chelyha left the room
buci131: maybe, I'm aiming for the early show, Cheryl
jakmiami left the room
buci131: ok, don't shoot me--what was the recipe for cheese again?
ladytex49 ponders the meaning of life
chenoa_2b: now what is this?
jude: Ah...eyeball?
buci131: turkey glaze for Eva
ladytex49 faints on buci131
jude: yikes! I came in the middle of a horror movie!
sylsnovelties: heeheehee
buci131: heehee
buci131: oh, that's good Jude
chenoa_2b: are we just doing t he glaze? Or the whole turkey? lool
techi_mom56: laugh!
buci131: I just want the glaze--I've got the turkey
jude: Remember the "Attach of the Eye Creatures"?
chenoa_2b: I will have you know that was a laugh with a hiccup in the middle! lol
Fearless Leader: ok
jude: Attach? Oh, my...Attack I think.
buci131: and Jude is attaching eye creatures to herself
ladytex49 listens to ladytex49
jude:
Fearless Leader: are we ready?
snooks2312: yup
buci131: Don't shoot me but
ladytex49: yes m'am...
Fearless Leader: this dirty cane here
buci131: what was the recipe for cheese again
chenoa_2b: yep, but I think there might be a full moon out.
Fearless Leader: is my mix for melted cheddar cheese for cheese burgers
Fearless Leader: and for the toasty top on bread
buci131: I think that's going to be perfect
Fearless Leader: The mix
jude: Braided loaf...very nice.
chenoa_2b: ya gonna use burnt umber or something?
Fearless Leader: is mostly translucent
chenoa_2b: got that
Fearless Leader: with some orange mixed from scratch
Fearless Leader: not packaged orange
ladytex49 knows that buci131 knows that the truth is out there
buci131: cad yell and cad red?
Fearless Leader: yellow and red, to maintain the translucent quality
Fearless Leader: cad if you can, zinc if you can
buci131: or zinc yell
buci131: ok
Fearless Leader: doesn't even really matter for cad yellow is more warm
buci131: yep
Fearless Leader: and we're warming this up with the red
buci131: got it
Fearless Leader: so it's sort of moot really when mixing cad yellow with a hot color
Fearless Leader: so
Fearless Leader: then there's a bit of burnt umber
Fearless Leader: just a eye booger worth
Fearless Leader: in comparison
ladytex49: more technical terms here...
chenoa_2b: I knew it!
Fearless Leader: let me cut a thin slice of this and I'm going to mix it with TLS
Fearless Leader: and I have a wonky face mold here
Fearless Leader: that will work as a turkey back
Fearless Leader: and we're going to brush the turkey back
buci131: heehee--you were right Jude
Fearless Leader: with this toasty color
Fearless Leader: so if there's no questions I'll get to it, who's shooting shots and saving logs?
jude: eyes, huh? hehehehe
buci131: I got shots
ladytex49: fku shots??
Fearless Leader: log duty
buci131: oh, you mean on the computer? I thought you meant tequila
Fearless Leader: who's got log duty
chenoa_2b: I have been doing it.
sylsnovelties: I'll do the logs if nobody is doing them
Fearless Leader: thank you honey
sylsnovelties: Oh, okie, Carolyn is doing them.
Fearless Leader: I'll go mix this melted cheddar cheese with some TLS
chenoa_2b: do we get to see that part?
Fearless Leader: for those who don't know what that is, your claymates will tell you while I mix,
Fearless Leader: yes, mixing I will go....
Fearless Leader: see the smear
chenoa_2b: Taking a thin slice of the mix
chenoa_2b: yes
Fearless Leader: that's what gives the bread cane
Fearless Leader: a toasty top
snooks2312: way too cool
buci131: drop of TLS
chenoa_2b: putting a dab of TLS on the slice
buci131: mixing
chenoa_2b: what is she mixing this on?
ladytex49: a tile I think..
buci131: looks like buther paper
buci131: butcher paper
buci131: that's what it looks like to me or something similar
techi_mom56: awesome...i havent told my mom what i am up to...but shes got to be wondering...she does doll houses..some loaves of bread would be cool for xmas
Fearless Leader: now don't you think we should add more brown to this?
buci131: absolutely
Fearless Leader: it's a bit too yellow
Fearless Leader: ok
ladytex49: oops yeah...buthcer paper...or wax paper...
chenoa_2b: ok
buci131: roach turd size
chenoa_2b: adding a couple of rat turds to the mix! lol
ladytex49: you techy you...
buci131: more TLS
buci131: mix mix mix
buci131: that looks better already
chenoa_2b: But she has only mixed about half of the slice so far.
buci131: yep
buci131: perhaps just checking the recipe for turkey glaze color before doing it all
Fearless Leader: ok that seems brown enough
Fearless Leader: let's brush it over this wonky face mold
Fearless Leader: and see how it looks
chenoa_2b: what are you mixing on? And why only half of the slice?
Fearless Leader: once cured it'll look way different
Fearless Leader: for the translucent liquid sculpey will go clear
Fearless Leader: so make sure your mix has no lumps
Fearless Leader: I'm using ceramic tiles
chenoa_2b: ok
Fearless Leader: I got a bunch of broken tiles for free
Fearless Leader: I only used half a slice
Fearless Leader: because I didn't need more
chenoa_2b: ok
Fearless Leader: I'm not doing a whole bird or a series of birds, so a little bit is ok
Fearless Leader: any other questions?
buci131: nope
chenoa_2b: nope
Fearless Leader: ok, now I'm going to brush this over this mold back and then I'm going to put it in the oven right away
Fearless Leader: hopefully we will all be here in a half an hour
Fearless Leader: to see the outcome
Fearless Leader: ok?
chenoa_2b: yep
sylsnovelties: ok
buci131: maybe, no promises on the half hour thing
buci131: she's using a paint brush to apply it to the mold
chenoa_2b: she is using a brush to put the glaze on?
Fearless Leader: eyeshadow brush
ladytex49: I wish I could but I am gonna hafta go...am sooo tired...Thanks again for a great demo...good night everyone...
Fearless Leader: and there it is glazed
ladytex49 waves at Fearless Leader
chenoa_2b: Nite lady
buci131: later Loretta
sylsnovelties: Nite
ladytex49 left the room
snooks2312: nite Loretta
chenoa_2b: Then you just wash out the brush?
techi_mom56: sitting here playing with clay..think i made a phsycodelic lobster....giggle
sylsnovelties: heeheehee
chenoa_2b: lol
buci131: you're gonna hafta take a pic of that one Nancy
Fearless Leader: I wash out the brush after rubbing as much clay off of it as possible
techi_mom56: i will if it turns out...
chenoa_2b: ok
Fearless Leader: I'll go put this in the oven and will post the result on a webpage
buci131: goody
buci131: banana split and pizza
buci131: what a meal!
chenoa_2b: ok, you just have a log of toasty color or chedder cheese hanging around, just waiting for TLS?
sylsnovelties: There she goes, tempting us with food again!
buci131: uses it for cheeseburgers and bread
buci131: really makes the bread look great
chenoa_2b: My bread ended up looking stupid!
Fearless Leader: ok
sylsnovelties: Her bread is excellent!
Fearless Leader: it's in the oven
Fearless Leader: it's the toasty top
Fearless Leader: that's what does it
sylsnovelties: I have a question.
Fearless Leader: yes
Fearless Leader: Syl
sylsnovelties: Can you use this TLS method on the bread too, or is the sliced one better?
Fearless Leader: sliced is better
chenoa_2b: you have a log of this chedder cheese mix just sitting around waiting for TLS.
chenoa_2b: Lost me! lol
sylsnovelties: ok, thanks
Fearless Leader: for there is more control with smearing the toasty top down the sides
buci131: so on a braid like this you
buci131: put the cheese mix on top of the log
buci131: then braid it, right?
