Fearless Leader: Now I see Jyl
Fearless Leader: whew
techi_mom56: i thought maybe you were confused...
Fearless Leader: I was totally confused.

chelyha55: is it in the photos on the clay list?
jyladams: yes I made an album (JylAdams )http://photos.groups.yahoo.com/group/MSATClayArt/lst
chelyha55 left the room
Fearless Leader: Mouse URL
Fearless Leader: yow now that's a url
Fearless Leader: Great Mouse!!
chelyha55 joined the room
Fearless Leader: you did this tonight?
Fearless Leader: Mouse URL
chelyha55: your mousie is very cute
Fearless Leader: isn't it?
Fearless Leader: it's just so expressive
chelyha55: I like how you have him holding the penny
Fearless Leader: me too
techi_mom56: oh that is so cute...he even looks good in that color...l
Fearless Leader: Cheryl these are the layered Tongues of Fire chop
Fearless Leader: I put the big trim at the ends and the more compact cane designs in the center of the loaf
Fearless Leader: and then cut bead logs
Fearless Leader: I really like how they came out, I have three trays of this stuff
Fearless Leader: LOL
jyladams: I did the mousie when NJ was dpoing the dog head. The Penny is to show the scale, I've gotta be able to reduce it by 3 sizes though!
Fearless Leader: always start out in practice in a larger scale
Fearless Leader: each time you do it you can make it smaller
Fearless Leader: but it is easier to start out big while you're getting your technique down
Fearless Leader: so anyone have any requests?
chelyha55: Do some food
Fearless Leader: ok... what's your pleasure?
jyladams: food yeah
chelyha55: anyone have a preference?
jyladams: turkey
chelyha55: ooh, hot turkey sandwich w/mashed potatoes and gravy
jyladams: pomegranic
jyladams: sandwich sounds food
jyladams: good sounds good
Fearless Leader: We have here two bread canes
Fearless Leader: they are blends that go from white or yellow-white to a toasty brown
Fearless Leader: we can form the loaf for our bread and slice off a some bread slices for the sandwiched
Fearless Leader: sandwiches
Fearless Leader: ok?
Fearless Leader: I'll work big so you can see what's going on
jyladams: ok
Fearless Leader: you can make it smaller
jyladams: please do big
jyladams: tomato slices?
Fearless Leader: This is my tomato slice
Fearless Leader: they are white snakes
Fearless Leader: surrounded by red diluted with translucent
Fearless Leader: like a bullseye
Fearless Leader: and then it's reduced so it's LOOOOONNNNGGGG
Fearless Leader: and then it's cut into a bunch of sections
Fearless Leader: to get the dots
Fearless Leader: a center sheet of red separates two half circles and then they are surrounded by more red
Fearless Leader: to get the dividing line and the surround sheet
Fearless Leader: ok?
jyladams: amazing!
Fearless Leader: There's the cane
Fearless Leader: ok?
Fearless Leader: Now what sandwich is without lettuce?
jyladams: ok - right!
Fearless Leader: This is green with yellow green sheets
Fearless Leader: just like we stacked sheets yesterday
Fearless Leader: and we pinch it to be a wedge
Fearless Leader: and we slice off wedges to get this Romane Lettuce
Fearless Leader: we can peel off a leaf of this for the sandwich
Fearless Leader: now here's a lettuce trick
Fearless Leader: take stacked sheets like this and mash them on the tile
Fearless Leader: then scrape them off the tile with round strokes
Fearless Leader: and you'll get ruffled lettuce
Fearless Leader: that's the plan anyway
Fearless Leader: Now if you like purple onion
Fearless Leader: let me get you the link on this
Fearless Leader: Biz-Archive/food/Diner-MeatNbread
Fearless Leader: Here's where you'll find bread
Fearless Leader: the tomato slice
Fearless Leader: melted cheddar cheese on hamburgers
Fearless Leader: the purple onion
Fearless Leader: Biz-Archive/food/Cheeseburger Group
Fearless Leader: Check this out
Fearless Leader: ok, roasted turkey breast is just two different light browns layered
Fearless Leader: pinch the ends of the stack like the striped flower petal we did last night
jyladams: I almost missed the turkey slices looking at the burgers
Fearless Leader: and slice off and add to the bread
Fearless Leader: I'll add some purple onion slices just for fun
jyladams: Love onions on my turkey sandwiches!!
