The old fashioned way tastes the best, yes?? Very clever shape and the repetition and interesting lines make this really unique.

Wow... what a great idea, shape and form! Simple and complex with all the embedded past and yet... it's all there on the table. The ingredients even, a recipe of sorts, and the repetition, as in real life... really innovative, and feel like we are right there turning... We had a picnic table in our yard too... full of memory.
