>>> THIS TIME ON “BROAD & HIGH” -- A CHOREOGRAPHER WHO TRIED TO CAPTURE THE EMOTIONS OF THE PANDEMIC.

>> PART OF MY PRACTICE AS AN ARTIST WAS TO DO SOMETHING OUT OF THIS TIME THAT FELT SO CONFUSING.

>> AN ARTIST WHO USES ELECTRICITY TO BURN WOOD.

A QUICK BITE RECIPE FROM AN OLD FRIEND.

>> WE GO WAY BACK.

>> AND SOME REGGAE MUSIC TO WELCOME SPRING.

THIS AND MORE, RIGHT NOW ON “BROAD & HIGH.” ♪♪ ♪♪ >>> HI EVERYONE.

WELCOME TO “BROAD & HIGH.” I'M YOUR HOST KATE QUICKEL.

ARTISTS ALL OVER COLUMBUS HAVE BEEN BUSY DURING THE PANDEMIC TRYING TO CAPTURE OUR SHARED EXPERIENCES OF ISOLATION AND WORRY.

PLUS UNEXPECTED EMOTIONS LIKE RUNAWAY ASTONISHMENT AND EVEN MOMENTS OF QUIET GRATITUDE.

OUR FIRST STORY IS OSU DANCE PROFESSOR SUSAN VAN PELT PETRY, WHO LOOKED AT COVID-19 AS AN INSPIRATION TO MAKE 19 DIFFERENT DANCES.

>>> WELL, WE WERE DOING OUR LAST TRAVEL THAT I CAN REMEMBER IN MARCH.

SPRING BREAK DOWN TO WILMINGTON, NORTH CAROLINA.

AND ALL THIS WAS STARTING TO IMPLODE.

AND ON THE WAY BACK, KIND OF THE NEWS CAME OUT THAT ALL THE STUDENTS HAD TO STAY HOME, GO HOME.

THAT WE WERE GONNA TEACH FROM SCHOOL, FROM HOME, ETC.

SO, THAT ALL WAS OVERWHELMING AND I THINK DISORIENTING FOR EVERYBODY.

AND PART OF MY PRACTICE AS AN ARTIST, I THINK MY INSTINCT AT THAT POINT WAS TO MAKE LEMONADE.

RIGHT?

TO DO SOMETHING OUT OF THIS TIME THAT FELT SO CONFUSING AND UNPRECEDENTED.

THE MOST USED WORD OF 2020.

SO, I SAT DOWN AND THE WORD COVID-19 WAS EVERYWHERE.

SO, I DECIDED TO MAKE 19 VIDEOS.

IT MEANT 19 PIECES.

AND JUST TRIED TO MAKE SOMETHING OF THIS TIME.

WELL, RIGHT AWAY IN MY 19 CHOREOVIDS NOTEBOOK WHICH THIS IS, I WROTE -- I BRAINSTORMED A LIST OF 19 POSSIBLE TOPICS OR THEMES.

AND, YOU KNOW, IT WAS PRETTY EASY TO QUICKLY SAY, OKAY, DEFINITELY THERE'S A THEME OF ISOLATION.

THERE'S A THEME OF BEING ON ZOOM.

THERE'S A THEME OF NOT BEING ABLE TO TOUCH.

THERE'S A THEME OF THE SOCIAL DISTANCING.

SO, I CAME UP WITH A NUMBER OF DIFFERENT -- ACTUALLY, I BRAINSTORMED 18 WAS MY INITIAL LIST.

BUT, I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE 19TH WILL BE, BUT I'LL GET THERE.

AND I GRADUALLY WORKED THROUGH THEM NOT IN THAT SEQUENCE.

I DID WHAT SORT OF POPPED UP FIRST.

THE VERY FIRST ONE WAS DEALING WITH ZOOM.

THIS WAS 12 BOXES THAT WE CREATED FOR ZOOM.

AND FOR EXAMPLE, THIS IS THE COMBINATION OF IMPROVE AND STRUCTURE THAT YOU HAVE TO DO.

I IMPROVISED A LOT OF THEM, BUT I HAD TO HAVE A STRUCTURE.

SO, I WANTED A VARIETY DYNAMICS.

AND MY HUSBAND RICK HELPED A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT WITH THIS ONE.