Fearless Leader: Biz-Archive/food/burgerNfries/CheeseBurger-006
Fearless Leader: here's how to make purple onions
Fearless Leader: just a snake with sheets
Fearless Leader: purple and white, reduce, slice and stack and reduce some more
chelyha55: Jyl, NJ makes the coolest mini food
Fearless Leader: now let's close this sandwich and slice it in half
chelyha55: She made me a hamburger with all the fixin's
Fearless Leader: Ya, that's right you got one of the burgers didn't you Cheryl
Fearless Leader: there's the sandwich
Fearless Leader: but I want to show spring onions
jyladams: Yum! She is so good!
Fearless Leader: see that cane? It's a blend of translucent and green, with layers of translucent in between each sheet
Fearless Leader: do one slice off of this cane
jyladams: I can see how it is done! Maybe I am not hopeless afterall!
Fearless Leader: now you slice three slivers and twirl them at the white end
Fearless Leader: like this
Fearless Leader: spring onions
jyladams: magic!
Fearless Leader: mushroom caps?
jyladams: yes!

Fearless Leader: Jyl, you make the mushroom cap with sheets
Fearless Leader: and then reduce to the size you need
techi_mom56: thanks NJ...i didnt think i would get into the sculpting thing...but the bear is fun...
techi_mom56 left the room
jyladams: got it!
Fearless Leader: Biz-Archive/food/Pickled Vegs Group
Fearless Leader: Check this out
Fearless Leader: if you take cured mushroom caps and then roll them in translucent clay you can make a jar of mushroom caps for your kitchen cupboards
Fearless Leader: I'll save log here
jyladams: You blow me away!!
Fearless Leader: it's all a trick is all
jyladams: I keep slapping myself in the forehead going DUH!!
Fearless Leader: it's just snakes and sheets
Fearless Leader: like I've been telling you
Fearless Leader: you got to break down things you see into snakes and sheets
Fearless Leader: and then you can make a cane of it
Fearless Leader: let me show you something here with bread
jyladams: I need to spend the next two weeks going through your web site, a page at a time
Fearless Leader: when you have bread in the center
jyladams: french bread!
Fearless Leader: and a toasty top on the outside
Fearless Leader: you can slice the bread open but don't leave it here
Fearless Leader: smear the toasty top inside the cuts
Fearless Leader: pinch off the ends and you're done
jyladams: great job!
Fearless Leader: ok if you took a rectangle of this bread cane
Fearless Leader: and sliced off a length, slice off three lengths and braid it
Fearless Leader: like that, but the sides need to be smeared more to bring that toasty top down a bit
Fearless Leader: the toasty top is a melted cheedar cheese mix that I use to make the roasty brown on turkey backs
Fearless Leader: I use it for a ton of stuff
Fearless Leader: grate it on Mexican food
Fearless Leader: cheese burgers
Fearless Leader: toasty top on bread
Fearless Leader: crusty brown on cooked bird
Fearless Leader: when mixed with TLS and painted on an already cured bird
Fearless Leader: ok, now you tell me, Jyl, the light bulb went off in your head
Fearless Leader: you know now how to make mini food don't you?
jyladams: By George, I think I've got it!!
Fearless Leader: LOL
jyladams: I can make food AND a wee mousie - better work on my colors a bit though!
chelyha55: that just comes with time and practice
Fearless Leader: checking out the tutorials on my site will help
Fearless Leader: there's color cards, help with mixing colors
jyladams: My problem is going to be getting it small enough I can tell.
chelyha55: I always joke that my first clay beads looked like pink dog turds
Fearless Leader: start out big, play scale like for Barbie, then when you're done practicing gift the Barbie food to a Barbie friend
jyladams: Your site is wonderful!! I am all for you doing the 3 ring binder projects.
