spider webs!


Today I saw something at the Crozet Farmers Market that really caught my attention.  A young lady named Dabney Farmer (Designer of Dabbycats Creations) had a very unusual item she was selling...spider webs!  She somehow perfected the art of laying them down on a piece of slate and preserving it with a clear coating.  While I snapped a few pictures, she told my wife it was it is done with a special secret family "recipe".  I thought they were pretty amazing.  Another cool thing she did was blend fruit drinks with a pedal powered blender hooked up to the back tire of her bicycle!
