Are you a fan of graphic novels, fantasy, humor, and wonderful artwork? Check this out!
Resident G+ author and artist +Mar Mai is soon to publish the second part of her "The Dragon Tutor" series, aptly named "The Dragon Student". Before this happens, though, she will be treating us all with an ADDITIONAL book set in the same whimsical universe, "The Tale of Baozhai". Yesterday, she published a video teaser of both upcoming works – including a voice-over done by the always mysterious author herself. If you like what you see, I hope you share the word with friends and fellow graphic novel, fantasy, and humor fans!
Want to know more about +Mar Mai and her work? Check out the provided links below!
Link to her graphic novel, "The Dragon Tutor" on Amazon:

I highly encourage you to check out all the reviews to get a sense of the joy she elicits in readers of all types. Here is a link to the review (with pics) I published for her last year:

You would be remiss not to check out Mar's stream and view the other pieces of art and fun mini-stories she has posted, many of which revolve around her circle of friends here on G+. Here is an additional post (with pics) I penned about Mar and her art (with special mention of her equally talented sister +Mary C. who you should also be checking out):

Since +Mark Rodriguez provides such nice public images to work with, a Happy Birthday two-for was in order! It's a little known fact that Mark auditioned for this part. They deemed him "too scary" for audiences. 😉

I made a double batch of these earlier today. For me, this is what marks the official beginning of the fall season. My townhouse still smells AMAZING. Being the first batch of the year, I was quite happy they came out spot on! Not too mushy and not too firm.
Apple Dumplings
2 cups water
1 ½ cup sugar
¼ tsp cinnamon
¼ tsp nutmeg
8 drops red food coloring
Note: If using the gel food coloring, 4 drops is enough since the drops of gel are, at least with my drops, bigger thank liquid drops.
½ cup butter
2 cup flour
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
¾ cup shortening
½ cup milk
6 baking apples, peeled and cored
Note: Good baking apples are Jonagold, Granny Smith, Braeburn, Cortland, and Gala – I used gala since they were handy this time around; I have also used Honey Crisp in the past which are very sweet.
Syrup:
Mix first 5 ingredients, cook for 5 minutes. Remove from heat, add butter. Note: I just drop in the butter chopped into chunks and it melts pretty quickly, especially if already softened.
Sift dry ingredients, cut in shortening. I just use a fork and mash it in until it's all mixed well.
Add milk all at once, stir till moistened. (doesn't take long).
Separate the dough into 6 balls and roll individually to cover the apples (the original recipe had you roll out all the dough at once but this did not work well for me in portioning it out).
Place apple on rolled out dough, sprinkle with mixture of sugar cinnamon, nutmeg; dot with butter. Note: I sprinkled a little of the liquid from earlier and dotted with a part of a stick of butter I'd softened in the microwave – too much liquid sprinkled and it will get gooey to work with so careful.
Moisten edges of pastry, bring corners together in center, pinch edges together. Note: Using the liquid, I didn't need to moisten; also I barely ever have enough dough to overlap at the top of the apples (see below).
Place in ungreased 13 x 9 pan. Pour syrup over, bake at 375 for 35 – 40 minutes.
NOTE: If you are like me, you'll find it frustrating that when you go to put the pastry around the apples, it most likely won't fit. Apples these days must be humongous compared to days of old. This is why I started rolling out the dough separate for each apple. pull it up as far as it will go on the apple and when you are all done, get the apple in your hands and just kind of "press" the dough into shape molding it around the apple. In the end, you'll have a dough covered apple and it will be great. If it rips, just stretch it back together and pinch the edges together. It's all worth it in the end.
Baking time… Bigger apples require the upper end time to really get the apples tender. I've gone up to 45 minutes. However, keep an eye on them because you don't want to go so far as to burn or totally dry out your dough.

Jack & Sally Nightmare Before Christmas Soap Bars
I thought these were kind of cute for fans of the movie. 😉
Jack: SCENT: APPLE JACK & SUGAR COOKIE $6.50
This smells just like the yummiest apple you have ever had the privilege of eating and then some. It has hot and spicy top notes of cinnamon and cloves rounding down to the mellow scent of red apples with a splash of fresh baked sugar cookies.

Thought this one was funny and pretty cool for the person who knits. I would have skipped, or done differently, the background shading but the yarn skull is awesome. +Mellie B +miri dunn 😉

I think I might be more excited about this than even The Walking Dead premiere!

This video is made up of a series of television and movie scene reenactments featuring +Scott Cramer, +Keith Cramer, and several +Kristi Fahlsing cameos. All scenes were taken from suggestions made by you guys on the original post! We did the scene reenactments with whatever we had on-hand (plus a few borrowed items from the local big box store) and minimal time and planning.
Early showings of the video have been known to cause blindness, nausea, and a strange desire to watch Sharknado. You have been warned.
