What to do if your keyboard on the screen. And if there are dozens of screens: At CES, the Russian design Art Lebedev, the company shows upcoming Optimus Aux Optimus popularis keyboard with a mini and a series of six unique keyboard for data input devices on the key to the home screen.
Materials:
piece of copper- I ordered the Multipurpose Copper from McMaster Carr 1/8" thick 1"w and 12"l for about $10 and that is enough to make 2 of these bangles.
Tools :
-Ball Peen Hammer
-file - either a mill or flat file works great
- Anvil- Not necessary, if you have a chunk of wood or something you dont mind denting as you hammer you are all set
-bench grinder- again, not necessary, but way faster than just using the file...
Ingredients:
1 cup certified gluten-free oat flour (I make my own using rolled oats in the food processor...so easy and inexpensive)
1/2 cup sorghum flour
1/2 cup millet flour
1/4 cup cornstarch
1 tsp xanthan gum
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
1 cup coconut palm sugar
1 cup melted butter (2 sticks)
2 eggs
2 TB whole milk
1.5 tsp vanilla
1.5 cups bittersweet chocolate chips
1.5 cups chopped macadamia nuts (I chopped these in the food processor as well)
Instructions:
Using a whisk, mix your flours, cornstarch, xanthan gum, salt and baking soda together in a small bowl. Set aside.
In your stand mixer using the paddle attachment on low speed, mix the melted butter and coconut sugar. Add in the eggs, milk and vanilla. Slowly add your dry ingredient mix to the mixer bowl....mix until well combined. Add in your chocolate chips and macadamia nuts on the "stir" setting until they are just mixed in.
Chill the dough in the fridge for 30-45 minutes. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees. Drop by rounded tablespoon onto a baking sheet. Bake for 10-11 minutes. Makes about 39 cookies.
Notes: The only word I can use to describe eating one of these is heavenly. Its the kind of cookie you want to snack on with a cup of tea....every single day of the week :)
You can buy bias tape in any retail craftyplace for $2 and change (plus gas). You can also order bias tape online, paying a ridiculous shipping cost (or waiting FOREVER for it to arrive). However, commercial bias tape is typically solid in color, comes in 3 yd. packages, and is sometimes difficult to coordinate with your sewing project. With $3 in fabric*, some thread, and a couple hours, you can make continuous miles** of your very own. * full retail. I picked up this piece for $0.72, including tax. It can be done for free if you have discarded clothing or sheets you are willing to cut into.
** ok, yards, but an easy 4-5x more!

This is perfect for those times you fancy something different, but don't have fancy things in the cupboard that other recipes call for. I tried having a look around for a recipe, but couldn't find one that I had everything in for, so I raided the cupboards and made my own :)
Also works great as a dip!
