Does anyone know where I can buy a krumkake iron locally? OR do I have to go all the way into the Metro area to get one?
Mother-in-law made them every year but she no longer can. I LOVE them and have decided to try making them myself and start a new holiday tradition.

My brush with fame

Last weekend I made my first pilgrimage to Crypticon, an annual horror convention in the Twin Cities.

For the closest shave ever, try a rusty machete!For the closest
shave ever, try
a rusty machete!
It was my first-ever horror convention and I had a blast. This should come as no surprise to anyone that's ever read this blog or listened to "Six Minutes Over Hutchinson." If it creeps, crawls, bleeds or oozes on-screen, I'm all over it.

I got some great deals on a couple movies I'd been wanting to buy forever, which is always fun. But the real treat was rubbing elbows with the celebs.

Here's me chillin' with Bill Moseley, who starred in Rob Zombie's "House of 1000 Corpses", "The Devil's Rejects," and "Halloween." He was a very nice, down-to-earth guy. I told him I could hardly recognize him sporting short hair, a clean shave and not killing anyone.

Recognize that guy on the left? Don't feel bad if you don't. Steve Dash played Jason in most of "Friday the 13th: Part 2." The veteran stuntman/actor wore a burlap bag over his head the whole time. Apparently he wasn't told about this part of the job until he arrived on the set. Dash also said he didn't know Jason had no dialog at the time he accepted the gig. Dash said he was offered the part of Jason for Part 3 but passed on it, a decision he now regrets.
