My Repurposed Life™: How to make a gazing ball out of a bowling ball

I have a bowling ball gazing ball that my Little Man and I made covered in pennies and left to tarnish, it gives a depth not achieved if covered with the poly. I have a couple more old bowling balls that I’ve been saving to do something with, think I just found it. Thank you Homestead Survival for sharing this link. Thank you My Repurposed Life for posting!

Two Ingredient Beer Bread


The best and easiest loaf of bread I ever made, and yes, only 2 ingredients. 

2 and 2/3 cups of self rising flour
12 oz beer
Mix (will more resemble a thick cake batter than bread dough)  and put in oven at 350 degrees and bake for 40 minutes. 

That's it, so easy and oh so wonderful. 
Any beer can be used, hot or cold, so long as you use 12 oz.
Experiment with add ins,,,, I have used pepper jack cheese, olives, asiago cheese, rosemary, garlic, tomatoes and basil. Try singularly or in combinations, create your own, 
Happy baking !