SO, I'VE SIMPLY RECORDED MYSELF ON ZOOM IN A LITTLE TINY CORNER OF MY UPSTAIRS STUDIO OFFICE.

AND SO I'M IN THIS LITTLE TINY BOX AND YOU SEE THIS FIGURE TRYING TO GET OUT.

I DID 12 VERSIONS OF THAT.

AND THEN HE CREATED A GRID TO LOOK LIKE A ZOOM MEETING.

>> FIND YOUR CORNERS.

FIND YOUR CORNERS.

FIND YOUR EDGES.

AND ABOVE ALL -- FIND YOUR DIAGONALS.

THE DIAGONAL.

THERE'S THE X, THE Y, AND THE Z AXIS.

IT'S THE MOST DYNAMIC LINE.

>> AND THEN I MOVED ON THROUGH A NUMBER OF OTHER ONES.

SOME ARE FUNNY, AMUSING, HUMOROUS.

>> PEOPLE, PEOPLE.

ENOUGH WITH THE BAD ANGLES.

ENOUGH WITH THE CHIN.

>> SOME ARE MUCH MORE SERIOUS.

I JUST FINISHED ONE THAT I FILMED ACTUALLY DOWNTOWN IN FRONT OF AND WITH NATIONAL GUARD AND STATE PATROL BEHIND ME.

I WAS PETRIFIED THAT THEY WOULD KICK ME OUT.

AND IT'S CALLED PLEDGE AND IT'S VERY MUCH MY MARTIN LUTHER KING DAY OFFERING, INAUGURATION WEEK OFFERING.

IT'S MORE PERSONAL REACTION TO POLITICS AND STRUGGLES THAT WE ARE FEELING.

♪♪ ♪♪ THEY'VE ALL BEEN RECORDED IN ONE TAKE.

THAT HAS BECOME A RULE.

SO, THERE'S NO INTERNAL EDITS ON ANY OF THEM.

I'M NOT A FILMMAKER.

I DON'T PRETEND TO BE MAKING HIGH ART FILM.

BUT, THEY ARE BECAUSE OF COVID, THEY ARE PERFORMANCES THAT YOU CAN ONLY SEE ON THE VIDEO.

BY KEEPING THEM IN ONE TAKE, IT FELT LIKE KEEPING EACH ONE FOCUSED ON A SINGLE IDEA AND NOT GET CARRIED AWAY WITH FILMOGRAPHY.

♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ I DECIDED EARLY ON TO DO SOMETHING WITH SOCIAL DISTANCING AND A LITTLE PLAY ON THE WORD SOCIAL DISTANCING.

IF YOU WRITE OUT DISTANCING, YOU WRITE D-I-S-T, ETC.

YOU TAKE AWAY THE I-S-T, IT BECOMES DANCING.

SO, SOCIAL DANCING.

SO, THAT'S THE LITTLE PLAY THERE.

AND THEN I THOUGHT WHAT IF I COULD GET A SKIRT THAT'S A 12 FOOT DIAMETER.

ANYBODY AROUND ME IS SIX FEET.

AND THEN I JUST IMAGINED I WOULD BE DANCING SOMEHOW, REACHING OUT TO PEOPLE, BUT NEVER ABLE TO TOUCH THEM BECAUSE WE'RE KEEPING SIX FEET AND HOW SAD THAT IS.

♪♪ ♪♪ I GOT A TRAMPOLINE HOOP THAT IS DESIGNED TO HOLD UP A SCREEN AROUND A TRAMPOLINE.

SO, IT'S EXACTLY 12 FEET DIAMETER.

AND I CONSTRUCTING THE MATERIAL CAME FROM, WE USED TO BLUE APRON.

AND BLUE APRON FOOD ALWAYS CAME IN THESE THERMOS CASES.

AND I JUST THOUGHT THE MATERIAL WAS COOL AND I SAVED IT THINKING I WOULD DO SOMETHING WITH IT SOME DAY.

YOU KNOW THIS IS MORE WIND THAN YESTERDAY.

WHEN IT COMES UP THE HILL AND CATCHES THAT END.

>> IT'S A METAPHOR FOR THE YEAR OF COMPLAINT.

>> YEAH.

WHEN WE DO THIS FOR REAL, YOUR HANDS WILL JUST BE DOWN BY YOUR SIDES.

COMFORTABLE.

AND WHEN I GO LIKE THIS, YOU'LL REACH.

