Wordle

Thanks to Joanna at Zeb Bakes, I've found a new pastime on the computer - making word clouds at Wordle. The picture above is what I made when I put in my blog address, and played around with the settings to get something aesthetically pleasing. I like the way the whole cloud stands on a chocolate stem - it sums up my baking philosophy, I think!

The picture below is from words associated with chocolate cake:

It took a while to find out how to publish them here. Long story short - screen capture, save in Paint Shop Pro, crop off unwanted bits, convert to a .jpg file.

  7. Celia - I was lying in bed last night thinking of related groups of words, instead of thinking about food (my usual way of relaxing, instead of counting sheep)! LOL!
