Soccer banners

I finally finished the banners for my U6 girls team and my U10 boys team. Overall I'm pretty happy with them, but I would have liked to scale the elements a little bigger to fill the banner up more. But I was working with 8 1/2" x 11" printouts on a 7' x 30" banner so it was tough.

Here is the Puppies banner:


And here's the Extreme banner:

My son is blasting the ball into the Herbalife and Meadow Gold logos!! In hindsight I could have extended the lightning bolts farther out.

Both banners were built onto PVC frames to provide rigidity while the kids parade around the field tomorrow. Hope we win the banner contest!!

Dee

Here was my attempt at Dee by Randy Rhoads. It's sloppy, but mostly because my classical technique is poor, and partially because the action on the classical is really high.

Tofu Musubi

My daughter wanted spam musubis for her class for the last day of preschool. Since there are two vegetarians in her class, I had to think of some other musubis to make.

We bought this tofu, already fried, and chopped em into spam sized slices. Then we marinated em in shoyu and sugar, fried em up again, and put em atop some brown rice with green furikake, and wrapped with nori. They turned out pretty good!!
