Chocolate Cake Mold

Mold started to grow exceptionally fast on a leftover chocolate cake hanging around the kitchen. I think the mold must have grown so quickly because it was a very very good chocolate cake, and not full of preservatives. Note the cool, gnarly little flower-like dealies at the ends of the mold spores.

The total area for the entire patch of mold was smaller than a dime, and it just appears to be a velvety, short, soft whitish-green fuzz. the portion I have shown here is a little smaller than a grain of rice.

Pinpoint

This the the pin, stuck into the skin of my thumb. I know, it's kind of gross, but I wanted to see what it would look like.

Below is the pin point, without my thumb. Below that is a closer crop of the tip.

Yet Another Weird Seed Pod Thing

This little deal fell off of a local tree, it's soft and fuzzy and seems to have tiny seeds in it. It's about 2cm long and of course looks strange when we look up close!

Yeast, Aluminum Packaging, Kitchen Table

The objects above are not teeth. They are dry baking yeast nubs, the kind that come in a little foil package. I didn't know what to expect when I shot them, and this is what I got! Weird world.

Below is a shot of the edge of the foil packet the yeast came in. Further below is a slightly wider shot of the same section of the yeast package.

Here we have a piece of our kitchen table, it's formica or something. If you look very close, there appear to be tiny threads within the white textured resin of this tabletop. I suppose this might be made in a process similar to fiberglass, whereby a fiber and resin mixture is molded and dried.
