I was making a salad and was overcome with creativity. Im sure that Mouse will appreciate this even though it eventually wound up IN the Guacamole....

Lwood,

you seriously need your own show on the Food Network.  you'd be the perfect foil for Sandra Lee.  sadly, i'm thinking it would have to be on AFTER 11 pm   ;)

I am not going to ask what the poo poo's are! Lwood, if I had to sit at your counter watching you create these delights, I think I would have to have alot of booze in front of me...lol ;D

Actually, the Poo was the most difficult thing. In keeping with the whole Food as Art theme, I rummaged around at some length before deciding on the most realistic and visually stunning  Edible Rat Turd.
[is THAT a great sentence or what ?]
My first thought was to use black peppercorns, but the size was all wrong and I already had red peppercorns as the eyes...
Next up was a whole cashew nut, and while the size and curve weres nicely realistic, the color was all wrong...
Various dried beans were considered but rejected for reasons of color, shape and piling ability..
I seriously considered chocolate chips but they were just too cutsie poo....
Some toasted coconut gave the unpleasant impression of a parasitic infection...
Unfortunately, the sesame sticks were all gone...as were the Rasins
In the end I hit the spice rack and went with Cardamom Pods, although a short bit of Vanilla bean may have been a better choice in retrospect.
Later that afternoon, when Pearmouse was poaching in a honey and wine Spa before his after dinner appearance , I hit upon the perfect  Gastronomic Rodentia Excreta : shelled Pistachio nuts. Perfect Color, Shape , Size, and Texture and they naturally clump together..

Until Next Time.....

Hmmm, after that last post by Lwood I feel very dirty.

And not the good kind of dirty either...

At the risk of making a repetitive 'play with your food' remark, I will now leave this thread.  :D
