Things i have been doing

Ok. Im terrible at keeping this updated. So here is some pictures of what i have been up to.

I am currently trying to make my own hot sauce. The recipe seems simple but damn does it look hot. For the first batch i actually used five different types of chillies including thai green chillies, jalapeneos, and scotch bonnets. In an attempt to make it not so deadly i deseeded all of the chillies excet for the thai green cause they were too small to deseed. I also added extra sugar so we will see how things go. Currently the chopped up chillies are sitting in the sugar and vinegar mixture with garlic and salt. Next step is to blend them into a smooth paste and then can them. This is just one of the many canned recipies i picked up in my canning and preserving class that i just finished.

The next two photos are a cooking based art project i found on youtube and throught i would give a try. The idea is to clean chicken bones and use them to make dragon skeletons. This is the second time i have tried to clean chicken bones. The first time didnt work out to well for me. This time i started wih boiling the bones with some dishwasher soap and when that failed i got an old toothbrush and a parring knife and cleaned things by hand. Now that the bones are clean i can whitten them with peroxide and then connect them with jewelers wire. I think the first dragon i am going to attempt to make is going to be toothless from how to train your dragon 2 which is a pretty good movie btw.
