Bitter Orange (x)
Written and directed by Hope Larson
Starring Brie Larson, Brendan Hines and James Urbaniak

Despite her short skirt and bobbed hair, Myrtle’s no flapper—she’s a career girl with her eye on the prize. But over the course of an evening in the company of Jack, a bootlegger, she’s forced to ask herself what she really wants: a legitimate career, or success at any cost.

You should watch this, it’s lovely.

I’m going to reblog this because it’s easier than figuring out how to post it myself.

BITTER ORANGE!
This is a short film directed by Hope Larson (my wife) starring Brie Larson (Envy from Scott Pilgrim). Check it out!

Chocolate-Covered “Aunt” Ice Cream (Recipe)

hopelarson:

I spent several years draw a graphic novel adaptation of Madeline L’Engle’s A Wrinkle in Time, which will be out through FSG this October, and it was only a matter of time before I made a Wrinkle-themed ice cream. The first flavor that popped into my head was Chocolate-Covered “Aunt”. Ants and aunts both play important parts in the book, and chocolate-covered ants are a real candy that’s always fascinated me–though not enough to try them. Chocolate-Covered “Aunt” ice cream combines chocolate-covered Rice Krispies “ants” with a rich but delicate chocolate cream which, in my opinion, tastes like a classed-up Wendy’s Frosty.

Recipe after the break!

Vanilla Vegan Ice Cream

Hope has been working on this vegan ice cream recipe for a while. If you have (A) a high speed blender, and (B) an ice cream maker, please try it out and send feedback!!!

hopelarson:

People have been asking for a vegan ice cream recipe for a while, and here’s my first attempt. (And by first, I mean sixth.) It’s a smooth, rich ice cream suitable for topping a slice of pie or an ice cream cone. I’m not done tinkering with it, so if you make this, please send me feedback!

One caveat: You must use a Vitamix or other high-powered blender for this recipe, or it won’t work. A food processor will not work. Trust me on this!

Recipe after the break!
