Big Barbarian Burgers”  First ingredient – “Beef”.  Second ingredient “Beef”.  Third ingredient – “Beef”.  Just like a real Barbarian.  And Aidan had Scapula performing community service by teaching us all how to make a pot of coffee.

So order your own copy and support the hungry.

1000th Twitter Follower

So I hit my 1000th Twitter Follower a few weeks back.  In twitter terms that really means I probably hit 200 legitimate followers once you dump out the pornbots and the “social media experts.”

As I noticed I was getting near, I decided to make a contest where I promised a caricature to the 1000th Twitter follower.  Oh you aren’t following me on Twitter yet and missed out.  Now whose fault is that?  Follow me.

Anyway, I was happy to report that number 1000 is an actual person.  And like 1/2 my readership outside the United States, resides in the UK.  So congratulations Robin, you were number 1000.

Not only is Robin a real person but he is also somewhat of a philanthropist.  He spends many waking hours involved in walks, marathons, and ebay auctions all to raise money for the  Great Ormond Street Hospital in London.  Great Ormond is famous for being given the rights to the play Peter Pan by J.M. Barrie.  So check out Robin on Twitter and one his website, Twelveby12 and tell him I said hi.

Oh…and his caricature.
