Anthropomorphic Nouns
We are all familiar with a Herd of cows, A Flock of chickens, A School of
fish And a Gaggle of geese.
However, less widely known is:
A Pride of lions, A Murder of crows, (as well as their cousins the rooks
and ravens), An Exaltation of doves And, presumably because they look so
wise: A Parliament of owls.
Now consider a group of Baboons. Baboons are the loudest, most dangerous,
most obnoxious, most viciously aggressive and least intelligent of all
primates. And what is the proper collective noun for a group of baboons?
Believe it or not... A Congress! A CONGRESS OF BABOONS! That pretty much
explains the things that come out of Washington !

I'm going to take a guess at this one.
Maybe after the frosting is spread, the side of a rubber spatula is used
to "dent" the frosting enough to create a wavy line.
And since vision is usually the important thing here, the person makes
these dents in just the right places to make the wavy lines appear.

Yes, indeed! Sighted people might frown on this, but washing the hands is
the main thing, which, of course, all of us do!
The one thing I still would like to know is when a sighted person puts
frosting on a cake or on a brownie, how do they get those fancy raised
rippley lines on top?

Sandy, I'm glad to have someone on the same side as myself regarding the
issue of using your finger to even out peanut butter spread or any type
of
other substance like batter in a cake pan.
Like the saying goes: "Fingers were made before forks and knives", when
you
can't see, the finger is the determining criterion in the art of cooking.
I do use a rubber spatula or the back of a wooden spoon to start; but to
get
rid of any "hills and valleys" in the spread, the finger is the final
determinant.

I know this sounds crazy, but if you have the knife moistened with
water,
it
will make it glide on bread more easily. I normally do not do peanut
butter
sandwiches, and my kids are all grown and not home, but it used to work
on
bread or crackers. If you want to be sure it is spread evenly, wet one
of
your other fingers to give it a good touch, and it also will glide
really
smoothly!
The reason I said I do not do peanut butter is merely that I cannot
stand
the stuff! I will make peanut butter cookies for folks.

Does anyone know a good way for a blind person to spread peanut
butter? _______________________________________________
