Boneless snacks

[urbpan]

Using an idea from here, posted on the invertebrates community, I made Ammonites in a blanket.

That's the best thing I've seen all day.

[ursulav.livejournal.com]

I cannot adequately express how much I approve of this.

[bellelvsbeast.livejournal.com]

AWWWW I saw those and thought they were nifty...so cool you made them! :)

[octogirlie.livejournal.com]

That. Is. AWESOME.

(Are those veggie dogs?)

[urbpan.livejournal.com]

They are. Smart dogs, I believe.

[chocomocha.livejournal.com]

Cutest food post ever. :)

I totally need to make some of these now (with tofu dogs, though!).

[urbpan.livejournal.com]

Those are tofu dogs there!

So much awesomeness I don't know where to START.

I MUST do this! Damn my lack of pasty dough! Or olives.

[urbpan.livejournal.com]

I cheated and used the croissant dough that comes in a vacuum tube (like pilsbury, but I used the store brand).

I'm amazed no one else has mentioned Joost Elffers yet.

You like to play with your food, do you?

[triesticity.livejournal.com]

so so great!

[gemfyre.livejournal.com]

Omigosh that is too cute and geeky for words.

[antarcticlust.livejournal.com]

That is officially THE coolest thing I've ever seen. May I link to this from my science discussion community, thelunarsociety?

[urbpan.livejournal.com]

Sure thing!

[iheartoothecae.livejournal.com]

Woo!! Too neat. I want to make some of those.

[abearius.livejournal.com]

Brilliant. I will use this one day.

[perspicuity.livejournal.com]

holy crap :) that's AWESOME :)

I love it. These are a classic--right up there with the kitty litter cake (http://www.fabulousfoods.com/recipes/dessert/cakes/kittylittercake.html) and hauntmeister's meathead (http://cascade.mit.edu/halloween/meathead.html).

[deathling.livejournal.com]

THOSE ARE ADORABLE!!!!

[dinahprincedaly.livejournal.com]

genius!

[fledchen.livejournal.com]

That is so freaking cool!

Looks yummy!

I'm linking to this (http://monado2.blogspot.com/2007/03/invertebrate-snacks.html) from my science blog.

At first glance I thought the tentacles were beet stalks or red swiss chard. Hot dogs are doubtless tastier.

[brush-rat.livejournal.com]

If you slice the doggies first, and then boil them, the the tentacles curl up in a very attractive manner. I think I'll go make some for the kids right now as a matter of fact.

[urbpan.livejournal.com]

would tofu dogs curl?

[brush-rat.livejournal.com]

I think so. I think it's due to the casing shrinking up or the meat or tofu puffing up.

[hissilliness.livejournal.com]

That rawks! Your ammonites look better than the ones you linked to.

[urbpan.livejournal.com]

Thanks! I like the way they turned out. :)

[ms-vanilla.livejournal.com]

You just solved the 'what to give my boyfriend for dinner' problem. Oh thankyouthankyouthankyou.

[urbpan.livejournal.com]

You're welcome! How about some Wensleydale with that?

[ms-vanilla.livejournal.com]

That's a cracking idea!

Between these and the trilobite fudge molds I picked up from American Science & Surplus, I now know what to serve at the party I'm thinking about throwing at the Society of Vertebrate Palaeontology conference this fall.

[urbpan.livejournal.com]

trilobite fudge molds is a wonderful idea!!!

[sclerotic-rings.livejournal.com]

Well, then here you go (http://www.sciplus.com/singleItem.cfm?terms=11326&cartLogFrom=Search). AS&S is a very, very dangerous place, and that's why I like it so much.

[ms-vanilla.livejournal.com]

Holy cow! Your icon pictures my favorate childhood dinosaur book, I spent hours dreaming over the illustrations! Sorry, couldn't resist letting you know :)
