All Recipes iPhone App

While laying in bed last night, I was browsing around the app store and discovered the All Recipes iPhone app. I’ve been a fan of the AllRecipes.com website for quite a while.

You can also click a button that says, “Spin Categories”. That button is currently replaced by the “View Matches” button.

My inlaws were who introduced me to Maine, and I wanted to give them something for their living room. They were very happy with the print and are now hanging it prominently on one of their […]

Seasons Greetings

For my father in law’s birthday which is Dec 26th, my family decided to take a winter walk. At the end we took a group shot. It’s been several years since there’s been a photo of us all together.

A Holiday Card, Charlie Brown

While I’ve never had to work at an agency that this high pressured about a holiday greeting. I’ve been on other projects with the same intensity. Not sure who made this little parody but it’s pretty funny and good.
