Made during the years of the Great Vegetable Osirian frog figures, he just sort of popped up, but wasn't to become important unitl later. He is essentially a frogamorphic pile of crumbs who has somehow become animated. He is the patron of pastry shops and close friends with the Honey Sisters and FrogOsiris.

Like the BreadFrogs he enjoyed disguising himself as other creatures and doesn't mind being the center of attention even if that center is the center piece of a table of pastries that will soon be eaten. Rare pizza bagels form part of his attire.

Interestingly, the gods and movie stars of the FrogWorld are often depicted as actually eating foods. You will remember the frogs themselves do not eat but take their nourishment directly out of the air and utilize solar energy.

The movies that these characters made were not our idea of entertainment. They were more "how—to" or as in this case a morality play. In our terms best to stay out of New York, but if you're there for godsakes stay out of big parks.

BreadFrogs are always in the process. Never satisfied with just being a frogamorphic loaf of bread covered with poppyseeds, they are always trying to make themselves into something else. In this case, the breadfrog has gone a little futher afield and gotten into show business.

Still not satisfied, this breadfrog has decided to go into business for himself and at the same time enjoy his favorite sport which in the FrogWorld is not exactly what we would call baseball.

You know, sometimes a really great title comes along first or is so obvious that you just have to do something with it. This is one of those cases. It really is fun to make scoops of ice cream with an ice cream scoop dipped into a bag of clay.

And if it was funny once, then you might just want to do two of them. When I spent 9 months of the year in Canada and then 3 months in Davis using the university kilns, I would occassionally do a second piece of my most favorite ideas. It saved on shipping.

Still enjoying making scoops of ice cream, this time I even included a clay scoop!

This was the year when I was enjoying making all sorts of little packaged products and besides I love fruitcake, even if it has been used as a doorstop for several years.

Just before Thanksgiving Day 1976 I felt it necessary to have the breadfrog instructing his pigeons in how to properly make a pumpkin pie.

The breadfrog was always accompanied by pigeons, usually two or three, who ate the excess poppyseeds that were always popping out of his body like sweat out of pores. The breadfrog would become quite attached to his pigeons and while he was changing himself, he tried to make the changes instructional for his pigeons.
