On Saturday I'm off to a 'Wreathmaking Class' (the Christmas type, not the funereal type!). When I was speaking to one of the ladies who is running it, she gave me some ideas for different things to consider using.
One of the things she suggested was dried pomegranates, and told me all I needed to to was slice one up and dry it out in the oven...easy peasy!
I decided that tonight was the night for the drying out, and proceeded to slice and put the pomegranate in the oven...then promptly forgot about them!!! I forgot to turn the heat down and forgot they were even in the oven..till the 'scent' of charred fruit reached the living room!
This is the result
No wonder Winnie-the Pooh has that look on his face!!
When I tell DD about it, she will only laugh and say 'what did you expect?'. She is forever telling people that we only ever eat 'burnt' food, as I ALWAYS forget to set a timer and get engrossed in something (often paper-related) that puts all thought of what might be in the oven out of my mind!
Looks like I'll be off to buy pomegranates tomorrow, and try again!
I'll have a few more JYC pages to share in the next day or so...I ran out of Photopaper over the weekend,so printing of my pics ground to a halt. The problem has now been rectified and printing has now resumed!
Thanks for dropping by!
Take care of you
