Grilled cheese sandwich sells for $28k

source
A ten year old grilled cheese sandwich just sold for $28 thousand dollars because people think it has an image of the virgin Mary in it. Also, it has no mold. That can be attributed to the preservatives in fake cheese and white bread, but, what ever. $28 thousand? No shit?!

You mean all I have to do to find some cash is make the virgin Mary appear in some toast? Seriously. This reminds me of a project I did with first graders, I called it Happy Toast. You take some food color and a little water and brush it on white bread in the shape of a happy face. Then you toast it. A face appears. The kids got to eat it with jelly after we took a Polaroid of them with it. (Yeah, we had Polaroids back in the stone age.) The kids loved this project and would get excited when I was spotted getting out of my car carrying a toaster into school. I'm thinking if a first grader can paint a happy face on bread, surely I can paint the virgin Mary. And a couple of Jesus's. An art degree should be good for something. If you see me selling toast on eBay, keep your mouth shut. It's a miracle, I tell you! Mama needs some shoes..and a new car.


(That thing looks more like Faye Raye right before the giant monkey grabbed her.)

 PS..Crabbie's right. It's definitely Marlene Dietrich in the toast. I can even make out her penciled brows. I'm pretty sure the holy virgin never plucked and penciled.

It looks like Marlene Dietrich. If Marlene Dietrich came to me via a piece of toast, I would be very happy. Jesus not so much.

You're right. She was a goddess.

WOW! I just looked up her biography. She was an early feminist. She was one of the first women to wear pants and took roles that deliberately challenged the notion of feminine roles in society. She also played concert piano and violin. Who knew?

MD was also bi-sexual. She was of the mind, that sex is sex, and with whomever you desired at the moment. Michelle Rodriguez has ripped off that statement. As have many others. And looked fabulous in her very sexy androngenous fashions, back in the day. Anjelina Jolie ain't got nuthin' on the queen of androgeny, M.D.
