Apparently she is of the "We don't need no stinkin doors!" school of housekeeping.I'm out of things I can paint. I'm a lot better at painting actual objects than pictures of objects. I'm not allowed to improve anything else that doesn't belong to me (by "request" of the owner of the house, who told me I don't Have to put the cabinet doors back on, but that maaaaaaybe I should ask first next time. She's totally right, I should have asked).
So.....You dont like having your advice ignored. ............ Hmmmph ...............I'm sorry, .....were you saying something???? (just kidding, couldn't resist, thought the humor would fit your avatar) Hey, it's their loss. I'd pay good money to get advice from a professional carbulgencist!There are few things more annoying to me than taking the time to post my best advice in someone's thread and then having that person ignore it and instead respond to all the antagonizing comments other have made. Not sure if that's my problem with wanting to be acknowledged and validated as wise / smart or other people's problem of caring more about being seen to be right than actually wanting to solve a problem.
In other news, I went to the bakery and got a pretzel and a hamburger bun (and there are macaroni noodles in the cupboard for the long anticipated macaroni and cheese). Let the birthday carbulgence begin.
(carbulgence- a word that is a combination of carb, bulge, and indulgence soon to officially enter the English language with the definition of : a major cheat on a low carb diet that occurs when a person indulges in so many carbs that they start to get some of their undesirable bulges back).

Since the inside of the skillet (from what I see in the picture) is also grey, I would say go for the opaque solid black. Or, if you can - try a silver base.
Happy working on this project! Post the pictures once it is completed!
Is it "gray" or "grey"? Hmmmm... I wonder....
That is turning out really cool, Steve!! I'd go with the black for some nice contrast.View attachment 128375
Went and bought some obnoxiously yellow solid glass for the yolks and have officially begun my multimedia project with an art buddy at the studio. He made three wonderful skillets to frame my bacon and eggs design. This is a fun collaboration! This egg is going to be the most difficult cut, so I got that out of the way first - should finish with at least one of them this weekend!
