Verbosity and Lesbian Art

[greenstorm]

First off, it's cold outside. It's a foggy cold, the kind where you can see the individual drops of mist hanging under the streetlights and feel them as little blades of ice against your skin. Not cold enough to chill to the bone if you're behind a shelter, but icy.

Second off, I must regretfully admit to making stereotypical Lesbian Art. This is a terrible thing. Are you ready for the details?

The SO and I need sauce dishes, for eating sushi or whatever, and so I figured, why don't I make some at my pottery class? So I got there today, and the wheels were all full, and I thought I'd play around. So what did I make? Vaginal sauce dishes, complete with pretty little clits on one end.

This is what repressed, tragic lesbian artists are supposed to make, right? It's terribly funny that it's me doing it. I don't *feel( stereotypical or repressed.

On the bus ride home I was thinking, okay, so I'm really bi and not lesbian. So since I have two vaginal sauce dishes (and one vaginal plate thus far, on the way to a full dinner set) then why not make two more, phallic sauce dishes?

I'm just wondering how to do that logistically.

I'm so entertained. :)

Also, my house no longer smells like it did when we moved in. Now it smells like my home and that's cool. Must be because I've been cooking on so many consecutive days.

The polenta was a success, I like it fried and it doesn't feel icky like pasta does. Gnocci next. Well, after the roast chicken. :/ Need to find a good non-chicken-only butcher around here.

Thinking about making baked beans on Saturday, but not sure if the day will be settled enough to get through them. Those are a great thing to make at home. :)

First you make molds of your breasts, and now you make plates with pussies? Yeah, you need penis salt and pepper shakers. Post pictures when you have the set! ;)

Man, you could make awesome martini glasses from a breast mold, nipple downward, with the stem formed into a stream of white liquid with a splash as the base. ;)

Re:

Ooh, that could really be interesting if done well. You'd have to worry about balance issues, too, considering most people don't have their nipple right in the center of their breast.

Re:

Offset seems to depend to a large extent on size of breast (larger ones are more asymmetrical that way) and positioning of model too, of course. If you could get someone's torso horizontal, nipple facing the ground, and mold it like that...?

Perhaps instead of sauce dishes you might want to make oil-and-vinegar dispensers?

Re:

You need someone with the capacity to suspend someone from their cieling in a safe manner. That would be best I think, that way the breasts would fall downward away from the torso naturally.

Re:

*laugh* Or someone could just, yannow, sit on their hands/elbows and knees for a bit. Though that might be less fun.

Re:

Teaset, with cream pitcher?

Re:

[breklor.livejournal.com]

Ooh yes!

Re:

[greenstorm.livejournal.com]

But how do you make a phallic pitcher, fergoodnessakes? Teapot I can see, with the spout, but, a pitcher?

:>

Re:

[miravaz.livejournal.com]

Sure, but having them kneel would tire them out and may be bad for their knees. Sheesh.. have some compassion. *laughs*

Re:

[breklor.livejournal.com]

I don't know, really.

You see, that's why I suggested the oil-and-vinegar dispensers: you could get away with giving them tiny holes through which you have to shake the oil and vinegar, and then they'd have rubber plugs at the bases, like salt shakers often do.

Dunno if that'd be a perfect solution, but I think it'd work.

Lesbian art is fun

or at least, I seem to think it is...;)

Penis shaped chopstick rests, I say!

[darthmaus.livejournal.com]

Hee! I saw somebody in the first week making a pinchpot that looked vaginal. Or maybe I have a one-track mind.

Weather -- argh. Ah, well, it will seem balmy compared to Peterborough!

Re:

[greenstorm.livejournal.com]

Oh, right, compassion. Yeah, you're right. ;P

Re:

There's no doubt about these. The teacher was very complimentary.

I've noticed that art teachers in general really approve of women doing genital-themed art, at least in my experience.

Hmmmm....

[seeker9.livejournal.com]

Heh.. Very interesting...

Gnocci.. Now there's something good... Of course, I'm also the person that likes Couscous that's been flavored in a mushroom broth.

[polypagangirl.livejournal.com]

Wow. Everyone has such GOOD ideas! I love the way you people think! :D And greenstorm . . . you go girl. I can't wait to see the results.

Re:

[babboo.livejournal.com]

Oooooo, such a cool idea.

Re:

[greenstorm.livejournal.com]

I can't wait to see them either. So much waiting...

Re:

[greenstorm.livejournal.com]

Mmm, have a recipe?

Re:

[seeker9.livejournal.com]

I'll check with my wife.. She should have at least one, if not a few recipes..

Re:

[seeker9.livejournal.com]

From my wife: May want to try this one: http://www.foodnetwork.com/food/recipes/recipe/0,,FOOD_9936_24607,00.html

it's thematic!

Re: Lesbian art is fun

I still think the set is gonna have to have four settings, with two male and two female pieces per type, so two penis plates and two vagina plates, two penis cups and two vagina cups, etc. Mix and match at will.

Re:

[greenstorm.livejournal.com]

Thanks, I'll look it up when I have a sec. Re: EQIM, I'm running a bit late and won't be over there till two or so anyhow, so we should be fine. I'll talk to the guildleader and figure out what I want to do, then let you know about it. Then you'll get home, and we can play :)

hrm. maybe the penis plates should be in relief, then?
