How to ... what?!

This is a page from a Children's Encyclopaedia published in the 1960's ...


Just what you always wanted to know? - LOL

yep - I gotta try this one day!

... and I thought there was some weird stuff on those "how to" type websites! LOL

"what how to websites?" you ask ... those geeky ones that have stuff like how to build the starship Enterprise out of useless office supplies which I found a while back, and when I just went looking for it I also found it on here as well ... along with another version, using paperclips - lol

hmmm ... I want to make one of those office supply models of the Enterprise ... some of those phasers/etc look pretty cool too ... so do lots of things - lol - one could get lost in those websites for hours ... days ... years! LOL

Something Fishy ...

This is weird ...



This kind of looks like something from some weird sci fi TV series that DH and I started watching this week ... except in the tv show it was cockroaches walking in some funny crop circle type pattern ... maybe the goldfish are trying to make crop circles in their pond? LOL



(actually I think they are just following each other while they swim around waiting for someone to throw them some food ;-)

What the ... ?



Oh yes ... looks gross eh? ... greebly green and other weird greyish purpley colours, and that inky black goo ...

- what could it be?

and would you EAT it?!

well ...

yes!

- it is what happens when DD (Dear Daughter) decides to cook merangues, and decides she wants to use BLACK food colouring in them! LOL



They may have looked a bit strange (ok - a LOT strange) ... but they tasted quite ok ... in fact they were rather nice actually ;-)

If it was, say, fabric instead of food, or if you are weird like me and don't mind odd coloured food - the colour is actually quite nice ... lol
