The Great Minnesota Get (fat)-Together!



Obama's birth certificate carefully rendered in seeds. Ah, culture! Too bad I only had my cell phone so you can't see the wonderful mung bean work on the seal.

I've never really looked at the seed art exhibit at the fair, but was very impressed by a portrait of Thelonious Monk done mostly in kidney beans and one man's self-portrait of himself, Nancy Reagan, Laura Bush, a monkey and a parrot. The arts are alive and well at the State Fair.