>> WAS THINKING I'D JUST HAVE ONE FELLOW PARTNER OR NOT PARTNER.

BUT, NOW I'VE DECIDED TO HAVE A WHOLE BUNCH OF PEOPLE AND I WILL DANCE BETWEEN THEM.

WE'LL SEE.

WE'LL SEE.

♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ >> I THINK YOU COULD LOOK AT EVERY SINGLE CHOREOVID AND YOU WOULD GET SOMETHING ABOUT THIS LONG, LONG WAIT THAT WE'RE ALL IN.

KIND OF LIKE THIS BIG HOLD YOUR BREATH MOMENT.

A YEAR, YEAR AND A HALF, TWO YEARS LONG.

I THINK IT SHOWS UP IN EVERY SINGLE LITTLE PIECE.

JUST CAN'T GET AWAY FROM IT.

♪♪ ♪♪ I AM VERY EMPATHETIC AND I HAVE FELT VERY ALARMED AND SAD FOR THE PEOPLE WHO ARE LESS FORTUNATE THAN I. I MEAN, I HAVE A JOB.

I HAVE A HOUSE.

I MEAN, WE'RE FINE.

YOU KNOW?

EVERYTHING IS AS GOOD AS IT GETS.

BUT, THE NUMBERS OF PEOPLE IN THIS WORLD AND COUNTRY WHO ARE OUT OF WORK, UNABLE TO CONNECT AT ALL.

MAYBE THEY'RE COMPLETELY ALONE.

THE SADNESS OF THAT REALLY WEIGHS ON ME.

♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ 19 IS A LOT OF PIECES TO MAKE, AND SO YOU HAVE TO CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR.

IT WAS, YOU KNOW, THE NUMBER BECAUSE OF COVID-19.

THAT'S THE NAME OF IT FROM 2019.

SO, I GOT THE BIT BETWEEN MY TEETH TO MAKE SURE IT ACTUALLY HAPPENS.

WE ARE CREATING AN INCREDIBLE ARCHIVE OF THIS TIME IN HISTORY.

I THINK HISTORIANS WILL LOOK BACK AND LOOK AT ARTISTS' WORK AS A WAY TO UNDERSTAND WHAT WAS GOING ON, BEYOND THE FACTS AND FIGURES.

BUT WHAT WERE PEOPLE FEELING?

WHAT WAS THE EXPERIENCE?

WHAT WERE WE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT ABOUT HUMAN NATURE?

AND WHAT SILVER LININGS WERE WE FINDING?

OH, THAT'S A SLIGHT PUN ON THE SKIRT.

WE'VE BEEN JOKING ABOUT ALL THE SILVER LININGS.

THAT THERE ARE SOME.

I THINK EVERYONE COULD NAME A FEW.

THAT THIS TIME HAS GIVEN US, A SILVER LINING.

SO THE SKIRT KIND OF HAS A LITTLE NOD IN THAT DIRECTION TOO.

♪♪ >>> SEE ALL 19 DANCES AT THAT SUSAN VAN PELT PETRY CREATED ONLINE AT OSU'S URBAN ART SPACE.

PICK OUT A FAVORITE OR TWO AND SHOUT IT OUT ON OUR FACEBOOK PAGE.

>>> OUR NEXT ARTIST COMES FROM RENO, NEVADA.

BEN RODGERS USES WOOD AS A CANVAS FOR HIS PRINTS.

BUT, HERE COMES THE FUN PART.

HE FIRST BURNS THE WOOD BY PUSHING ELECTRIC CURRENT THROUGH IT.

THE RESULT LOOKS LIKE MINIATURE LIGHTNING STRIKES AND GIVES HIS WORK A TRULY RUSTIC FEEL.

APPARENTLY, IT SMELLS PRETTY GOOD TOO.

CHECK IT OUT.

♪♪ >>> I WOULD DESCRIBE MY WORK AS TAKING A PIECE OF WOOD WITH THE NATRUAL WOOD GRAIN, THE NATURAL FEEL, THE SMELL OF THE WOOD, AND BURNING IT WITH FIRE.

THEN TAKING IMAGERY AND APPLYING IT RIGHT OVER THE TOP OF THE WOOD.

LIKE PAINTING ONTO A WOODEN CANVAS.

MY NAME IS BEN RODGERS AND I CREATE BURNED WOOD PRINTS.

