Narrative Digital Collage



This photo represents my fantasy dinner party. The image background and table was taken from DaVinci's famous "The Last Supper" painting, however the banners and candles represent The Great Hall in the Harry Potter films. The people that I'm having supper with are a number of different celebrities and icons whom I admire. Including Seth Rogen and Rupert Grint (on my left and right) who are both my husbands and Taylor Lautner (laying on the ground) is my gigalo. The animals are pets, and the food is a combination of a few of my favorites. Shrimp, smoothies, cookie dough ice cream etc. I call it "The Fabulous Supper!"

Candy-Coated Bacon

This is an original recipe I created a few months ago. This recipe combines two of my favorite ingredients that are equally delicious on their own, but together make a surprisingly tasty snack. The crunchy bacon, covered with the chocolate and M&M's mixed together make a salty sweet desert. This desert isn't calorie conscious and is best served with any juice or soft drink.

Ingredients:
-4 slices, Oscar Meyer thick cut bacon
-1 cup, Baker's chocolate chunks
-1 bag, plain M&M's
-Wooden skewer sticks

Directions: 1)Place bacon strips flat in frying pan. 2)When bacon has cooked, quickly slide bacon on to wooden skewer sticks. 3)Bring 3cups of water to a boil. 4)Pour 1cup of chocolate chunks into glass bowl and set in boiling pan. 5)Stir continually until chocolate is fully melted and smooth.6)Poor chocolate over bacon. 7) Place M&M's on top of chocolate while it is still warm. 8) Place in refrigerator for 30mins or until chocolate hardens.