Fearless Leader: pink dog turds, that's a riot
Fearless Leader: I love everyone's first efforts, for it takes heart to start
chelyha55: oh they were hideous!
chelyha55: but I kept at it
jyladams: I have NO Barbie friends thank you!. No I start in 1" scale and then down to quarter.
chelyha55: you can send them to me I have a 5 year old niece who has 26 barbie dolls
sylsnovelties joined the room

chelyha55: Syl's here!
sylsnovelties: Yumm!
chelyha55: Hi Syl
Fearless Leader: YEAH
Fearless Leader: we did mini food
sylsnovelties: Howdy everyone!
jyladams: The dots (seeds) in the tomatos won't shop up at all when they are translated to this size "O ". And I do mean that litterally. the size of a capital letter O
sylsnovelties: Bill was talking to his Dad and his Dad didn't want to get off the phone.
jyladams: We waited for you Syl. Everybody kept saying you were going to be here! and here you are. Welcome

sylsnovelties: Oh boy, I'll take whatever I can get!

greatauntjudy left the room
Fearless Leader: there's a better view of the bacon cane
jyladams: I have to wimp out early tonight, When will the next demo be?
Fearless Leader: it's dark and light brown that's been layered
Fearless Leader: with translucent
Fearless Leader: I don't know Jyl
Fearless Leader: we'll post it to the list when it's coming up
jyladams: well I have months of work to do from your web site so I can't complain I don't guess
sylsnovelties: Jude sends her regrets. She keeps getting the chat all screwed up and finally gave up.
Fearless Leader: Biz-Archive/food/Bacon Group
Fearless Leader: Poor Jude
jyladams: Night all, ya'll have fun.
sylsnovelties: Nite Jyl
Fearless Leader: I changed some settings and let's see if we can't see this a little better
Fearless Leader: the bacon slices are rippled along the edge and look real different raw than cured
Fearless Leader: that's why I gave the url for the bacon tute, seeing it cured makes all the difference in the world
sylsnovelties: Right.
sylsnovelties: It does look different.
jyladams left the room
Fearless Leader: There's a BLT
sylsnovelties: Looks good. I would love one!
Fearless Leader: we started sculpting horses heads
Fearless Leader: and Cheryl found three pictures and I found two
Fearless Leader: and I put them up on the site to help us with sculpting
sylsnovelties: Horses heads, huh?
Fearless Leader: Horse Anatomy URL
Fearless Leader: check this out, it'll help us a lot
Fearless Leader: so any requests?
chelyha55: I bet my niece would love this mini food for her Barbie dolls
Fearless Leader: oh she'd love it
Fearless Leader: I'll bet ya
Fearless Leader: there's no good Barbie food out there
sylsnovelties: That's an idea!
Fearless Leader: play scale is fun and some of this mini food makes fun beads for the young set
sylsnovelties: What else did you do tonight?
Fearless Leader: just like Teri's Citrus slices jungle jangle bracelets
chelyha55: maybe that will give me the incentive to learn how to do some of this mini food
Fearless Leader: we were doing animal heads, bear, mouse, cat, dog, and then got lost in horses and getting those pictures up
chelyha55: I want to make one of those lime canes
sylsnovelties: I had fun doing the food.
chelyha55: the lime slices looked great mixed with my leaves and petals
Fearless Leader: Have you seen my three layer citrus peel?
chelyha55: believe it or not
sylsnovelties: I used up all my citrus canes. will have to invest in more translucent now.
chelyha55: no
Fearless Leader: let me get the link
chelyha55: You guys I have a sick cat here...
sylsnovelties: Oh no!
chelyha55: sick or injured,not sure which
Fearless Leader: Biz-Archive/food/Citrus/2002-orange-grp.htm
sylsnovelties: Oh, that's awful.
