Some time ago I ran across a NIB Peterson Original Sherlock Holmes and have been holding off. Very recently I made the mistake of opening a SP email and getting lured into buying a Junior Watson. Some more stuff kind of Dublin related to mess around with this morning so it seemed like a good time for first runs for these. The older one just needed a little bit of wiping and one wipe of sandpaper, the newer one needed more work, lol, about ten applications of warm water/scrunched paper towel pieces/good twisting and a then a little sandpaper (a black mess). Yes, the stain and/or coatings are probably okay to leave on, but less than 5 minutes each and pristine bowls (and no hidden flaws). Boswell's Honey Roast and Mac Baren Vanilla Roll Cake are up - I was going to go with a Scottish/English for these but just don't seem like a way to ease into the day. Posting both now so I can focus for the next couple of hours!
