Catherine McEver has lately been embroidering slices of bread.
How do you embroider Wonder Bread? Very, very carefully. How long do they last? I have a couple of slices that are over four years old that look just like new.

I'd love to see the chewed gum art. :)
Most breads if left out in an arrid environment and kept away from moisture will last very much like that.
So there is nothing creepy or odd about the way that bread lasts up to four years.

My odd art hobby since highschool has been chewed gum art. My latest experiment has been making them into little flowers.
SparkS...LOL, I have no idea what the difference is supposed to be.
I think that the stiffness would make it easier unless it went too stale, come to think about it, because then it would be crunchy!
might help. Then again that could be a liability.
What's the difference between French bread and Italian bread? Don't say one is sold in Paris and the other is sold in Rome!
@MC - Don't you use bread to remove a broken light bulb in a socket? Either that or a potato, I forget.
(turn the switch off first)
I do like this clock. I think it's because I get the sense of about what time it is instead of the exact time. Since the arrival of the digital display I feel inundated with the obsession to know the exact time. I feel a sense of freedom when I go through my day without caring what time it is. This clock would help me keep that feeling while providing a gentler and sometimes necessary reminder of the time of day.
For instance:
It's about four.
and not
"At the sound of the tone it is exactly four thirteen."
And come on, if after owning the clock for a day or two you can't approximate how closely the hands are to forming the letters withing (a very generous) fifteen minutes, you probably should just have a big digital watch anyway and forget the "hands" style altogether :)
This is a very clever art piece.
