GREAT THINGS AHEAD

Here are some pictures of maquettes [models] of future projects.

The Ultimate Dunk

Scale 1 to ∞

When made, this gingernut will be so dense that the universe will implode and total collapse will follow – probable title – “The Ultimate Dunk”.

[The rather splendid stand won’t be included ……. that would be silly]

The Ultimate Diet

Gingernut – Scale ∞-1 to 1 ……….. Plate – life size

Title “The Ultimate Diet”.

Gingernut with Virtual Hole

Scale 1 to 1

A life sized gingernut with a virtual hole. Title “Gingernut with Virtual Hole”.

I now realise that if I’d made the hole a tad bigger it could have been titled “An Edible Hula-hoop for a Leprechaun” – a missed opportunity.

(To think that while you were making these, I was making salmon fish cakes. I feel so humbled. Lo.TG Ed)

    Peanut Biscuits, FOREVER!

    What’s the difference between a biscuit and a cookie on your side of the pond, DP? Your biscuits would fall into our ‘cookie’ category, but there’s tons of variations.

    Two ‘biscuits’ with a creme center make a ’sandwich cookie’. What do you call that as well?

    daddyp replied:

    Known as biscuits as well ……

    ORIGIN Middle English : from Old French bescuit, based on Latin bis ‘twice’ + coctus, past participle of coquere ‘to cook’ (so named because originally biscuits were cooked in a twofold process: first baked and then dried out in a slow oven so that they would keep).

    …… we don’t really use the word cookie …..
