sorry if i got taken in on the buildings thing...have never seen that
one before...but, hey let's not get rude about it. use the delete key.


spooze
1 cup sugar...any kind, honey, sugar, sugar syrup
1 cup vinegar, any kind
1 cup slip of your choice, you choice of thickness.

karo is corn syrup...and i misspelled it.
the reason i suggest corn syrup is that every house in america
has a jar that is about 40 years old...good use for it. i just ran and
checked our basement supplies and found a jar that had to have been
purchased in 1966.

Hi, Diane in Miami - what is a yo-yo box??
Dai in Kelowna (where the .htm was outside the "box", Ken---and obviously my
brain isn't. I'm red-faced!)

There is an alarming increase in the number of things that I know nothing
about.

karo syrup also makes an excellent binder/hardener for glazes, ala cmc.
smells like a candy factory during glaze firing!