Fearless Leader: I have this "melted" cheddar cheese log around for a number of reasons
Fearless Leader: for cooked mini food
Fearless Leader: melted cheddar has a translucency
Fearless Leader: that non melted cheddar cheese does not
buci131: reduce and braid, I guess
chenoa_2b: ok, but that is the main idea. YOu mix up a big bunch of it, and slice what you need
Fearless Leader: it's toasty top for bread
Fearless Leader: I have many canes that are like this
Fearless Leader: they are used for a number of things
Fearless Leader: like if I need to make salad
Fearless Leader: I have a bunch of green mixed with various amounts of translucent
Fearless Leader: so I can take different darknesses of green
Fearless Leader: stack sheets
Fearless Leader: cut off some stripes
Fearless Leader: smear them on a tile
Fearless Leader: razor them up and I have salad greens
Fearless Leader: sushi fixings
chenoa_2b: Now that makes sense!
Fearless Leader: citrus peelings
Fearless Leader: I have them done ahead of time
chenoa_2b: I am gobsmacked! lol
Fearless Leader: I have raw meat and cooked meat already mixed
Fearless Leader: if I need a cooked hamburger
Fearless Leader: I take a slice of cooked roast beef
Fearless Leader: and mince it up
Fearless Leader: works perfectly
Fearless Leader: should
Fearless Leader: take a slice of that cooked roast beef
Fearless Leader: and mix it with TLS
Fearless Leader: your gravy will match your dinner
Fearless Leader: meat
Fearless Leader: see?
Fearless Leader: wanna see?
Fearless Leader: LOL
sylsnovelties: yes, please
chenoa_2b: But I have problems with getting the colors right. I only get the basics, blue, red, yellow, white and black
chenoa_2b: Yes!
Fearless Leader: with the basics
snooks2312: i do i do
Fearless Leader: you can make anything
chenoa_2b: But the right color!
Fearless Leader: After I show you the hamburger
Fearless Leader: then I want to show you my color cards
Fearless Leader: ok?
chenoa_2b: I read instructions, and it talks about beige and such.
Fearless Leader: we got to talk about mixing color
chenoa_2b: Ok
Fearless Leader: screw beige
Fearless Leader: all beige is
Fearless Leader: white
Fearless Leader: and brown
Fearless Leader: there
Fearless Leader: you got beige
Fearless Leader: barbie skin color
chenoa_2b: lol
Fearless Leader: we can mix our own colors
snooks2312: flat and boring
Fearless Leader: I have a section on mixing brown from the three primary colors
Fearless Leader: on the site
Fearless Leader: also...
sylsnovelties: I did that accidentally. heeheehee
Fearless Leader: hold up let me get something
sylsnovelties: I was trying for a different color, I don't remember which one, and came up with a pretty brown.
Fearless Leader: this
Fearless Leader: is the Cook's Mix
Fearless Leader: a bead box with cured mini food
chenoa_2b: Oh! NJ's deli! lol
buci131: oh
Fearless Leader: that's the meat section
Fearless Leader: hey I got Spam for the Hawaiians who love to eat that stuff
buci131: what do you use the cured minis for? do you put mini food together that way?
chenoa_2b: Hey that is good in sandwiches! lol
sylsnovelties: I love spam!
chenoa_2b: yah! Syl!
buci131: you guys are scaring me here
sylsnovelties: I like spam and eggs!
snooks2312: I love it fried up
sylsnovelties: heeheehee
buci131: green spam and eggs
chenoa_2b: with cheese! lol
sylsnovelties: Now, I'm hungry for spam
buci131: looks like gyro meat
Fearless Leader: raw hamburger looks different from cooked
Fearless Leader: so if you're doing a bbq prep mini meal scene
Fearless Leader: you need to mix raw ground beef and cooked
sylsnovelties: You have some raw hamburger?
sylsnovelties: Oh, neato
buci131: NJ what do you use the cooked mini food parts for? Just for scenes?
chenoa_2b: did you use your food processor to get the little c hunks? Is that raw meat chop?
sylsnovelties: I love that raw hamburger! heeheehee
Fearless Leader: The mini foods is my favorite thing to do when I'm just using up scraps
Fearless Leader: I want to do mini food beads
sylsnovelties: Don't get scared Eva, I don't eat it raw! heeheehee
chenoa_2b: How do you do tortillas? Flour ones?
Fearless Leader: do mini tea pots done as bell peppers and stuff like that
sylsnovelties: I've been working on those, Carolyn.
buci131: heehee--good way to get sick
Fearless Leader: The little chunks for mini food is cut up with the exacto knife
chenoa_2b: Any tips!
buci131: stuffed bell peppers
sylsnovelties: I'm still figuring it out. heeheehee
chenoa_2b: I am supposed to be doing a Mex cocina
Fearless Leader: the tortillas, the flour ones need dots of brown eyeshadow
Fearless Leader: on off white clay
Fearless Leader: to get the cooked areas
Fearless Leader: so it's a little tricky
chenoa_2b: All of my eye shadow is shimmery
Fearless Leader: but if you're doing a stack
Fearless Leader: you only have to do the top one, scrape pastel chalk
Fearless Leader: and mix you a brown that way
chenoa_2b: got that!
chenoa_2b: I used it on pears and apples
Fearless Leader: ok, now to take roast beef
Fearless Leader: and chop it up for hamburger
buci131: couldn't you do a little cane of off white with some brown jelly roll canes in it
sylsnovelties: cook a piece of brown just in a glob and grate it. Works good.
buci131: for the tortillas?
chenoa_2b: Brown? what color of brown!?! lol
sylsnovelties: That is what I'm experimenting with Eva.
buci131: like that brown cane there on screen
snooks2312: red onions
chenoa_2b: are those onions?
buci131: diff sizes of logs, just a few, wrapped up in off white color
buci131: may have to play with tortillas too
buci131: ah well--so much to do
buci131: yep, those look like red onions
buci131: well, except my pic on the webcam has really bad coloring
chenoa_2b: tamalies and enchiladas, salsa...
buci131: so I'm never quite sure what color these things are
sylsnovelties: If I get my tortillas to look decent, I'll send a pic. Lord knows it took me long enough to get the real ones to look decent! heeheehee
buci131: salsa--lots of TLS with chunks of red, green and trans with white
Fearless Leader: cooked meat
Fearless Leader: isn't just one color
Fearless Leader: there's a pattern the muscle makes
Fearless Leader: you can get that look with stacking sheets
Fearless Leader: and doing a ying yang fold like this
Fearless Leader: for the roast beef slice
Fearless Leader: if you wanted to do a whole roast beef with some slices coming off of it
Fearless Leader: take a cane like this and do two things
Fearless Leader: first
Fearless Leader: take some dental floss
chenoa_2b: Now why do I see roast beast done like tiger skin?
Fearless Leader: and tie it around the roast beef
Fearless Leader: like you have string on your roast beef from the store
Fearless Leader: and then brush the top of your roast beef with some brown color paint, powder or TLS smear
chenoa_2b: what is the smear?
Fearless Leader: then slice off a couple of slices off of that roast and put it on a platter
Fearless Leader: TLS and a bit of burnt umber is what I'd go for
Fearless Leader: when I refer to a smear
sylsnovelties: For that rare look?
chenoa_2b: How do yo make burnt umber?
Fearless Leader: it's always TLS with some color
Fearless Leader: use the three primary colors
Fearless Leader: to get brown
chenoa_2b: ok
Fearless Leader: it's on the Color Card section
Fearless Leader: this is the color card for Brown
Fearless Leader: there's three primary colors to the left
Fearless Leader: each different piece there
Fearless Leader: is mixed with something along with the primary colors
Fearless Leader: mixed with translucent to get Coke and Ice Tea
Fearless Leader: mixed with pearl, gold, gold and pearl, etc
chenoa_2b: I think my brain is pre kindergarten.
