A meatball sculpture, ‘eh? I’ll have to try that.

Ah yes, I remember it well!

Its in good company.

This one stares back.

this’ll keep Reggie occupied.

Hey, meatball sculptures can be world class…..

Claes Oldenburg’s Leaning Fork with Meatball and Spaghetti II, done in 1994, would set you back a few million, were it for sale.

Baxter had better get a good job if he wants you to get him that one.

Don’t let your meat loaf,,,,,!

My poor dog would be drowning in drool!

I love the look of longing in the dogs eyes.

I remember when it was called “Snakes and Ladders” (sigh, I know, I’m old AND politically incorrect)

That’s cruel…

UP! UP! AND AWAYYYYY!

If you want to give your toy poodle nightmares for life, let a paper cup blow by in the wind…..

I think I’m becoming skewed, I’m beginning to look forward to “Pictures by Essex”! Ess, you are one of a kind and for that we are grateful!

WTF!!! On top of a PIZZA!! Didn’t they know about spaghetti in Chicago in 1962???

luv it!

This would also work.

I remember “On Top of Spaghetti” and had toddlers running around back then (since marrying in 1959).

all the comments are such fun (and I’m surprised there are multiple sculptures of meat balls). If I wanted one I’d probably do it in plastic clay with the fork included on an armature, or try more realism with an oversized metal fork. All the art in my house (except the bedroom) has the theme of winged creatures. And even there, I have this one:

You are so funny – you are laugh out loud funny!!

I went looking for a “bunny and meatball” image, and all I got was recipes… : (
