B. O. B. ODDITIES – FLAPJACK FOLLIES
Yes, I made pancakes again last weekend … with the usual strange and unusual results.
The EAT OR BE EATEN … the pancake that comes out looking like some form of alien being that would rather eat you than being eaten.
The SLIPPERY STACK … short stubby stack that becomes a slippery balancing act made even more difficult with the addition of maple surple.
The SCRAPE-OUT … thepancake made with the last batter left in the bowl that has to be scraped out with a spatula where it sticks and has to be scraped off with a spoon and when it falls it never falls on top of the batter already in the griddle. By the way, that dark spot that looks like a raisin is really a CRAISIN because I wanted to see what a cranberry pancake would taste like. Surprisingly, it tasted just like a raisin pancake.
BOB’S OBSERVATION: No matter what a pancake looks like, it never goes uneaten!
DAILY CALENDAR CHALLENGE #106 – APRIL 16
#1 THE ORIGAMI CALENDAR CHALLENGE – THE CARRIER BIRDLooks fairly simple, doesn’t it?
I got it folded, but it was the most difficult thing I’ve worked on yet. Why …….?
Look at those Mickey Mouse sized stubby fingers next to the finished piece!
#2 THE MENSA PUZZLE CALENDAR – INSERT AND ADD
This one’s not easy, but it can be solved. One should be visible right away.
ANSWER
OK, I could not figure out #1.
It was firetrap.
#3 THE PAGE-A-DAY PUZZLE CALENDAR – ALPHAMETICS
OK, C equals 9 and E equals 8 — you only have to figure out eight more letter values! But with head feeling twice its normal size due to my spring allergies, my brain refuses to work with numbers. I’ll come back later today when the wheezing and sneezing lets up a bit.
OK, I was not able to concentrate enough to figure this one out today.
