easily amused by donuts and cheese

Coworker Who is Not My Boyfriend and I have decided that we need to work in an entirely new medium, to take our art to the next level, if you will. Neither of us has ever worked in any sort of dairy-based media at all, so we have some homework to do before we embark on our masterpiece. Currently, we’re preparing to do a few experiments concerning the materials and processes necessary to succesfully weld cheese.

I ask you, what could be better than NFL-themed cheese sculptures? We’re not ready to work from one big block of cheese – one slip and the whole piece is ruined. Rather, we envision our initial forays to be multi-piece creations that we will assemble to form the larger work.

I admit we stole this idea shamelessly from an incredibly surreal poster that shows Brett Favre, surrounded by cheese, gazing longingly at a replica of the Lombardi Trophy made entirely of cheese.

And yes, Batty, there will be pictures.

Husband thinks there’s probably a pre-made mold in which one could make such a thing, but I’m not sure if I want to know if such a thing exists. And frankly, I don’t want to search for it hard enough to find it if it’s out there. I’m not sure I can live in a world where there’s such a demand for such items.

Not to mention that this then takes the enterprise from cheese-sculpting to the actual making of cheese.

Cheesemaking.com has many practical cheesemaking items, and cheesesupply.com goes so far as to sell a heart-shaped cheesemold, but no Lombardi Trophy mold.

Maybe I should try looking for chocolate molds…

While we work through this quandry, enjoy the creepy, yet hypnotic, donuts, courtesy of memepool. (be sure your speakers are on).