Fearless Leader: one part yellow, blue and red
Fearless Leader: gives you something very close to packaged burnt umber
Fearless Leader: close enough for government work
buci131: really? That's cool
chenoa_2b: Does this mean I can quite grinding my teeth? lol
Fearless Leader: now
Fearless Leader: burnt umber is a little different than our three part primary brown
Fearless Leader: but really
Fearless Leader: no one is going to bust you for that
Fearless Leader: relax
Fearless Leader: if you have the three primary colors
buci131: no teeth grinding allowed
Fearless Leader: and black and white
Fearless Leader: you got it pretty much covered
Fearless Leader: I'd invest in the pretty mica clays after that
Fearless Leader: pearl
chenoa_2b: I know I am obsessive and a perfectionist.
Fearless Leader: gold
Fearless Leader: silver
Fearless Leader: copper
Fearless Leader: and then take those basic colors you have
Fearless Leader: and just
Fearless Leader: go
chenoa_2b: Pearl, gold, silver and copper
Fearless Leader: nuts
chenoa_2b: Translucent.
Fearless Leader: fushia experiment
Fearless Leader: what a bother that was
Fearless Leader: man
chenoa_2b: are those glued onto card stock?
Fearless Leader: those are my bread crumbs to find my way out of the forest of color mixing
Fearless Leader: make a record of what you're mixing and adding
Fearless Leader: it's like a computer flow chart
Fearless Leader: make cards of your blends too
Fearless Leader: like this one
Fearless Leader: then you can repeat what you've discovered
Fearless Leader: twisted blends
Fearless Leader: make sea shells
Fearless Leader: and animal prints
sylsnovelties: If you have some kind of turquoise color and want a dark cobalt blue, what could you add to it?
chenoa_2b: I never did get a amonite
snooks2312: I'm gonna have to bail ladies, am no longer seeing straight
snooks2312: too tired
Fearless Leader: nighty night
sylsnovelties: Nitey Nite
chenoa_2b: ok nighty...
buci131: nighty night Jan
snooks2312: will see ya tomorrow night
snooks2312: probably later one
snooks2312: night
jude: Night.
snooks2312 left the room
chenoa_2b: abalone!
Fearless Leader: exactly
Fearless Leader: one of the abalone experiments
sylsnovelties: Anyone got an answer for my blue question?
chenoa_2b: how to make turquise into cobalt?
buci131: I don't know--did you try a little red and maybe black?
sylsnovelties: yes
Fearless Leader: hold up
sylsnovelties: I haven't tried anything yet
Fearless Leader: I didn't see your question
Fearless Leader: what's the noodle?
buci131: turqoise to cobalt blue
buci131: turquoise
buci131: is it possible?
Fearless Leader: turquoise has green in it
Fearless Leader: yellow is in green
chenoa_2b: That was what I was thinking
Fearless Leader: colbalt is cool cool cool
Fearless Leader: hmmm
Fearless Leader: I wish I could see the starting color
Fearless Leader: then I'd have a better idea
buci131: is the packaged turq Syl?
Fearless Leader: is it a blue turquoise or a more green one
Fearless Leader: they are not consistent with mixed packaged clay those DOGS
sylsnovelties: blue one
Fearless Leader: grrrr
chenoa_2b: like a sky blue?
sylsnovelties: no label on it.
Fearless Leader: ok
Fearless Leader: do this
sylsnovelties: Umm, no more turquoise than sky blue
Fearless Leader: Here are my blue color cards
Fearless Leader: that middle row there is more green
Fearless Leader: sea foam green
Fearless Leader: then there's different variations of blue
Fearless Leader: see those little circles there
Fearless Leader: take some turquoise
Fearless Leader: and roll out a sheet
Fearless Leader: cut out some circles
Fearless Leader: then what other colors do you have there to mix with it?
Fearless Leader: my concern is if we add red
Fearless Leader: it'll come out brown
Fearless Leader: for a greenish blue
Fearless Leader: is already yellow and blue
Fearless Leader: add red
Fearless Leader: we got brown
Fearless Leader: we can get brown from a number of angles
buci131: that's part of my problem--photog mentality
Fearless Leader: so if we are to cool a color down
Fearless Leader: black
buci131: you want to get rid of green you use a red filter
Fearless Leader: red I was thinking but monitor mix and clay mix are different
buci131: yep
Fearless Leader: my self
Fearless Leader: crimson
Fearless Leader: some black, some crimson
Fearless Leader: mix with the turquoise and then see
buci131: isn't crimson red with black in it?
Fearless Leader: that's Ox Blood, like bento boxes
buci131: or is it red with blue and black in it
buci131: oh
Fearless Leader: I guess it depends on the amount of black to red ratio
Fearless Leader: but I'd do little circles
Fearless Leader: with a small heart of red and black
Fearless Leader: and mix and see
Fearless Leader: or little leaves, any measure that is constant
Fearless Leader: we can only figure this out by sitting down and doing as many variations as we can think of
buci131: Oh, is the turkey done yet?--I'm hungry
chenoa_2b: duh! log save! lol
Fearless Leader: and keep track of the measures
Fearless Leader: let me check the turkey
Fearless Leader: LOL
buci131: heehee
chenoa_2b: I wonder if NJ is left or right handed?
Fearless Leader: I put a finger dabbing of floor polish on it
Fearless Leader: right handed
sylsnovelties: Sorry, I was looking to see if I could read what it said on the piece of label that is on the clay
buci131: oh, is this it
Fearless Leader: but ambidextrious in most things
buci131: oh, that's looks pretty good
chenoa_2b: I swear you think like a lefty. Smart as a tack and talented! lol
sylsnovelties: That looks like a roasted turkey!
buci131: goody--thanks bunches NJ
Fearless Leader: I love how the molds do that
Fearless Leader: look like it's sculpted instead of indented
Fearless Leader: dig
Fearless Leader: about the bird
Fearless Leader: a tooth brush
Fearless Leader: to the skin please
Fearless Leader: for the just plucked look
buci131: ooh, thank you
Fearless Leader: then brush
buci131: great idea
Fearless Leader: dark at the ankles
Fearless Leader: and wing tips
Fearless Leader: for they cook dark
Fearless Leader: not a lot of meat there
Fearless Leader: the tall breast ridge too, a little darker
chenoa_2b: syl, can you save the logs? my computer is scanning
sylsnovelties: sure
Fearless Leader: top of the thighs
buci131: but I can use the glaze to make that part darker, right?
buci131: those parts
Fearless Leader: ya ya
Fearless Leader: exactly
chenoa_2b: Thanks!
Fearless Leader: ok, now how would you glaze a pineapple upside down cake?
Fearless Leader: what colors?
Fearless Leader: with TLS?
jude: Hmm....I'm wondering how NJ's duck l'orange turns out!
buci131: similar, wouldn't they be?
buci131: cause you make it with brown sugar
buci131: or similar to the toasty bread top
chenoa_2b: and the yellow pinapple
Fearless Leader: for that caramel glaze
Fearless Leader: a bit of yellow
Fearless Leader: a bit of burnt umber
chenoa_2b: Curried rice
Fearless Leader: melted cheddar cheese and white
Fearless Leader: with TLS
Fearless Leader: it's not translucent Curry
Fearless Leader: but
Fearless Leader: for Sweet and Sour
Fearless Leader: red and burnt umber
Fearless Leader: yum
Fearless Leader: now
jude: Do you put pineapple in your sweet and sour?
Fearless Leader: I call out and have it delivered
Fearless Leader: and eat what ever they put in
Fearless Leader: San Francisco, Chinese food capital of America
jude: LOL
Fearless Leader: I can get Sushi delivered
Fearless Leader: if I had the money
jude: I wish we had one here.
chenoa_2b: German Chinese is better! lol
Fearless Leader: now
Fearless Leader: about glazes
Fearless Leader: what else is glazed
Fearless Leader: in food
chenoa_2b: Ham,
jude: Carrots!
sylsnovelties: donuts
chenoa_2b: beans, green beans.
