Thanks, Sandy. I know the final result seems so smooth and easy but I promise you I can't count the times I've also felt like the worlds worst snapshooter.
Even with this one, it took me three evenings to get it right, my neck and schoulders were aching with bending over to hold the sheet above the spoons in the darn light-tent at a thousand different angles and the camera was killing my hand and arm holding it up. I swore so many times, I'm sure I'll never get anywhere near heaven... (must have a word with Enzo about that ;-)

I've got some shiny utensils I bought just for the Fork-Side challenge a year ago. I'll have to use them sometime. Thanks for the lengthy description that's gives us insight to amount of work put into it.
