I drew this after breakfast while Katie played Revenge of Shinobi, my favorite Sega Genesis game



META: eye loaf you, eyes in bread loaf delivered to you (fondly), sculpture, dough-based sculptural edition (w/edible signature, non-indelible), sculpture sketch (Bic), sketch for bakeable sculpture, loaf sculpture (w/eyes), sculptural mostly edible loaves (w/glass eyes), whole wheat eye loaves, rye eye loaf, giftwrapped loaf or loaves, "who loaves you baby", cinnamon raisin eyes, Princess Leia cinnamon-bun hair, half-digested coffee, "extracted half-digested coffee" sculpture: a liquid sculpture in a pyrex beaker, yuck, yukk, yuckk, "eye loaf you sticker" + "eye loaf you stationery" w/stationary eyes: the eyes that follow you wherever you go even though you move and they don't, olive oil prosciutto eyeloaf, a potato's eyes, recipes calling for a potato's eyes, recipes calling for old wrinkled potatoes w/stuff growing out of their eyes, an old potato's "eye growths" as an old potato's "antlers", a potato with "antlers" hanging on a wall instead of a deer's head. "Vegetable taxidermy", "vegan taxidermist (of vegetables)". Potato museum. A killed vegetable. Today for breakfast we shared: five (5) scrambled eggs cooked in a skillet with a couple tablespoons of milk, some olive oil, one (1) large yellow onion, and three (3) little wrinkly potatoes, "Katie and I are now out of onions and potatoes." Slaws, laws, and dads d'craw. ALSO: I finally won Revenge of Shinobi last week after never having won as an adolescent. Compared to most Genesis games, Revenge of Shinobi is extremely well-wrought, with excellent graphics, creative level designs, and great music. The game's intro screen features a 16-bit Sonny Chiba:



Some of the level bosses are humorously & illegally based on The Terminator & The Incredible Hulk (Level 4), Spider-Man & Batman (Level 6), and Godzilla (Level 7). Oh, and the game is EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO WIN, which made it very satisfying to win, finally. Until a couple weeks ago I hadn't played Genesis in over twelve years. Most of the games haven't aged well, but Revenge of Shinobi is still one of the best (most engrossing, replayable, challenging, and fun) side-scrolling console games ever made. (My favorite all-time side-scroller is still arcade Rolling Thunder, which inspired the Shinobi series and also features great music. Barcade has a Rolling Thunder machine.)