Fearless Leader: cinnimon rolls
buci131: Syl stole my answer
chenoa_2b: Baked beans
jude: Syl zeros right into donuts. LOL!
Fearless Leader: and what gravy's can you think of
chenoa_2b: Sos!
chenoa_2b: lol
Fearless Leader: light for chicken fried steak
sylsnovelties: Cream gravy
jude: Hollandaise.
buci131: cream gravy for Chicken Fried Steak
Fearless Leader: red gravy with rice
techi_mom56: laugh...hubby loves sos...
jude: Spaghetti gravy.
Fearless Leader: dark roast beef gravy which I'm going to show you how to do right now
chenoa_2b: beef gravy
buci131: Ok, I gotta go--need my beauty sleep before The Kid disturbs it in the morning
buci131: Syl, can you pick up screen shots?
sylsnovelties: Nite Eva
jude: Nigt Eva.
sylsnovelties: Sure Eva
buci131: thanks
Fearless Leader: Nighty Night Eva
buci131: Nighty Night all
techi_mom56: g'nite
buci131 left the room
chenoa_2b: And what about chocolate sauce?
jude: One of God's gifts.
sylsnovelties: That's the best sauce!
Fearless Leader: Chocolate sause is burnt umber and TLS
chenoa_2b: That and strawberries! lol
jude: What is that?
techi_mom56: oh thats so great...
chenoa_2b: so less TLS would make choco frosting?
jude: Oh, the cake.
Fearless Leader: that's just burnt umber
Fearless Leader: TLS
Fearless Leader: and it's frosting
Fearless Leader: more TLS
Fearless Leader: it's chocolate syrup
jude: Hmm...I could make some mini Hershey bars, huh?
chenoa_2b: Molasass?
sylsnovelties: I could eat some mini hershey bars.
jude: Yum!
chenoa_2b: I use that in Veal Scalapinie (sp)?
chenoa_2b: That would be a bit different color of gravy, beef gravy
jude: There is country gravy, too.
jude: Looks like an Oreo!
chenoa_2b: And what about the stuff th ey put on egg foo young?
jude: Delicious!
sylsnovelties: I haven't eaten that in ages
jude: cornstarch to thicken and chicken broth.
chenoa_2b: lol I used brown gravy mix and added soy sauce! lol
Fearless Leader: To get your gravy to match your dinner meat
jude: Used to go to a place that had shrimp foo yung. So, good.
Fearless Leader: use your dinner meat and TLS for your gravy
Fearless Leader: it's easier that way
jude: Right, makes all kinds of sense.
jude: She does these things so quickly.
Fearless Leader: now through the magic of web cam
jude: I just love the peas.
chenoa_2b: I am going to have to just jump in and start mucking around with th e dang stuff! lol
jude: Yes!

Fearless Leader: watch
Fearless Leader: I can turn it over and the top stays put
jude: Fantastic.
Fearless Leader: stew pot with top

Fearless Leader: wok with wok cook gear
jude: I'm making up words again.
sylsnovelties: You better believe it!
jude: It looks so much like metal.

Fearless Leader: make a lump
Fearless Leader: then cover with peas
Fearless Leader: or noodles
Fearless Leader: don't do the whole thing
Fearless Leader: where folks can't see
Fearless Leader: we're going to put that filler clay on a plate anyway
Fearless Leader: so just do the upper layer of any mini mound of things that are labor intensive
Fearless Leader: like peas and nooldes, and rice
Fearless Leader: ok?
chenoa_2b: ok
Fearless Leader: now I'm going to chop up these noodles
chenoa_2b: brb

Fearless Leader: instead of it being flat
Fearless Leader: what we see
Fearless Leader: it's raised up
techi_mom56: yes...like my eyes thing tonite
Fearless Leader: that's how this one got made
Fearless Leader: I saw an image
Fearless Leader: and put clay on the back of the sheet
Fearless Leader: where I needed it to be raised up
Fearless Leader: and then I pressed down
sylsnovelties: Ahhh
Fearless Leader: where I needed it to go down
Fearless Leader: if we experiment with two colors only
Fearless Leader: doing jelly roll blends
sylsnovelties: I thought you were pushing a sheet of clay on a knick knack!
Fearless Leader: it can be seen easier
Fearless Leader: I was pulling the Knick Knack out of the clay mirror image
sylsnovelties: Right.
Fearless Leader: ok, here's another example

techi_mom56: i can see that...
Fearless Leader: my whole spooky series fell on blind eyes

Fearless Leader: This is called
Fearless Leader: YOW what am I doing HERE?
jude: LOL
sylsnovelties: heeheehee
jude: I see a skill helling!
techi_mom56: no imagination...doesnt follow the rules....they dont like it...
jude: er..yelling
jude: Right, Nancy.
sylsnovelties: I love the different colors everywhere on this.
jude: There is no room for imagination and experimentation for them.
Fearless Leader: another one I'm going to show you
Fearless Leader: that creeped folks out
techi_mom56: its like people who can look at a piece of twisted wood and see elves and such....
sylsnovelties: I love that Nancy!
jude: That is great!
jude: Reminds me of Mexican pottery.
jude: Bright colors.
techi_mom56: there are alot of amazing artists in the northwest...and not just the usual stuff
Fearless Leader: take chalk
Fearless Leader: and scrape it
Fearless Leader: so it's dust
Fearless Leader: then take your clay shaper like this one
Fearless Leader: and dip it in the chalk powder
Fearless Leader: and press it into white sculpey
sylsnovelties: good idea!
Fearless Leader: and this is what you get
Fearless Leader: on the sides the chalk dust was brushed on
Fearless Leader: with a make up blush brush
jude: All those colors are from chalk?
techi_mom56: awesome...now i want some colored chalk
jude: Amazing!
jude: Syl does that with cured clay.
Fearless Leader: brush it on light, and then press in concentrated chalk dust
Fearless Leader: the artist pastels are best
sylsnovelties: I grate it up really fine and it comes out like a powder.
jude: I use eye shadow.
jude: I have browns and blues/greens.
jude: Taupe, etc. Great for shading.
Fearless Leader: this is the next gen for skulls for Day of the Dead
jude: Cheaper than pearlex, too.
jude: LOL!
sylsnovelties: That's cute!
techi_mom56: wow...
sylsnovelties: In a spooky weird sort of way
Fearless Leader: One of the things I had to do with the list
Fearless Leader: is to scare off
Fearless Leader: those who could be scared off
Fearless Leader: to be as outrageous as possible
jude: You? Scare people off? GASP!
Fearless Leader: and defend those who are outrageous too
Fearless Leader: yup
Fearless Leader: if they are narrow minded
Fearless Leader: hooked on cute
Fearless Leader: bye bye
Fearless Leader: there's lists for them
Fearless Leader: there are NO lists for those who love the spooky stuff
Fearless Leader: who love sci fi
Fearless Leader: and want adult themes
jude: We all don't like the same things, but that's what makes a world.
Fearless Leader: we're the only one
Fearless Leader: that I know of anyway
Fearless Leader: THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE!!!!
Fearless Leader: ooops, channeled Highlander
Fearless Leader: So that's the sort of thing we're doing tomorrow night

sylsnovelties: Count me in
jude: I'll be here.
techi_mom56: same time?
Fearless Leader: There was a bit of arm wrestling where some miniaturists felt that my wanting to do what I do wasn't right. So I let them know that this list might not be right for them, for I'm not changing.
sylsnovelties: I got so engrossed watching, I almost forgot to get this screen shot.
