Fearless Leader: cutters are great
Fearless Leader: I use them all the time
Fearless Leader: any tool is fair game
sew_short: lol
sylsnovelties: I go looking in the kitchen when I'm claying! Bill only
gets worried when I go looking in his tool box!
sew_short: I have to change the green - hard on my eyes
sew_short: Back to my favorite

NikiT: they sell those at taco bell.
sew_short: They do?
Fearless Leader: a sort of eclair
sylsnovelties: I'm so hungry right now! heeheehee
sew_short: for Chocolate???
Fearless Leader: that's whipped cream
Fearless Leader: if we wanted custard
sew_short: Whaaa I want a ding dong
NikiT: at least at the taco bell by my house
Fearless Leader: we'd add a bit of yellow
sew_short: I'd rather have the whipped cream instead of custard
sylsnovelties: I thought it was whipped cream
Fearless Leader: That was whipped cream
Fearless Leader: if we want custard
sylsnovelties: So yummy
Fearless Leader: we start out with a more yellow clay
Fearless Leader: and then add TLS
sew_short: Are you mixing the clay and TLS thoroghly or just on the
top?
sew_short: DUH - looks like thoroghly
Fearless Leader: whip it to the consistency you want
sew_short: Looks like whipped butter too
Fearless Leader: I am going to aim for custard cream
Fearless Leader: and pour it over half a ding dong
Fearless Leader: it looks like whipped butter because I need more TLS
sylsnovelties: Yumm
sew_short: What tool are you using to mix it with?
Fearless Leader: my exacto knife, I'm adding burnt umber
Fearless Leader: it's too light yellow for custard
sew_short: ok
Fearless Leader: we need a little brown I think
sylsnovelties: She must be going at it. All I see is a blur!
sew_short: right
Fearless Leader: that's better for the yellow was too light
Fearless Leader: now it's more creamy looking
sew_short: Looks yummy
sew_short: Grab that ding dong
sylsnovelties: Yumm
sew_short: Is that a bowl?
sew_short: Look how big that exacto looks in comparison!
Fearless Leader: it's so sticky
Fearless Leader: it won't let go, LOL
Fearless Leader: I just wanted to make a custard tart
sew_short: Let me lick it off
Fearless Leader: for the custard cream I need more TLS
sylsnovelties: heeheehee Kay, good one!
sylsnovelties: Can we fight over who gets the exacto knife?
sylsnovelties: who gets to lick the exacto knife, that is.
sew_short: Oh heck just let me lick the acrylic board
sew_short: Oh Look Syl Oh --- groan

dongs now, don't you think?
Fearless Leader: LOL

sew_short: Yeah the real kind
sylsnovelties: I'm sitting drooling. hope it doesn't short out my
keyboard!

electricity! Oh my, here comes chocolate!!!!
