Salt Dough

Today Samantha was going to make a salt dough map of Egypt.  She got all the supplies out (bowls, mixing spoons, flour, salt, map) and then informed me we didn't have food coloring.  So off to Food Lion (which is becoming BLOOM in a couple days) and we get some food coloring.

 

How did I spend $15.00 on food coloring???

 

Oh right...the vanilla ice cream to go with the apple crisp that Samantha had made.  The chocolate for me.  The special coffee creamer for Roy as a surprise. 

 

Okay. Back to salt dough.  :)

 

So she mixes it up, asks me to lend a hand to the mixing in of the color.  I'm thinking...this seems so runny...but whatever.  I go through the instructions with her.  Everything done.

 

So I explain the map part.  She does that.  Then gets my help in putting the dough into the right spots.  IT's so .... runny....doesn't stay put.  I figure well, you just put the other color in and it all kind of holds together....

 

But then they start blending and it won't stay put.  Hmm...

 

So, Sam finishes up with putting in the Nile River.  Had fun.

 

She cleans everything up.

 

Comes and informs me that she did 1 cup of flour instead of 6.

 

LOL

 

We'll try again tomorrow.

I hope that your project turned out better with the extra cups of flour! It's amazing what one little mistake can do to a recipe or project.

Have a wonderful week!

As the Mickey Mouse Club groomed the children of the 60s for the 70s revelry cycle so is the Disney-production that is Hannah Montana grooming the children for the next revelry cycle, 2010-2020. Similarly, as guitar strumming was very sociable back then so is Guitar Hero the training tool used to gain male interest today.
Osama struck a "deal" with a record company executive in 2007::::With this Democrat in office I suspect we are going to witness an intense revelry cycle like we experienced in the 1970s.
