Chapeau Show

Posted by Moose on February 29th, 2008. Filed under: Photos.

If you accurately deduced that the best use for a stack of leftover pasta sheets is to sculpt pasta fowl and many cunning pasta hats for the pasta fowl, you are very smart indeed and I applaud you. You may also have deduced that I have a delicate system and should not be allowed within a city block of carbonated sugar water.

    Is is bad that I laughed out loud when I got to “Pastafarian”?

  2. Nothing But Bonfires

    My favorite is Hungarian Grandma Pasta. So real! So life-like!

  3. She Likes Purple

    My favorite is pasta who chews its stitches.

    This is utterly hilarious. I might be in love with you based only on this entry.

  5. Moose

    Oh yeah! I forgot to show you the pasta tree.

    I really hope I remembered to take the pasta off their plant before we left.

    Pasta fowl. Is that like party foul? Only different? Pasta flock of seagulls looks just like Crunchy boy in the morning when he hasn’t had his hair cut.

  7. Camels & Chocolate

    Where is Howard the (Pasta) Duck? And Donald? And Daisy? I’m disappointed, Moose. You left off some of history’s top ducks! But I applaud your creativity nevertheless.

  8. Leah

    Oh man.

    Oh. Man.

    My favorite part is that the hats are so well-crafted and creative, and yet the duck itself? Doesn’t even have a proper beak.

    You are a true artist.

  9. Dave

    I owe it all to my pasta-in-crime, Moose. Let’s collaborate on other food wasting art in the future.

    Little Pasta on the Prairie has paisley print on underneath that hat doesn’t she?

  11. Good Girl Lit

    Moose, only you would appreciate this, I think. So I love the French duck the best, the one with the beret, the first one. Oh la la!

    But he makes me think of one of my pet peeves, which is of course: duck a la orange.

    What. is. this. dish?

    Why isn’t it canard a la orange? Or even duck in a orange sauce. Really, I could live with either but not some combination thereof.

    Um…thanks for canoodling with the pasta. It made my day.

  12. Jemima

    Dude, I’m with May up there. What is WITH duck a l’orange? But the duck is the cutest pasta foul ever. I had great fun meeting him on my fancy new iPhone.

  13. velocibadgergirl

    Would it be inappropriate to ask you to be my girlfriend? Because this is HILARIOUS.

  14. dkaye

    Those are great! That would make for some interesting dumplings, huh.

  15. All Adither

    How long did you have to think about these? Wildly funny.

  16. Leah

    I must know: WHAT HAPPENED TO THE DUCK?

  17. Moose

    Leah: Here I have to admit that I sculpted the duck. Dave made all the hats. Which explains both the hat mastery and the complete lack of a proper beak.

    Dave: For our next master work, I’m envisioning something entitled “Symphony in Onion Ring Major.” Or perhaps “Prelude to a Beet.”

    May and Jemima: Duck l’orange is a crime against nature. And ducks.

    Velocibadgergirl: Propositions are NEVER inappropriate. I will apply for the post immediately.

    All Adither: It’s amazing how little thought randomness needs when one person is drunk and the other is hopped up on sugar. That said, AGES. Such genius takes time.

    Leah, again: Oh dear. I’m so sorry to have to tell you this. The pasta duck is now cavorting merrily through fields of wildflowers on the pasta duck farm. (In other words, we fried him up and ate him.) (Not really.) (He got left at the party.) (I assume they laminated him and put him on a pedestal.)

    I am sitting here wondering if it is possible to cook the pasta duck. I am so cruel.

  19. The Over-Thinker

    OOOOOoooo! I smell an Etsy Shop!

    I can’t stop humming “Matchmaker, Matchmaker, make me a match…” after seeing the Hungarian Grandma pasta. You kill me.