♪♪ ♪♪ I'LL CHOOSE MAPLE PLYWOOD BECAUSE IT'S VERY STRONG AND IT'S VERY FLAT.

AND TAKE THAT PIECE, CUT DOWN IN MY WORKSHOP, AND THEN I'LL GROUTER THE EDGES.

[ TOOL WHIRRING ] AND THEN I'LL FLAME THE EDGES.

SO, I TAKE A TORCH AND ACTUALLY BURN AROUND THE PIECE.

AND THEN I'LL TAKE A BIT OF WATER AND BAKING SODA SOLUTION AND SPREAD THAT OVER THE TOP TO HELP THE ELECTRICITY CONDUCT.

AND IT ALSO HELPS IT STAY ON SURFACE OF THE WOOD RATHER THAN GOING THROUGH THE MIDDLE.

THE NEXT STAGE IS TO BURN IT WITH ELECTRICITY.

THE PROCESS OF ELECTROCUTING THE WOOD IS PRETTY AMAZING.

SO, I HAVE A MACHINE THAT I CREATED IN MY WORKSHOP.

AND I'LL TAKE THAT AND RUN AN ELECTRIC CURRENT THROUGH THE WOOD WHICH TRAVELS ALONG THE SURFACE OF THE WOOD, BURNING NATURAL SHAPES INTO IT.

PEOPLE CALL IT FRACTALS, OR TREE LIMBS, OR LIGHTNING.

ALL REMINISCENT OF WHAT THESE BURN MARKS IN THE WOOD LOOK LIKE.

NO TWO ARE ALIKE, THOSE FRACTAL SHAPES.

THEY'RE TOTALLY UNIQUE JUST LIKE NATURE.

JUST LIKE A TREE BRANCH.

OR LIGHTNING.

THEY CAN NEVER BE REPRODUCED.

SAND EVERYTHING DOWN SO ITS NICE AND SMOOTH AND LOOKS REALLY CRISP.

AND THEN RUN IT THROUGH A BIG FLAT BED PRINTER.

AND THAT PUTS INK DIRECTLY ON TO THE WOOD, CREATING THE IMAGERY THAT IS THE FINAL PIECE.

DURING THE PRINTING PROCESS, I'LL TAKE AN IMAGE INTO PHOTOSHOP AND I'LL TAKE A PHOTOGRAPH OF THE WOOD AND OVERLAY IT IN PHOTOSHOP SO THAT I CAN SEE THAT TAN CANVAS.

BECAUSE BASICALLY I'M STARTING WITH WOOD INSTEAD OF WHITE LIKE YOU WOULD ON PAPER.

IN RECENT YEARS, WHAT'S ALSO HELPED IS A PRINTER THAT HAS THE CAPABILITY TO LAY DOWN WHITE INK.

AND SO, AS THE PRINTS MOVE THROUGH, A LAYER OF WHITE GOES DOWN FIRST BEFORE THE COLOR IS APPLIED OVER THE TOP.

AND THIS ALLOWS THE COLORS TO REALLY EXPLODE ON THE WOOD CANVAS.

♪♪ ♪♪ GROWING UP IN LAKE TAHOE, I'VE GOT A TON OF TAHOE IMAGERY.

AND I USE A COMBINATION OF MY OWN IMAGERY, BUT A LOT OF STOCK IMAGERY.

A LOT OF TREES, BEARS, TAHOE MOUNTAINS, AND CHAIRLIFTS, SKI RESORTS.

STUFF LIKE THAT.

I LOVE CREATING CUSTOM ONES.

PEOPLE LOVE TO HAVE THEIR OWN UNIQUE PICTURE.

YOU KNOW, THAT FAMILY PHOTO AND HAVING IT IN A UNIQUE CANVAS THAT I CAN CREATE.

♪♪ ♪♪ ONE THING THAT STANDS OUT THAT SURPRISES PEOPLE IS WHEN THEY PICK UP A PIECE OF MY ART, OFTEN TIMES THEY'LL SMELL IT.

AND IT SMELLS LIKE BURNED WOOD.

IT SMELLS LIKE IF THEY'VE EVER BEEN IN TAHOE IN THE WINTER TIME AND THEY'VE HAD A FIRE IN THE FIREPLACE.

IT SMELLS LIKE HOME.

