Lemon juice
4 large eggs
Nuts
1 bottle tequila

Sample the tequila to check quality.
Take a large bowl, check the tequila again.
To be sure it is of the highest quality, pour one level cup and drink.
Repeat.

Turn on the electric mixer.
Beat one cup of butter in a large fluffy bowl.
Add one teaspoon of sugar. Beat again.
At this point it's best to make sure the tequila is still OK.
Try another cup... just in case.
Turn off the mixerer thingy.
Break 2 leggs and add to the bowl and chuck in the cup of dried fruit.

Pick the frigging fruit up off floor.

If the fried druit gets stuck in the beaterers just pry it loose with a
drewscriver.

HOT CHICKS in a Documentary

A work in progress of the new documentary I am working on called the LAST WORD about a few bay area lady spoken word artists (some of whom you might be very familiar with and some may be new to you) will be showing this coming THURSDAY DEC. 15th 7pm at SFSU Creative Arts/ RADIO and TELEVISION Building, STUDIO ONE.

Its really a very personal project, more like a love letter to women artists I really admire, social change art, and artists looking for spaces to nuture their art and in return their communities.

As usual I have put my life on hold and my heart and soul into this project. Its always nice to get feedback and not feel like your life's work had been created in a vacuum so come and show your solidarity to this humble soul on a mission.