Fearless Leader: Time...gosh
Fearless Leader: two shows
Fearless Leader: one early and one late

msatclayart left the room
greatauntjudy left the room
chelyha left the room
buci131: maybe, I'm aiming for the early show, Cheryl
jakmiami left the room
buci131: ok, don't shoot me--what was the recipe for cheese again?
ladytex49 ponders the meaning of life
chenoa_2b: now what is this?
jude: Ah...eyeball?
buci131: turkey glaze for Eva
ladytex49 faints on buci131
jude: yikes! I came in the middle of a horror movie!
sylsnovelties: heeheehee
buci131: heehee
buci131: oh, that's good Jude
chenoa_2b: are we just doing t he glaze? Or the whole turkey? lool
techi_mom56: laugh!
buci131: I just want the glaze--I've got the turkey
jude: Remember the "Attach of the Eye Creatures"?
chenoa_2b: I will have you know that was a laugh with a hiccup in the middle! lol
Fearless Leader: ok
jude: Attach? Oh, my...Attack I think.
buci131: and Jude is attaching eye creatures to herself
ladytex49 listens to ladytex49
jude:
Fearless Leader: are we ready?
snooks2312: yup
buci131: Don't shoot me but
ladytex49: yes m'am...
Fearless Leader: this dirty cane here
buci131: what was the recipe for cheese again
chenoa_2b: yep, but I think there might be a full moon out.
Fearless Leader: is my mix for melted cheddar cheese for cheese burgers
Fearless Leader: and for the toasty top on bread
buci131: I think that's going to be perfect
Fearless Leader: The mix
jude: Braided loaf...very nice.
chenoa_2b: ya gonna use burnt umber or something?
Fearless Leader: is mostly translucent
chenoa_2b: got that
Fearless Leader: with some orange mixed from scratch
Fearless Leader: not packaged orange
ladytex49 knows that buci131 knows that the truth is out there
buci131: cad yell and cad red?
Fearless Leader: yellow and red, to maintain the translucent quality
Fearless Leader: cad if you can, zinc if you can
buci131: or zinc yell
buci131: ok
Fearless Leader: doesn't even really matter for cad yellow is more warm
buci131: yep
Fearless Leader: and we're warming this up with the red
buci131: got it
Fearless Leader: so it's sort of moot really when mixing cad yellow with a hot color
Fearless Leader: so
Fearless Leader: then there's a bit of burnt umber
Fearless Leader: just a eye booger worth
Fearless Leader: in comparison
ladytex49: more technical terms here...
chenoa_2b: I knew it!
Fearless Leader: let me cut a thin slice of this and I'm going to mix it with TLS
Fearless Leader: and I have a wonky face mold here
Fearless Leader: that will work as a turkey back
Fearless Leader: and we're going to brush the turkey back
buci131: heehee--you were right Jude
Fearless Leader: with this toasty color
Fearless Leader: so if there's no questions I'll get to it, who's shooting shots and saving logs?
jude: eyes, huh? hehehehe
buci131: I got shots
ladytex49: fku shots??
Fearless Leader: log duty
buci131: oh, you mean on the computer? I thought you meant tequila
Fearless Leader: who's got log duty
chenoa_2b: I have been doing it.
sylsnovelties: I'll do the logs if nobody is doing them
Fearless Leader: thank you honey
sylsnovelties: Oh, okie, Carolyn is doing them.
Fearless Leader: I'll go mix this melted cheddar cheese with some TLS
chenoa_2b: do we get to see that part?
Fearless Leader: for those who don't know what that is, your claymates will tell you while I mix,
Fearless Leader: yes, mixing I will go....
Fearless Leader: see the smear
chenoa_2b: Taking a thin slice of the mix
chenoa_2b: yes
Fearless Leader: that's what gives the bread cane
Fearless Leader: a toasty top
snooks2312: way too cool
buci131: drop of TLS
chenoa_2b: putting a dab of TLS on the slice
buci131: mixing
chenoa_2b: what is she mixing this on?
ladytex49: a tile I think..
buci131: looks like buther paper
buci131: butcher paper
buci131: that's what it looks like to me or something similar
techi_mom56: awesome...i havent told my mom what i am up to...but shes got to be wondering...she does doll houses..some loaves of bread would be cool for xmas
Fearless Leader: now don't you think we should add more brown to this?
buci131: absolutely
Fearless Leader: it's a bit too yellow
Fearless Leader: ok
ladytex49: oops yeah...buthcer paper...or wax paper...
chenoa_2b: ok
buci131: roach turd size
chenoa_2b: adding a couple of rat turds to the mix! lol
ladytex49: you techy you...
buci131: more TLS
buci131: mix mix mix
buci131: that looks better already
chenoa_2b: But she has only mixed about half of the slice so far.
buci131: yep
buci131: perhaps just checking the recipe for turkey glaze color before doing it all
Fearless Leader: ok that seems brown enough
Fearless Leader: let's brush it over this wonky face mold
Fearless Leader: and see how it looks
chenoa_2b: what are you mixing on? And why only half of the slice?
Fearless Leader: once cured it'll look way different
Fearless Leader: for the translucent liquid sculpey will go clear
Fearless Leader: so make sure your mix has no lumps
Fearless Leader: I'm using ceramic tiles
chenoa_2b: ok
Fearless Leader: I got a bunch of broken tiles for free
Fearless Leader: I only used half a slice
Fearless Leader: because I didn't need more
chenoa_2b: ok
Fearless Leader: I'm not doing a whole bird or a series of birds, so a little bit is ok
Fearless Leader: any other questions?
buci131: nope
chenoa_2b: nope
Fearless Leader: ok, now I'm going to brush this over this mold back and then I'm going to put it in the oven right away
Fearless Leader: hopefully we will all be here in a half an hour
Fearless Leader: to see the outcome
Fearless Leader: ok?
chenoa_2b: yep
sylsnovelties: ok
buci131: maybe, no promises on the half hour thing
buci131: she's using a paint brush to apply it to the mold
chenoa_2b: she is using a brush to put the glaze on?
Fearless Leader: eyeshadow brush
ladytex49: I wish I could but I am gonna hafta go...am sooo tired...Thanks again for a great demo...good night everyone...
Fearless Leader: and there it is glazed
ladytex49 waves at Fearless Leader
chenoa_2b: Nite lady

Fearless Leader: I wash out the brush after rubbing as much clay off of it as possible
techi_mom56: i will if it turns out...
chenoa_2b: ok
Fearless Leader: I'll go put this in the oven and will post the result on a webpage
buci131: goody
buci131: banana split and pizza
buci131: what a meal!
chenoa_2b: ok, you just have a log of toasty color or chedder cheese hanging around, just waiting for TLS?
sylsnovelties: There she goes, tempting us with food again!
buci131: uses it for cheeseburgers and bread
buci131: really makes the bread look great
chenoa_2b: My bread ended up looking stupid!
Fearless Leader: ok
sylsnovelties: Her bread is excellent!
Fearless Leader: it's in the oven
Fearless Leader: it's the toasty top
Fearless Leader: that's what does it
sylsnovelties: I have a question.
Fearless Leader: yes
Fearless Leader: Syl
sylsnovelties: Can you use this TLS method on the bread too, or is the sliced one better?
Fearless Leader: sliced is better
chenoa_2b: you have a log of this chedder cheese mix just sitting around waiting for TLS.
chenoa_2b: Lost me! lol
sylsnovelties: ok, thanks
Fearless Leader: for there is more control with smearing the toasty top down the sides
buci131: so on a braid like this you
buci131: put the cheese mix on top of the log
buci131: then braid it, right?
