Boing Boing posted a link to a comic about a week long fast she did. I find her simple line work and cute, understated humor to be quite charming.
I was initially drawn in by the Ligne Claire style she uses, but stayed for the wit. The autobiographical nature of her comics is quite appealing, especially since much of her material is about food. Her first book will be all about food, I can't wait to pick it up. Anyway, check out her website
Song of the Day: Can't Tell Me Nothing, Kanye West - I think Kanye West is an amazing producer and beat maker. His rapping could use some work. The reason I link this video is because Zach Galifianakis somehow talked Kanye into letting him make the video. The results are amazing. I saw The Hangover today (starring Galifianakis) and was reminded of this video when the song was used in the sound track.

Ahaha! That is awesome. I especially like "the pear".
Excellent comic, and additionally, excellent song. I was first exposed to Kayne West on Offworld. They linked a handmade pixel art unofficial music video to his song Robocop.
Wonderful song, though the lyrics don't particularly inspire me.
There was a bit of synchronicity to the comic, as I had only just recently looked up the diet she uses, after it was mentioned in another comic. (It apparently makes for an interesting mixed drink with the addition of some bourbon.)
Oh my fucking god can I relate to these.

I also thought you might enjoy this tidbit of info...
