Dr fish has always said, if you google it, it will exist.... Tonight, something came up where I realized I need meat ornaments. Yes, meat. I could see them in my mind's eye... glorious mercury glass steaks, sausage garland, bacon hanging like icicles. I was giddy with excitement. I knew they had to be out there. All I needed to do was GOOGLE!!@!11!
They. Weren't. There.
In defense of fish's google theory, I did find meat ornaments that were made up of those ubiquitous porcelain ovals that have whatever you want placed on the front with a decal. That's NOT WHAT I WANTED!!@! Didn't Google know?!! I could see them!! Where were they!?!
I then realized, maybe I'd found a hole in the ornament market! Could it be there there are no blown glass meat ornaments?? Oh come on! If only I knew how to make mercury glass... Does anyone know anyone who manufacturs mercury glass ornament? Anyone willing to manufacture a nice holiday T-Bone?? Hmmmm??
Also... I'm tired, so my finessing of the google may not be up to snuff. Anyone who locates some glass meat ornaments will get a prize and fish will get an apology.
If you ask the right elf, Snag might detonate a whale, or maybe a moose, near your tree....
poof!! instant meat decorations!!!

I'm not one to butt in, but you should have gone with the 58 inch.
Until you have seen Guy Richie's seminal "Swept Away" on a 58-incher you really haven't watched tv.

I'm insane. No meat per se, but I found a "deli sandwich ornament".

What the heck is Ted Williams doing over here?? Or is that just his head?
ZRM- While your suggestion sounds intriguing and somewhat like a Cavallaro">http://inventorspot.com/articles/food_art_18979">Cavallaro exhibit... the ornaments aren't for my tree. They're for someone else's and I don't think I can mail the whole "detonating whale/Snag" package..
Dan!! That's the closest thing I've seen!!

And if you are looking to buy.

While very funny... it's not mercury glass, now is it??
Posted by: Jennifer | December 05, 2008 at 07:48 AM
Or with a little sizzle.

Ha! I saw the Etsy ones last night... a delicious CLOTH t-bone. NOT MERCURY GLASS! This blogger was asking the almighty and all powerful Google for GLASS...

Closer.
Posted by: fish | December 05, 2008 at 07:52 AM
Preprocessed.
Posted by: fish | December 05, 2008 at 07:53 AM
Ceramic?
Posted by: fish | December 05, 2008 at 07:55 AM
Oh! Now even though they're not glass, the sparkly bacon and the ceramic bacon are kind of nice...
You're a show-off, fish. Still... even though these are approaching fabulous, they're not the mercury glass t-bone I had in my mind... and where's the sausage garland?? Hmmm?
Posted by: Jennifer | December 05, 2008 at 07:59 AM
Isn't sausage garland just a string of sausages that you buy at the deli?
