Playing with my Food

Ooooh. I'd hoped for a meat slicer, but Joachim knew eventually I'd buy myself one anyway. So he got me the Best Kitchen Toy Ever, something I've been dying for but would never ever get for myself. The EggBot from Evil Mad Scientist Laboratories. It took a couple of hours of simple assembly and set-up to get it up and running, and then we were ready to take it for a spin.

The EggBot will work on anything spherical or reasonably ovoid (e.g. incandescent light bulbs, golf balls, etc.). We've run a couple of sample pictures and experimented a bit, and I am ready to start making my own pictures and seeing how they turn out. Maybe it isn't world domination, but it's the most fun I've had playing with my food in many a year.