Fearless Leader: I have this "melted" cheddar cheese log around for a number of reasons
Fearless Leader: for cooked mini food
Fearless Leader: melted cheddar has a translucency
Fearless Leader: that non melted cheddar cheese does not
buci131: reduce and braid, I guess
chenoa_2b: ok, but that is the main idea. YOu mix up a big bunch of it, and slice what you need
Fearless Leader: it's toasty top for bread
Fearless Leader: I have many canes that are like this
Fearless Leader: they are used for a number of things
Fearless Leader: like if I need to make salad
Fearless Leader: I have a bunch of green mixed with various amounts of translucent
Fearless Leader: so I can take different darknesses of green
Fearless Leader: stack sheets
Fearless Leader: cut off some stripes
Fearless Leader: smear them on a tile
Fearless Leader: razor them up and I have salad greens
Fearless Leader: sushi fixings
chenoa_2b: Now that makes sense!
Fearless Leader: citrus peelings
Fearless Leader: I have them done ahead of time
chenoa_2b: I am gobsmacked! lol
Fearless Leader: I have raw meat and cooked meat already mixed
Fearless Leader: if I need a cooked hamburger
Fearless Leader: I take a slice of cooked roast beef
Fearless Leader: and mince it up
Fearless Leader: works perfectly
Fearless Leader: should
Fearless Leader: take a slice of that cooked roast beef
Fearless Leader: and mix it with TLS
Fearless Leader: your gravy will match your dinner
Fearless Leader: meat
Fearless Leader: see?
Fearless Leader: wanna see?
Fearless Leader: LOL
sylsnovelties: yes, please
chenoa_2b: But I have problems with getting the colors right. I only get the basics, blue, red, yellow, white and black
chenoa_2b: Yes!
Fearless Leader: with the basics
snooks2312: i do i do
Fearless Leader: you can make anything
chenoa_2b: But the right color!
Fearless Leader: After I show you the hamburger
Fearless Leader: then I want to show you my color cards
Fearless Leader: ok?
chenoa_2b: I read instructions, and it talks about beige and such.
Fearless Leader: we got to talk about mixing color
chenoa_2b: Ok
Fearless Leader: screw beige
Fearless Leader: all beige is
Fearless Leader: white
Fearless Leader: and brown
Fearless Leader: there
Fearless Leader: you got beige
Fearless Leader: barbie skin color
chenoa_2b: lol
Fearless Leader: we can mix our own colors
snooks2312: flat and boring
Fearless Leader: I have a section on mixing brown from the three primary colors
Fearless Leader: on the site
Fearless Leader: also...
sylsnovelties: I did that accidentally. heeheehee
Fearless Leader: hold up let me get something
sylsnovelties: I was trying for a different color, I don't remember which one, and came up with a pretty brown.
Fearless Leader: this
Fearless Leader: is the Cook's Mix
Fearless Leader: a bead box with cured mini food
chenoa_2b: Oh! NJ's deli! lol
buci131: oh
Fearless Leader: that's the meat section
Fearless Leader: hey I got Spam for the Hawaiians who love to eat that stuff
buci131: what do you use the cured minis for? do you put mini food together that way?
chenoa_2b: Hey that is good in sandwiches! lol
sylsnovelties: I love spam!
chenoa_2b: yah! Syl!
buci131: you guys are scaring me here
sylsnovelties: I like spam and eggs!
snooks2312: I love it fried up
sylsnovelties: heeheehee
buci131: green spam and eggs
chenoa_2b: with cheese! lol
sylsnovelties: Now, I'm hungry for spam
buci131: looks like gyro meat
Fearless Leader: raw hamburger looks different from cooked
Fearless Leader: so if you're doing a bbq prep mini meal scene
Fearless Leader: you need to mix raw ground beef and cooked
sylsnovelties: You have some raw hamburger?
sylsnovelties: Oh, neato
buci131: NJ what do you use the cooked mini food parts for? Just for scenes?
chenoa_2b: did you use your food processor to get the little c hunks? Is that raw meat chop?
sylsnovelties: I love that raw hamburger! heeheehee
Fearless Leader: The mini foods is my favorite thing to do when I'm just using up scraps
Fearless Leader: I want to do mini food beads
sylsnovelties: Don't get scared Eva, I don't eat it raw! heeheehee
chenoa_2b: How do you do tortillas? Flour ones?
Fearless Leader: do mini tea pots done as bell peppers and stuff like that
sylsnovelties: I've been working on those, Carolyn.
buci131: heehee--good way to get sick
Fearless Leader: The little chunks for mini food is cut up with the exacto knife
chenoa_2b: Any tips!
buci131: stuffed bell peppers
sylsnovelties: I'm still figuring it out. heeheehee
chenoa_2b: I am supposed to be doing a Mex cocina
Fearless Leader: the tortillas, the flour ones need dots of brown eyeshadow
Fearless Leader: on off white clay
Fearless Leader: to get the cooked areas
Fearless Leader: so it's a little tricky
chenoa_2b: All of my eye shadow is shimmery
Fearless Leader: but if you're doing a stack
Fearless Leader: you only have to do the top one, scrape pastel chalk
Fearless Leader: and mix you a brown that way
chenoa_2b: got that!
chenoa_2b: I used it on pears and apples
Fearless Leader: ok, now to take roast beef
Fearless Leader: and chop it up for hamburger
buci131: couldn't you do a little cane of off white with some brown jelly roll canes in it
sylsnovelties: cook a piece of brown just in a glob and grate it. Works good.
buci131: for the tortillas?
chenoa_2b: Brown? what color of brown!?! lol
sylsnovelties: That is what I'm experimenting with Eva.
buci131: like that brown cane there on screen
snooks2312: red onions
chenoa_2b: are those onions?
buci131: diff sizes of logs, just a few, wrapped up in off white color
buci131: may have to play with tortillas too
buci131: ah well--so much to do
buci131: yep, those look like red onions
buci131: well, except my pic on the webcam has really bad coloring
chenoa_2b: tamalies and enchiladas, salsa...
buci131: so I'm never quite sure what color these things are
sylsnovelties: If I get my tortillas to look decent, I'll send a pic. Lord knows it took me long enough to get the real ones to look decent! heeheehee
buci131: salsa--lots of TLS with chunks of red, green and trans with white
Fearless Leader: cooked meat
Fearless Leader: isn't just one color
Fearless Leader: there's a pattern the muscle makes
Fearless Leader: you can get that look with stacking sheets
Fearless Leader: and doing a ying yang fold like this
Fearless Leader: for the roast beef slice
Fearless Leader: if you wanted to do a whole roast beef with some slices coming off of it
Fearless Leader: take a cane like this and do two things
Fearless Leader: first
Fearless Leader: take some dental floss
chenoa_2b: Now why do I see roast beast done like tiger skin?
Fearless Leader: and tie it around the roast beef
Fearless Leader: like you have string on your roast beef from the store
Fearless Leader: and then brush the top of your roast beef with some brown color paint, powder or TLS smear
chenoa_2b: what is the smear?
Fearless Leader: then slice off a couple of slices off of that roast and put it on a platter
Fearless Leader: TLS and a bit of burnt umber is what I'd go for
Fearless Leader: when I refer to a smear
sylsnovelties: For that rare look?
chenoa_2b: How do yo make burnt umber?
Fearless Leader: it's always TLS with some color
Fearless Leader: use the three primary colors
Fearless Leader: to get brown
chenoa_2b: ok
Fearless Leader: it's on the Color Card section
Fearless Leader: this is the color card for Brown
Fearless Leader: there's three primary colors to the left
Fearless Leader: each different piece there
Fearless Leader: is mixed with something along with the primary colors
Fearless Leader: mixed with translucent to get Coke and Ice Tea
Fearless Leader: mixed with pearl, gold, gold and pearl, etc
chenoa_2b: I think my brain is pre kindergarten.
