I guess this isn’t geeky, but I love it so I’m sharing it anyway. Another great one from ZaneyMcBanes - a Julia Child amigurumi! Bon appetit!

Craftster user Pretty in Pink made this gruesome pie out of salt dough to go with Sweeney Todd costumes for her husband and herself.

Okay, this isn’t actually geeky, but it cracks me up so I’m posting it anyway. Craftster user chickenfeet (I’m sensing a theme here) made a Kentucky Fried Chicken Colonel Sanders costume for her baby last year. For the wig, she knitted a cap and then tied yarn all over in loops.

Anthropomorphic food amuses me to no end, and this zombie potato from Craftster Kitty Ballistic is no exception. Sewn of felt with embroidered details, she says,
“Nathan is a bit of an outcast amongst his spuddy pals. They’re not really worried that he’s going to eat their brains on account of the fact that A) he doesn’t have a mouth and B) they’re tubers, they don’t have brains. They don’t even mind his unusual skin tone, although there have been rumours that his ’scar’ was drawn on with felt tipped pen. Nathan ignores their comments, he knows his moment in the spotlight will come. He’s just waiting for his big break - a starring role in “Dawn of the Vegetable Rack”.”
Yes, a zombie potato named Nathan. I love this. Kitty also makes mere mortal potatoes, in case you’re not into the current zombie craze.

I know this isn’t exactly a “craft” but this Egg Cuber from The Kitchen Store is just way too cool not to tell you about. Seriously, aside from the word “MONK!!” popping into my head as soon as I saw it, I also had visions of food-colored cubed eggs becoming Tetris pieces on a large platter for the Easter brunch I am planning, or a big cubed-egg Rubik’s Cube. Honestly, OCD or not, this is the most awesome invention you could own for $2.99 plus shipping.
I’d love to write more but I need to put my order in.
