seneschal Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Starship Modeler - Unspeakable Creations Pt. 1 Ran across this article at the Starship Modeler web site, and it gives links to similar sites. However, this one has the best "thing" of the ones I've viewed. Interestingly, my wife recently began fermenting a supposed health brew called kefir (aka keifer), which is created by feeding sugar water to a fungi starter that she got from my natural foods-conscious sister. The large pickle jar she has it growing in looks disturbingly like these craft projects. The mass must be up to two or three pounds by now. My sister assures me it won't escape at night to prey upon us, but why then do I keep finding those wet trails across the kitchen floor early in the morning?

Erasmus1966 Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 That's just nasty at the conceptual level, let alone in reality Persuade her to brew beer instead Quote No power in the 'Verse can stop me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seneschal Posted November 3, 2012 Author Share Posted November 3, 2012 After a few weeks, the new wore off and my wife tired of feeding the THING in the jar sugar. It died a long, slow, agonizing, appropriately icky death -- first separating into a series of broad, mushroom cap-like discs, then rotting. She only recently dumped it and bleached the jar.

soltakss Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 It really is better, and tastier, to buy it from a supermarket! Less chance of anything crawling across the table.

Erasmus1966 Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 This is probably a bit rich coming from me, given the general level of 'Ick' ( seneschal 2012) I build into my beasties.... but ewwww Quote No power in the 'Verse can stop me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