Fearless Leader: here's the three colored peel for the orange
Fearless Leader: what is the cat doing?
Fearless Leader: symptoms?
chelyha55: she has this swelling and bumps on her chin that bleed
chelyha55: I don't know if the other cat bit her or what
Fearless Leader: she got into a fight, sometimes the scratches get infected
Fearless Leader: best get it cleaned out
chelyha55: it could only have been her housemate cause they dont' go outside
chelyha55: it's not smelly
chelyha55: no pus
chelyha55: sorry to be so graphic
Fearless Leader: Let's take a break
chelyha55: but I am concerned
Fearless Leader: you check out the cat
Fearless Leader: I'll get more coffee
Fearless Leader: Syl, you figure out what you want to see done
Fearless Leader: and I'll be back in a bit
Fearless Leader: ok?
sylsnovelties: okie
chelyha55: Well, she's purring, so that's good
chelyha55: I can tell she doesn't feel good though
Fearless Leader: I got to make some lettuce
sylsnovelties: okie
Fearless Leader: so I have green mixed with a lot of translucent for one layer
Fearless Leader: and a darker green for the other layer
sylsnovelties: Sounds good.
Fearless Leader: I'm going to slice and stack this after pinching one side into a wedge shape, so when I stack it'll fan out
Fearless Leader: that's the plan
chelyha55: so my other cat can catch treats out of the air when you toss them to him
chelyha55: just like a dog
Fearless Leader: adding spring onion stack to the layers
Fearless Leader: just experimenting
sylsnovelties: Sounds good to me.
chelyha55: Ok ladies, I'm going to have to bid you goodnight
chelyha55: want to catch the news and then off to bed\
sylsnovelties: Ok, hope you cat is better. Nitey Nite1
chelyha55: Thanks NJ you have been great as usual
chelyha55: thanks Syl
chelyha55: She's eating, so that's good.
chelyha55: Nite nite
chelyha55: NJ isn't watching the screen so tell her I said nitey nite
Fearless Leader: Cheryl
sylsnovelties: ok, sure will.
Fearless Leader: going to go now?
chelyha55: yes
Fearless Leader: nighty night then honey
chelyha55: Nite nite
chelyha55 left the room
Fearless Leader: well there's one leaf on the lettuce head
sylsnovelties: It looks like Romaine!
Fearless Leader: that's the aim, more or less
sylsnovelties: Looks good to me.
Fearless Leader: two more leaves and it'll be a good head of lettuce
sylsnovelties: Yumm
Fearless Leader: well there it is more or less
Fearless Leader: are you all packed for tomorrow?
sylsnovelties: Looks pretty good to me.
Fearless Leader: when are you leaving out?
sylsnovelties: I'm mostly packed!
Fearless Leader: mostly!?!? Yikes
sylsnovelties: We will leave in the morning.
sylsnovelties: heeheehee Right
sylsnovelties: I have a few odds and ends to put in.
Fearless Leader: I'll have my horses head eat the lettuce
Fearless Leader: munch munch
sylsnovelties: heeheehee
Fearless Leader: I thought you'd be here earlier and now my brain is empty. Do you have anything in particular you wanted to see, honey?
sylsnovelties: Tomorrow morning Bill will have to load the oxygen concentrator and the tubing and that kind of thing.
sylsnovelties: You know, NJ, if you want to we can just call it a night. I thought I would be earlier too and Bill's dad called and they talked for over an hour!
Fearless Leader: I'm beat, truth be known. We'll do a Demo as soon as you come home
Fearless Leader: how's that
sylsnovelties: Sounds good to me!
Fearless Leader: and you have a particular thing in mind and we'll do it
Fearless Leader: you get some rest, tomorrow is going to be a long day for you
sylsnovelties: Ok, I'll see what I want and let you know. Yup, tomorrow will be a long day.
Fearless Leader: Love you honey and have a great visit with your Dad
Fearless Leader: xoxox