IT SMELLS, YOU KNOW, LIKE A CAMP FIRE FROM THEIR CHILDHOOD OR SOMETHING.

SO, THAT'S KIND OF A UNIQUE SIDE EFFECT.

MY FAVORITE PART OF THE WHOLE PROCESS IS GIVING PIECES TO PEOPLE AND WATCHING THEIR EYES LIGHT UP WHEN YOU SHOW THEM -- YOU HOLD IT UP AND THEY GO WOW.

THE UNIQUENESS OF THE ART DRIVES ME.

AND I GET POSITIVE REACTIONS WHEREVER I GO.

AND IT REALLY FUELS MY DESIRE TO KEEP GOING AND ALL THE POSITIVITY THAT SURROUNDS IT.

♪♪ ♪♪ >>> KEEP UP WITH BEN RODGERS ON HIS FACEBOOK PAGE.

AND IF THIS STORY MADE YOU A LITTLE NOSTALGIC FOR THOSE WOOD BURNING KITS BACK IN THE 1970s, WE FOUND A TON OF HITS OFF GOOGLE.

ENJOY.

>>> WE'RE BACK WITH ANOTHER INSTALLMENT OF “KATE'S QUICK BITES.” IN THIS SEGMENT, WE'RE WHIPPING UP A HEALTHY HOMEMADE VERSION OF A FRUIT ROLLUP.

ALSO CALLED FRUIT LEATHER.

THIS RECIPE WAS PROVIDED BY NANNETTE MACIEJUNES, THE COLUMBUS MUSEUM OF ART.

AND ALSO, AN OLD FRIEND OF MINE.

RECENTLY WE RECONNECTED TO DISCUSS THIS DELICIOUS TREAT.

♪♪ >>> I'M CUTTING THE TOPS OFF THE STRAWBS AND CUTTING THEM IN HALF.

NANN, GOTTA PUT IN THE BUDGET MANICURE MONEY FOR KATE.

IT'S OKAY.

SO, WE'RE GONNA MAKE FRUIT LEATHER TODAY.

THIS RECIPE WAS SUBMITTED BY NANNETTE MACIEJUNES, THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF THE COLUMBUS MUSEUM OF ART.

FUN FACT, NANNETTE WAS MY GIRL SCOUT TROOP LEADER WHEN I WAS A KID.

I'VE KNOWN HER FOR QUITE A LONG TIME.

SO, THIS IS KIND OF SPECIAL TO BE MAKING A RECIPE OF HERS.

>>> HI NANNETTE!

IT'S SO GOOD TO SEE YOU.

THANKS FOR JOINING ME AND FOR SHARING THIS RECIPE.

>> HI KATE!

IT'S GOOD TO SEE YOU.

>> THIS WAS SO FUN.

SO, I MEAN I'VE MENTIONED IT BEFORE.

IT'S LIKE MY CLAIM TO FAME.

I'VE KNOWN YOU FOR YEARS.

YOU WERE MY GIRL SCOUT TROOP LEADER WHEN I WAS A KID.

YOUR DAUGHTER AND I HAVE BEEN FRIENDS FOR AGES.

WE GO WAY BACK.

>> WE GO WAY BACK.

WE DO.

BACK TO GIRL SCOUTS.

>> AND SO THIS FRUIT LEATHER RECIPE WHICH WAS SO MUCH FUN TO MAKE IS OBVIOUSLY SOMETHING, YOU KNOW, A GIRL SCOUT COULD ENJOY OR BE A PART OF.

BUT, THAT'S NOT WHERE IT CAME FROM, RIGHT?

IT'S NOT WHERE YOU GOT THE RECIPE.

>> IT DID NOT.

SO, WHEN I ASKED ME TO CONTRIBUTE, I PANICKED IMMEDIATELY.

RAN TO THE MUSEUM'S CAFÉ.

“SCHOKKO” IS THE NAME OF OUR CAFÉ.

NAMED AFTER ONE OF THE PAINTINGS IN THE COLLECTION.

AND I IMMEDIATELY FOUND CHEF, OUR CHEF LAURA RIDGE BENNETT.

SAID CHEF, WHAT SHOULD I DO?

AND SHE'S LIKE OKAY, LET ME THINK ABOUT IT.

LET ME THINK.

AND SHE CAME BACK WITH FRUIT LEATHER AS A SNACK THAT SHE JUST LOVED.

