I used velcro over the openings so I could remove or swap out the cloth on the side easily. There's also velcro holding the posterboard backing in place, so in theory I can replace it with other backings (like black posterboard or assorted cloth pattern fabrics, as I intend to do at some point).
At some point, I'll also want to get some clear acetate or cellophane that I can velcro on the side as cheap-o colored light filters.

3. Place dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover with a damp towel, and allow to rise in warm place for 1 hour.
4. Divide dough into 8-12 equal-size pieces; roll each piece into a rope; shape each rope into a pretzel.

Homemade Banana Pudding
3/4 cup sugar
1/3 cup flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 egg yolks
2 cups milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 box Nilla wafers
5 bananas, sliced
MIX 3/4 cup sugar, flour and salt in a saucepan over low/medium heat. Blend in 3 egg yolks and milk. Cook, uncovered until thickened, stirring constantly with a wisk. Remove from heat; stir in vanilla.
In a bowl or pan, place one layer of nilla wafers, then cover nilla wafers with sliced bananas. Cover bananas with nilla wafers. Pour some of the custard mixture over the layers. Then do another banana layer, following with a nilla wafer layer. Repeat. Pour more custard over the layers. Be sure that when you're done, Nilla wafers should be the last layer. Use all of your custard for this recipe.
Refrigerate at least one hour before eating. I prefer mine overnight.
Can be served warm, but I like mine served cold. When serving you can top the banana pudding with Redi Whip or Cool Whip.
Thanks to thnomad for this recipe! Ingredients for hot ginger tea. Fresh ginger root, lemon, honey, turmeric, cayenne pepper, water.
I fried these in beef tallow. Just like McDonald's used to do. And I salted them with sea salt.
They were DELICIOUS!
Seth even said they tasted like In & Out. (I think they were better than In & Out.)
We had them with grass-fed steak (Steak Frites) and some Lillet Blanc with a little Pellegrino water and an orange slice. The only thing that would have made this meal better is homemade chocolate ice cream.
The trick to good crispy French fries is you have to either soak them overnight in water (in the fridge) or parboil them (boil them for a couple of minutes). If you don't, they'll come out soggy.
Both removable. Red one is about 1kV 300mA and the white one has many taps for my 330v capacitor bank.
Outside view of my homemade pinhole. I had to use excessive ducttape and tin foil to close up lightleaks. Made the hole using a safety pin through tinfoil.
In the coastal town of Guiuan, Eastern Samar, a group of daycare workers are using homemade toys to entertain the children during a play session. The daycare workers at Guiuan took part in Plan training last year and have been using their toys to great effect. Play sessions are being held both morning and afternoon, with venues varying from tents to small concrete rooms.
