So I wanted to make some homemade bagels...an area of baking that I have never attempted before. After reading several recipes, I decided that it was too much of a hassle and that is the reason why they are so expensive to buy. I have these mini angle food cake pans and thought, hey what if I make some bread dough, roll it into a tube and bake it in the mini cake pan? The result: bread that looks like an angel food cake. They smell good. They are round and they have a whole. All of which are good bagel qualities. But will it fool the boys into thinking that they are bagels? I will have to let you know tomorrow...
On another note, I am almost finished with that henna linoleum block. I had to take a break to let my hands rest a bit. And I sort of stabbed my finger. Nothing major. Only one swear word and hardly any bleeding. I'll jump right on that horse tonight after the boys are sleeping!
I also had this great idea for Nathan's new office. He has some old Mac posters with Ghandi, Picasso, Einstein and Miles Davis on them. He gave the Jim Henson one away....what a dork! I have always thought that it would be AMAZING to make Muppets for a living. Anyway I am going to paint some canvases a solid color and then mount the posters to the painted canvas. The posters are an odd size, which means custom framing. Everyone knows that is expensive as H#$$! So wish me luck. They look fabulous in my head. Then again most everything looks fabulous in my head. Reality is another story. :) I think I am going to play around with a similar piece of paper and a junk canvas first. Don't want to ruin the Mac posters! They are so great.....