AND SO I SAID GREAT, THAT'S WHAT WE'LL DO BECAUSE NANNETTE DOESN'T COOK.

>> I'M LOOKING AT THE RECIPE.

LIKE I SAID, YOU ONLY NEED TWO INGREDIENTS.

SO, YOU NEED TWO PINTS OF STRAWBERRIES WE'VE I'VE ALREADY CUT UP.

JUST KIND OF CUT THE TOPS OFF AND CUT THEM IN HALF.

AND WE'RE GONNA NEED A QUARTER CUP OF HONEY.

THAT'S THE RECIPE.

SO, PRETTY SIMPLE.

SO, ONCE YOU GOT EVERYTHING CUT UP, WE'RE GONNA PUT IT INTO A BLENDER OR FOOD PROCESSOR.

WE'VE GOT OUR QUARTER CUP OF HONEY.

BLITZ IT UP WITH THE HONEY.

>> OH, IT SMELLS SO FRESH.

>> WE'RE GONNA SPREAD THE BLENDED BERRY MIXTURE ONTO OUR SHEET PAN.

IT'S PRETTY WELL SPREAD OUT.

AND THEN YOU LEAVE IT IN THE OVEN FOR LIKE SIX HOURS.

SO, YOU KNOW, IT'S KIND OF LIKE A WALK AWAY, GO DO SOMETHING ELSE KIND OF RECIPE.

AND THEN WE'LL SEE HOW IT WORKS.

>> IF YOU'RE PERSON WHO DOESN'T LIKE TO COOK, THIS KIND OF IS THE RECIPE FOR YOU.

BECAUSE IT'S LIKE TWO INGREDIENTS AND WALK AWAY FROM THE OVEN.

>> EXACTLY.

LAURA WAS PROBABLY THINKING OF THAT WHEN SHE SUGGESTED IT TO ME.

THIS IS AT LEAST BELIEVABLE THAT I MIGHT BE ABLE TO FIX THIS.

>> RIGHT.

I LOVE SIMPLE IT IS.

>> SOMETIMES REALLY GREAT FOOD DOESN'T HAVE TO BE REALLY COMPLICATED.

SOMETIMES IT DOES, YOU KNOW?

>> SO, NOT ONLY IS THIS RECIPE SO EASY TO MAKE, BUT IT SOUNDS LIKE IT'S PRETTY VERSITILE.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO USE STRAWBERRIES LIKE WE DID.

YOU CAN USE ANY KIND OF FRUIT, RIGHT?

>> EXACTLY.

THAT'S WHAT LAURA SAID.

SHE SAID IT'S SOMETHING THAT YOU CAN, YOU KNOW, YOU CAN BE CREATIVE.

TRY YOUR FAVORITE FRUIT.

STRAWBERRIES HAVE TO BE MY FAVORITE FRUIT, SO ONE OF MY FAVORITE FRUITS FOR FRUIT LEATHER.

BUT, IT IS SOMETHING CHANGE IT UP TO BE SOMETHING YOU LIKE BEST.

>> OKAY, OUR STRAWBERRY FRUIT LEATHER HAS BEEN IN THE OVEN FOR ABOUT SIX HOURS.

IT'S COOL ENOUGH NOW WHERE I CAN HANDLE IT.

SO, YOU CAN KIND OF DO WHAT YOU WANT HERE.

YOU CAN EITHER TRY TO PEEL YOUR WHOLE FRUIT LEATHER OFF OF THE PARCHMENT PAPER.

OR, YOU COULD CUT IT INTO STRIPES, AND ROLL THOSE UP, AND HAVE THOSE BE KIND OF YOUR “OH HEY, I NEED SOME FRUIT LEATHER.

I'M GONNA PEEL IT OPEN.” SO, I'M JUST GONNA GO AHEAD AND CUT SOME WITH THE PARCHMENT STILL ON, AND THEN PEEL SOME OFF, AND GIVE IT A TASTE.

SO, YOU CAN SEE HOW IT'S TOTALLY -- LOOK AT THAT.

THAT'S SO COOL.

LIKE, THIS IS JUST STRAWBERRIES AND HONEY AND NOW IT'S FRUIT LEATHER!

♪♪ ♪♪ LOOK AT THAT!

THAT'S AMAZING!

STRAWBERRY FRUIT LEATHER.

OH MY GOSH.
