Spam + Martha Stewart

Please listen to this week's Wait Wait Don't Tell Me.

SAGAL: Yeah. Is it hard - I want to ask, again, because I'm interested in what your life is like, because I've seen your shows and I've read your magazine. One of the things I admire so much about you is you make everything sort of excellent and classy and lovely no matter what you start with. We had some challenges for you to see what you would think of to do with this.

STEWART: Oh, OK.

SAGAL: Here we go. So, for example, let's say, I say Martha, here's your project, boom, on the table, a can of Spam.

STEWART: What would I do with it?

SAGAL: Yes.

STEWART: Oh, I would open the can.

SAGAL: Yes.

STEWART: I would slice it into about between an eighth and a quarter of an inch slices.

SAGAL: Uh-huh.

STEWART: And I would fry it in butter, just lightly sauté it in butter, nice butter, unsalted butter and I would eat it with Dijon mustard on nice country white bread, crusty bread. It is delicious.

I have the summer-time craft bug.

Inspired by all the summer-time festivities, I am just itching to bust out the craft paper and glitter and get my craft on. Too bad there isn't a Micheal's Craft store in the East Village. Bummer. So, instead I've been living vicariously through others. Here are my new favorite craft-a-licious blogs.
