You know what I love most about this post??

Is the fact that I know, I just **KNOW** you are going to be seduced by this and are going to try it yourself.

Is it wrong that I really really hope it's some sort of culinary disaster and am looking forward to the hilarious report that will follow???? smileys/smile.gif

Harder than it looks - and not as smooth...I've tried it

Shhhh. Don't listen, Marilyn. You can do it!

Oh my!! I laughed out loud at the office with this one!

Rather embarrassing as I am still in the "starting" period at my new job!

Looks so simple in the tutorial, but even though I went through it a couple of times, I wouldn't know how to do this. All you see is the results, and NO ACTION.

I CAN'T wait to "hear" Marilyn's report! And I, too, KNOW she can do it. GO MARILYN!

Oh! the pressure to screw up!

Luckily, I've shown I'm more than capable of this.