Fearless Leader: one part yellow, blue and red
Fearless Leader: gives you something very close to packaged burnt umber
Fearless Leader: close enough for government work
buci131: really? That's cool
chenoa_2b: Does this mean I can quite grinding my teeth? lol
Fearless Leader: now
Fearless Leader: burnt umber is a little different than our three part primary brown
Fearless Leader: but really
Fearless Leader: no one is going to bust you for that
Fearless Leader: relax
Fearless Leader: if you have the three primary colors
buci131: no teeth grinding allowed
Fearless Leader: and black and white
Fearless Leader: you got it pretty much covered
Fearless Leader: I'd invest in the pretty mica clays after that
Fearless Leader: pearl
chenoa_2b: I know I am obsessive and a perfectionist.
Fearless Leader: gold
Fearless Leader: silver
Fearless Leader: copper
Fearless Leader: and then take those basic colors you have
Fearless Leader: and just
Fearless Leader: go
chenoa_2b: Pearl, gold, silver and copper
Fearless Leader: nuts
chenoa_2b: Translucent.
Fearless Leader: fushia experiment
Fearless Leader: what a bother that was
Fearless Leader: man
chenoa_2b: are those glued onto card stock?
Fearless Leader: those are my bread crumbs to find my way out of the forest of color mixing
Fearless Leader: make a record of what you're mixing and adding
Fearless Leader: it's like a computer flow chart
Fearless Leader: make cards of your blends too
Fearless Leader: like this one
Fearless Leader: then you can repeat what you've discovered
Fearless Leader: twisted blends
Fearless Leader: make sea shells
Fearless Leader: and animal prints
sylsnovelties: If you have some kind of turquoise color and want a dark cobalt blue, what could you add to it?
chenoa_2b: I never did get a amonite
snooks2312: I'm gonna have to bail ladies, am no longer seeing straight
snooks2312: too tired
Fearless Leader: nighty night
sylsnovelties: Nitey Nite
chenoa_2b: ok nighty...
buci131: nighty night Jan
snooks2312: will see ya tomorrow night
snooks2312: probably later one
snooks2312: night
jude: Night.
snooks2312 left the room
chenoa_2b: abalone!
Fearless Leader: exactly
Fearless Leader: one of the abalone experiments
sylsnovelties: Anyone got an answer for my blue question?
chenoa_2b: how to make turquise into cobalt?
buci131: I don't know--did you try a little red and maybe black?
sylsnovelties: yes
Fearless Leader: hold up
sylsnovelties: I haven't tried anything yet
Fearless Leader: I didn't see your question
Fearless Leader: what's the noodle?
buci131: turqoise to cobalt blue
buci131: turquoise
buci131: is it possible?
Fearless Leader: turquoise has green in it
Fearless Leader: yellow is in green
chenoa_2b: That was what I was thinking
Fearless Leader: colbalt is cool cool cool
Fearless Leader: hmmm
Fearless Leader: I wish I could see the starting color
Fearless Leader: then I'd have a better idea
buci131: is the packaged turq Syl?
Fearless Leader: is it a blue turquoise or a more green one
Fearless Leader: they are not consistent with mixed packaged clay those DOGS
sylsnovelties: blue one
Fearless Leader: grrrr
chenoa_2b: like a sky blue?
sylsnovelties: no label on it.
Fearless Leader: ok
Fearless Leader: do this
sylsnovelties: Umm, no more turquoise than sky blue
Fearless Leader: Here are my blue color cards
Fearless Leader: that middle row there is more green
Fearless Leader: sea foam green
Fearless Leader: then there's different variations of blue
Fearless Leader: see those little circles there
Fearless Leader: take some turquoise
Fearless Leader: and roll out a sheet
Fearless Leader: cut out some circles
Fearless Leader: then what other colors do you have there to mix with it?
Fearless Leader: my concern is if we add red
Fearless Leader: it'll come out brown
Fearless Leader: for a greenish blue
Fearless Leader: is already yellow and blue
Fearless Leader: add red
Fearless Leader: we got brown
Fearless Leader: we can get brown from a number of angles
buci131: that's part of my problem--photog mentality
Fearless Leader: so if we are to cool a color down
Fearless Leader: black
buci131: you want to get rid of green you use a red filter
Fearless Leader: red I was thinking but monitor mix and clay mix are different
buci131: yep
Fearless Leader: my self
Fearless Leader: crimson
Fearless Leader: some black, some crimson
Fearless Leader: mix with the turquoise and then see
buci131: isn't crimson red with black in it?
Fearless Leader: that's Ox Blood, like bento boxes
buci131: or is it red with blue and black in it
buci131: oh
Fearless Leader: I guess it depends on the amount of black to red ratio
Fearless Leader: but I'd do little circles
Fearless Leader: with a small heart of red and black
Fearless Leader: and mix and see
Fearless Leader: or little leaves, any measure that is constant
Fearless Leader: we can only figure this out by sitting down and doing as many variations as we can think of
buci131: Oh, is the turkey done yet?--I'm hungry
chenoa_2b: duh! log save! lol
Fearless Leader: and keep track of the measures
Fearless Leader: let me check the turkey
Fearless Leader: LOL
buci131: heehee
chenoa_2b: I wonder if NJ is left or right handed?
Fearless Leader: I put a finger dabbing of floor polish on it
Fearless Leader: right handed
sylsnovelties: Sorry, I was looking to see if I could read what it said on the piece of label that is on the clay
buci131: oh, is this it
Fearless Leader: but ambidextrious in most things
buci131: oh, that's looks pretty good
chenoa_2b: I swear you think like a lefty. Smart as a tack and talented! lol
sylsnovelties: That looks like a roasted turkey!
buci131: goody--thanks bunches NJ
Fearless Leader: I love how the molds do that
Fearless Leader: look like it's sculpted instead of indented
Fearless Leader: dig
Fearless Leader: about the bird
Fearless Leader: a tooth brush
Fearless Leader: to the skin please
Fearless Leader: for the just plucked look
buci131: ooh, thank you
Fearless Leader: then brush
buci131: great idea
Fearless Leader: dark at the ankles
Fearless Leader: and wing tips
Fearless Leader: for they cook dark
Fearless Leader: not a lot of meat there
Fearless Leader: the tall breast ridge too, a little darker
chenoa_2b: syl, can you save the logs? my computer is scanning
sylsnovelties: sure
Fearless Leader: top of the thighs
buci131: but I can use the glaze to make that part darker, right?
buci131: those parts
Fearless Leader: ya ya
Fearless Leader: exactly
chenoa_2b: Thanks!
Fearless Leader: ok, now how would you glaze a pineapple upside down cake?
Fearless Leader: what colors?
Fearless Leader: with TLS?
jude: Hmm....I'm wondering how NJ's duck l'orange turns out!
buci131: similar, wouldn't they be?
buci131: cause you make it with brown sugar
buci131: or similar to the toasty bread top
chenoa_2b: and the yellow pinapple
Fearless Leader: for that caramel glaze
Fearless Leader: a bit of yellow
Fearless Leader: a bit of burnt umber
chenoa_2b: Curried rice
Fearless Leader: melted cheddar cheese and white
Fearless Leader: with TLS
Fearless Leader: it's not translucent Curry
Fearless Leader: but
Fearless Leader: for Sweet and Sour
Fearless Leader: red and burnt umber
Fearless Leader: yum
Fearless Leader: now
jude: Do you put pineapple in your sweet and sour?
Fearless Leader: I call out and have it delivered
Fearless Leader: and eat what ever they put in
Fearless Leader: San Francisco, Chinese food capital of America
jude: LOL
Fearless Leader: I can get Sushi delivered
Fearless Leader: if I had the money
jude: I wish we had one here.
chenoa_2b: German Chinese is better! lol
Fearless Leader: now

jude: Syl zeros right into donuts. LOL!
Fearless Leader: and what gravy's can you think of
chenoa_2b: Sos!
chenoa_2b: lol
Fearless Leader: light for chicken fried steak

jude: One of God's gifts.
sylsnovelties: That's the best sauce!
