Old Slim is lookin' good Curt! Maybe his missus ain't much of a cook and that's why he's kinda skinny, but that's not a bad thing. I married a great cook and now I'm having trouble getting my belt buckled.

He's a cool skinny dude! Looks like he's standing at the end of the bar waitin' for a shot of red eye. Nice job!

Curt,
Great carving there. Slim and I have something in common, too many dounuts! Although I'm afraid if my wife saw Slim, her comment would be why can't you look that good, I think she quit considering my stomach a bulge a long time ago. We have this on going argument about whose fault it is. I tell her it is hers because she keeps making it, she says it is mine and her exact words are "Just because I make it, doesn't mean you have to eat it" I'm still trying to figure out if that food is suppose to be for display purposes only.LOL Thanks for sharing you carving with us Curt.

Safe Carving and God Bless,

Mark
