The other day I made play dough, but I didn't put enough food coloring in it, so it ended up sort of flesh-colored and sickly-looking.
It's sitting on the counter in plastic bags now, and every time I look over at it I think it's some kind of pale, disgusting raw meat. Ew!
Children's voices in the orchard
Between the blossom- and the fruit-time:
Golden head, crimson head,
Between the green tip and the root.
Black wing, brown wing, hover over;
Twenty years and the spring is over;
To-day grieves, to-morrow grieves,
Cover me over, light-in-leaves;
Golden head, black wing,
Cling, swing,
Spring, sing,
Swing up into the apple-tree.
--T.S. Eliot

It's never too late to add food coloring :) And I hope your dad feels better soon.
ReplyDeleteew you're grossing me out!
ReplyDelete"Flesh." That's almost as bad as "tender." There are some pretty gross words associated with meat. Like "Chicken breast." Call me immature, but I can never say that without cringing.
ReplyDeleteOkay. Yucky. Even food coloring isn't going to help much here. Now, jess - I don't mind the word, "tender" but I have to admit that "flesh" creeps me out.
ReplyDeleteHere's what I say: fry 'em up with some garlic salt. Almost anything is fine if you fry it up with garlic salt.
Really.
