Wood Staining Segment
Click HERE to check out one of the segments on wood staining I shot last month for Minwax.
Century Eggs / Whoa
Pictured after the jump (because while this stuff doesn't bother me, I may be in the minority here) is something called a "Century Egg", which I've heard mentioned from time to time, particularly in reference to congee mix-ins (according to some, congee isn't complete without the addition of one of these).
Jonas Madness

I also love these kinds of events because they frequently involve champagne and small, sugary things.
