Toast portraits This guy makes mosaic portraits of famous people using toast.

After viewing the gallery of toast art, I was reminded of this.

Ha, I reckon half of my cooking lives at the Burnt Food Museum.

I'd hate to have to wear a dress made of burnt toast dipped in polyurethane. How uncomfortable would that be? Then again, check out some of the competition.

This was a rad link that should have recieved more comments.

That was a lame comment that shouldn't have posted twice.

OK, I'm done.

The portraits are impressive but I like a lot of the tile-ish toast better.

If you enjoy this tour, perhaps you'd be interested in the "Ghosts of Old MoFi" eeked thread walk? It starts every night at midnight in the Cursed Daisy May thread. $10. Meet under the yellow umbrella.

I never realised it before, but all of dhruva's early posts seem a bit under-appreciated, don't you think?

I love dhruva.

So.


I love dhruva.

Hmm, I'm not sure how forgotten passion connects with K.R.E.A.P., but I'm sure I'll figure it out in a few more posts.

Whee! This tour is fun. I already got the t-shirt, had and commemorative slurpy cup.

hat, not had

If I only had a hat...

They were quietly highly appreciated, at least by me. dhruva has made many excellent posts.

unsubtle as cinnamon
sour-sweet as marmalade

your crumbling face
o antique shade

like buttered toast
will never fade

though down in four
swift bites I gulp you

call as ye like
no one will help you

O crispy morsel
O jelly bed
Warm dark colored crackle
Inside my head

Warning: I have had two shots of The Good Stuff, the Really Good Stuff.

How I love ye, petebest!
Ach, I canna think
about your jelly bed --
it hurts my reelin' highland head.

It nae be soot
Ye briny boot
Hae so tramp'd 'neath ye heels
Tho' spry ye be
Did nae ye see
The toaster heat ye meals?

the old sad tale

I do prefer a honey spread
with friend or foe
though I'd rather go
with a former than a latter --
I must eschew a crumby bed
whereon to lay my bee-thought head --
which is no idle matter
for lo! a week hath fluttered and flown
since I busted my goddamn collarbone
now I need to sleep in my bed alone

the bee abed
with forlorn head
buzzes like a bird
but soon with spring
with less than a word
a bell shall sing
and a dry crumb'll
pop out the top of a toaster to tumble

An art deco toaster pleases me
As much as a poem by our wacky bee
A bread crisper true
And jelly ensue
My breakfastime supper to be!

"You know the whole 'K.R.E.A.P.' thing was totally made up. That's a legal thing, we really need to clarify that: no such thing as 'K.R.E.A.P.', so c'mon guys, stop looking for them. Okay, glad I got that out of the way.

Right, petebest, have I talked about him yet? The thing about petebest is that... he's... he's really an amazing person. Um... like his name is 'petebest' and it's true you know? Like he really is the Best Pete! That's funny, I've never really thought about that before. But seriously, he's just this really professional, amazing guy with a ton of good jokes. I think they were jokes. Um... Well, they're either jokes or he goes to a lot of really weird bars..."

*hits all sorts of buttons on the remote, searching for the commentary in Esperanto*

La angla estas la mona lingvo, sed Esperanto la bona lingvo.

Warm the kitchen
Crisp the bread
Spread on the cream cheese
No, cheddar instead

Toasters rule mornings
And afternoons too
The snacktastic option
Of sleepyhead fools

My toaster blows. I need a new one, something snazzy.

Some crave muffins
in the morning --
others like them best
with tea.

Some want biscuts,
hot, for breakfast,
and serve 'em up
with hot gravy.

The griddlecake
or flapjack stack
suits some folk
for a morning snack.

But serve me piccalilli
or a bowl of beans with redhot chili
or a pickle that's sour and thoroughly dilly --
and watch me down 'em, verily.