Fearless Leader: Chocolate sause is burnt umber and TLS
chenoa_2b: That and strawberries! lol
jude: What is that?
techi_mom56: oh thats so great...
chenoa_2b: so less TLS would make choco frosting?
jude: Oh, the cake.
Fearless Leader: that's just burnt umber
Fearless Leader: TLS
Fearless Leader: and it's frosting
Fearless Leader: more TLS
Fearless Leader: it's chocolate syrup
jude: Hmm...I could make some mini Hershey bars, huh?
chenoa_2b: Molasass?
sylsnovelties: I could eat some mini hershey bars.
jude: Yum!
chenoa_2b: I use that in Veal Scalapinie (sp)?
chenoa_2b: That would be a bit different color of gravy, beef gravy
jude: There is country gravy, too.
jude: Looks like an Oreo!
chenoa_2b: And what about the stuff th ey put on egg foo young?
jude: Delicious!
sylsnovelties: I haven't eaten that in ages
jude: cornstarch to thicken and chicken broth.
chenoa_2b: lol I used brown gravy mix and added soy sauce! lol
Fearless Leader: To get your gravy to match your dinner meat
jude: Used to go to a place that had shrimp foo yung. So, good.
Fearless Leader: use your dinner meat and TLS for your gravy
Fearless Leader: it's easier that way
jude: Right, makes all kinds of sense.
jude: She does these things so quickly.
Fearless Leader: now through the magic of web cam
jude: I just love the peas.
chenoa_2b: I am going to have to just jump in and start mucking around with th e dang stuff! lol
jude: Yes!
sylsnovelties: I know what you mean.
sylsnovelties: I'm always so afraid of wasting clay
jude: That is how I finally started doing things.
Fearless Leader: if you're afraid of wasting clay
Fearless Leader: do minis
chenoa_2b: lol leopard skin shoes with gravy in them!
jude: Right!
Fearless Leader: it's the safest bet in town
Fearless Leader: I got a lot of my color mixing learned
Fearless Leader: doing mini food
jude: then, it's just a little bit of clay, Syl.
Fearless Leader: for we are bound to what we see
sylsnovelties: heeheehee Right.
Fearless Leader: something's missing
Fearless Leader: can't have a dinner like that
jude: Missing?
Fearless Leader: peas are starch
Fearless Leader: ya
Fearless Leader: we need some

Fearless Leader: Time to review
Fearless Leader: Pot Therapy

chenoa_2b: I need to move, hurting from sitting so long!
Fearless Leader: You seen these already, right?

chenoa_2b: Not the kitchen pots! lol
jude: I love the kitchen pots!
sylsnovelties: I love the silver pots!
jude: I just saw the pic you sent through the list.
jude: Those are SO neat!
chenoa_2b: If you want, go on ahead and I will catch it another time or what ever. But I have got to move!
chenoa_2b: brb
jude: did you use silver clay?
Fearless Leader: yes
Fearless Leader: spatula
jude: I have some gold and I was wondering...copper bottoms...hehehehe
Fearless Leader: to carve the turkey
jude: Now, if I do Southwest, I would do cast iron.
jude: But, the form of the pots is what I'm interested in.
jude: Love the coffee pot.
jude: that is so neat.
jude: Oh, my! the top comes off...too cute!
Fearless Leader: top comes off when YOU want it to
jude: Even better.
Fearless Leader: hate mini stuff where the tops don't fit
Fearless Leader: watch
Fearless Leader: I can turn it over and the top stays put
jude: Fantastic.
Fearless Leader: stew pot with top
jude: I was looking in a mini catalog, at their mini food. And, there is no comparison. The things in that catalog were schmuck compared to whate I have seen here.
jude: whate?
Fearless Leader: wok with wok cook gear
jude: I'm making up words again.
sylsnovelties: You better believe it!
jude: It looks so much like metal.
Fearless Leader: I'm working on an old fashioned rice pot, it needs handles and a pot knob still
Fearless Leader: it started with looking for a better platter for the banana splits
chenoa_2b: log save
sylsnovelties: You saving logs again Carolyn?
chenoa_2b: yeah, but it is still scanning
sylsnovelties: I got whatever you didn't then.
chenoa_2b: ok
jude: Tin cup!
jude: Just right for scraping along the bars demanding food!
Fearless Leader: lol
chenoa_2b: ok, now for a glass of what ever. Trans for the base, and log of trans and colored for the liquid
chenoa_2b: coved with a thin sheet of trans? And then a bit of trans around the top?
chenoa_2b: Those are so tiny!
jude: I use my computer tweezers now. They work well.
chenoa_2b: saki
jude: In fact, a lot of the tools in the computer tool kit can be used for things.
sylsnovelties: computer tool kit, huh?
jude: Yup!
jude: Someone gave me one as a gift one year.
jude: Used it twice.
Fearless Leader: there
chenoa_2b: NJ is having to much fun playing with the little dishes! lol
Fearless Leader: my dollies need dishes for the mini food
techi_mom56: they are awesome NJ
Fearless Leader: now
Fearless Leader: if I took some pizza toppings from the cooks mix
Fearless Leader: and put it in the wok
Fearless Leader: with some noodles
Fearless Leader: I already have made
Fearless Leader: I can have instant Chow Mein
jude: Stir fry!
Fearless Leader: yup
Fearless Leader: make the woks
Fearless Leader: use your scrap clay for chopped food bits
Fearless Leader: a touch of TLS
Fearless Leader: and you're ready to serve up a mini meal
Fearless Leader: easy breezy
Fearless Leader: wanna see?
chenoa_2b: yeah
Fearless Leader: ok
jude: yes.
Fearless Leader: have you ever seen Yang Can Cook?
Fearless Leader: on TV
jude: Yeah...he drives me nuts.
jude: hehehehe
Fearless Leader: why?
Fearless Leader: LOL
chenoa_2b: Ugh! What is that? It looks like a brown brain!
Fearless Leader: Soba noodles, I'm going to chop it up a bit for stir fry
jude: Oh, my, the infamous brown brain trick!
Fearless Leader: hey fried brains
chenoa_2b: lol
Fearless Leader: Night of the Living Dead
Fearless Leader: in Mini
Fearless Leader: oh that's a thought
chenoa_2b: spam and brains! Eweeeeeeeeeeeee!
jude: Groan...
Fearless Leader: like the conservative clayers and mini mavens don't have reason to fear me already
Fearless Leader: let's get cooking
Fearless Leader: that's the secret of any mini mound of food
chenoa_2b: sculpting brains?
Fearless Leader: make a lump
Fearless Leader: then cover with peas
Fearless Leader: or noodles
Fearless Leader: don't do the whole thing
Fearless Leader: where folks can't see
Fearless Leader: we're going to put that filler clay on a plate anyway
Fearless Leader: so just do the upper layer of any mini mound of things that are labor intensive
Fearless Leader: like peas and nooldes, and rice
Fearless Leader: ok?
chenoa_2b: ok
Fearless Leader: now I'm going to chop up these noodles
chenoa_2b: brb
Fearless Leader: the pizza toppings need dicing so I'll do that off camera
chenoa_2b: ok
Fearless Leader: for it's jumps and pops when I dice it
Fearless Leader: there
Fearless Leader: and I'm just going to mix these up
jude: Don't burn your fingers!
jude: Looks so colorful!
chenoa_2b: so I need to start looking in cookbooks and cooking mags, and start building up my food warehouse?
jude:
Fearless Leader: I have my cook books
jude: Look also on food labels.
Fearless Leader: at my clay table
Fearless Leader: also there's this book I want to show you
jude: Food boxes.
jude: TV dinner packaging. They have great pictures. Want their food looking really good.
chenoa_2b: Ingrediants!
sylsnovelties: Good idea to look in cooking magazines
jude: Right.
chenoa_2b: That book is to awesome!
jude: Oh, neat!
jude: Great closeups!
chenoa_2b: And how much does this cost?
