This tiny meal is for real.

Someone took the time to create this miniature happy meal and they sure did an amazing job!

Lots of people forget that cooking is a craft, nay an ART, as much as any other on Craftster. My husband and I decided to do this challenge together since we are total foodies and enjoy spending time together in the kitchen.
This project was inspired by an article in Martha Stewart Living that appeared some time ago. I give you, miniature fast-food.

I wonder if they sell franchises?





ULTIMATE Lego Rubberband Gun

11 09 2006

Make LEGO, Not WAR!

The motor driven barrels start winding up to speed at the flick of a switch on the handle. Pulling the trigger unleashes a stream of rubber bands, deluging the target. The fire rate is high enough that at least half a dozen bands are in the air at any one time – the gun appears to fire a single very long chain of them. It’s as much like using a hose pipe as firing a rubber band gun. It also sounds fantastic because each mechanism makes a distinct click as it discharges a rubber band.

Ronald McHummer Sign-O-Matic™

RonadMcHummer.com has a fun Mc D’s Sign-O-Matic, go check it out!

McDonald’s often emphasizes its “long-standing global commitment to environmental protection and leadership.”


So why did they give away 42 million toy Hummers in Happy Meals? The fast-food chain that helped make our kids the fattest on Earth cut a deal with General Motors to sell future car buyers on the fun of driving a supersized, smog-spewing, gas-guzzling SUV originally built for the military. Use the Ronald McHummer Sign-O-Matic™ to say what you think of this misguided marketing marriage.

Banksy hid 500 doctored versions of Paris Hilton’s new CD in music stores across the UK. The CD’s contain Banksy’s remixes and have titles like “Why am I Famous?,” “What Have I Done?” and “What Am I For”

Steve Irwin, Australia’s Crocodile Hunter was killed today by a stingray while diving. Steve thrilled us with his crazy, over the top stunts involving some of natures most dangerous creatures.

Irwin was at Batt Reef, off the remote coast of northeastern Queensland state, shooting a segment for a series called “Ocean’s Deadliest” when he swam too close to one of the animals, which have a poisonous bard on their tails, his friend and colleague John Stainton said.

He came on top of the stingray and the stingray’s barb went up and into his chest and put a hole into his heart,” said Stainton, who was on board Irwin’s boat at th time.

Steve, we will miss you. Thanks for all the thrills!
