Comment on A Galaxy Nexus Review by Primo

That’s a pretty awesome jump to the smartphone world. It will be interesting to see if owning the Galaxy Nexus will affect your use of the Transformer. I’ve been debating whether or not I wanted to pick up a Transormer Prime (if I can ever find one) but I wonder how much I will use it considering I own a laptop and smartphone. I definitely prefer browsing the internet on the couch with a tablet, but I was wondering if there are other applications where a tablet could provide the optimal experience.

Primo, I think if you’ve got ICS on your Nexus S already, I (personally) think you’ve got the right idea. We know the Samsung Galaxy SII and the iPhone 4s have pretty good cameras, so maybe that sets the bar a bit higher for the next generation of phones. I didn’t have a smartphone already and I really did want ICS right away and out of the box, so I took the plunge despite the camera.

I’ve been on the fence about this phone. The underwhelming camera might be the deal breaker for me, plus I’m pretty satisfied with my Nexus S with ICS. Thanks for the review!

Comment on Almond butter and chocolate cookies by bethany actually

Ooh! Easiest recipe for peanut butter cookies ever. You ready?

1 cup peanut butter
1 cup sugar (white or brown)
1 egg

Mix it all together, roll into 1-inch balls (it will make 12-15), place on baking sheet, squash with a fork, bake at 350F for 8-12 min.

They’re very rich and yummy. You can add chocolate chips if you like, or replace the peanut butter with almond butter.

[...] I made a mistake in buying the 801, as I think it might fit in my crow-quill holder but I have no idea where that is at the moment. It does fit over a thin paintbrush but the brush bristles do tend to affect things! The 700 arrived damaged, and doesn’t work. (Edit: I contacted Simon at Scribblers.co.uk and he sent along another 700 pronto. I tried it, and liked it.) [...]

Marcelino: I haven’t tried the Nikko pen, but it looks a lot like a Hunt crowquill. I find I have a hard time getting the ink to flow nicely from the crowquill.

Wonderful! I like drawing with pen and ink too.
¿have you ever try with Nikko maru pen? A interesting alternative to Hunt 104, also the black india ink Rembrandt from Royal Talens .
