I need to post that recipe I created.
I have been trying to convince my son that to be able to cook a coupla nice recipes is a chick magnet.
We have a friend that learned one song on the piano off his smart phone. That sappy song from the Titanic. He played it well and I commented how nice it was. I asked him to play some more tunes. Then he came clean...he wanted to impress chicks. Smart Dude. So my son did the same thing, with another sappy tune.
I used that instance to say that cooking a killer meal is the same. My son isn't that smart YET.
As to quilts, I think they are so darn cool. They are utilitarian as well as art and history. The skill set, equipment and time it takes to make is daunting. One common thread is that they all have a story to tell. A distant cousin 2 times removed on my grandmas' sisters side and dirt poor is into quilting up Minnesota way made one with a horse motif. There is just bits of eyes, ears, nose in spiral patterns for the quadrants. You have to really inspect to understand that it is really horses and not some weird abstraction. Totally cool.
