A friend of mine talked me into mummifying a chicken with her. Well, actually it was supposed to be a kid project, but how often does that work out? Especially since Sam is one of the kids and doesn't touch icky things even in the best of times. Fortunately Annika really got into it--she was kind of scarily excited about it:
Anyway, we got the requisite mummification supplies: dead pharaoh (chicken), and lots of salt, baking powder and baking soda. A friend supplied us with purple gloves which added an air of whimsy to the proceedings.

| Harry and Not-Sam. Sam was in the other room trying to stay as far away as possible. They were drying out the chicken. |

| The end result. I promise that there is a chicken in there somewhere. |
Oh, and in case you hadn't hear, mummification Rocks! At least for some of us.
