I had a dream where there was a food called “King’s Hand”, a hollow hand made of m&m cookie, filled with Greek salad. I could not stop thinking about it. Here is the culmination of a week long effort.

instructor at my jewelry class forgot my name while pointing to me as an example, I saw her eyes go wide as she realized she neither knew what to call me or what pronoun to use, she freezes up and then goes “for example what—— Our Valued Classmate has done” . which is, a new one.

You will be shocked to learn what color is I think.
Did you know that the symbolic #BlueJay isn't really blue…In fact, we see them as blue due to the way light reflects off of the inside of their wings! Despite the optical illusion, these birds are beautiful and are part of the logo for our #Toronto.@BlueJays! 💙. 📷jgazze/IG

I feel like I’m insane. “Tell me about a complicated man” is a rich line. “Cannibal king, you eat your people up.” is also great. It is not “suitable for high schoolers”, you are pretending if you think you are smarter than it.

some people would like to know how to make King’s Hand. I don’t claim to know all the answers, but here is how I did it. First, you will need to make a mold of a hand. For this I used food grade silicon putty safe up to 400 deg. I ordered it online. It takes an hour to go solid

Take it out and freeze it! Gotta be cool and solid to demold. Chop up the Greek salad meanwhile. When it is solid remove from the mold, cut around the hand to remove the overhanging edges, fill with salad, cover with base, and you have the King’s Hand

Next, make m&m cookie dough. I just took some recipe off online. Fill your mold with the dough. Set the oven to a lower temp than the recipe requires (mine was 325 vs 375) and bake for like 2-3 times as long. Put the m&ms for the nails and knuckles in first
