I do like it better with a more substantial ribbon, and that color is wonderful. Great work by Bond.

Love the color on that one Terry. A beautiful conversion.

Thank you, buddy.

Thanks Stefan.

After reading your comment, I again read this great primer on the construction of the classic stiff felt. http://thehattedprofessor.bowershats.com/2010/07/?m=1

The D'orsay curl is one of my favorite things in all of hatdom. And the subtle variations from hat to hat are simply wonderful.

The elegant art deco look of the form makes it one of my favorites with which to mess around in photo shop. Just for self-indulgent giggles, here's this one from a couple of years ago (along with the original of the photo that provided the background).
Thanks, Jeff.

And yeah... the conditions on the lake were disturbingly beautiful and serene.

It took me a while to figure out that "leg" in your comment was likely an autocorrect mess-up of "lake". I spent a couple minutes racking my brain to figure out if a "leg" was a part of a hat that I had never heard of or forgotten.

Ha! You are absolutely correct! That one slipped right by me. Nice leg of lake there...

The thought of sausage baked into bread sounded too good, so I busted out some sourdough, went down to the store for some chorico, and several hours later, this.

One wouldn't think this would need to be slathered with butter, but it was so good when I did!
To be on topic, I wore a Borsalino while it was in the oven, but didn't take a pic.

What have I done... we (Portuguese) eat it plain and simple, no butter and the bread itself is smaller

I always put butter on fresh baked bread. Can't help myself.
This was just an experiment. The recipe will be refined, fine-tuned and tuned up. Most likely rolls next time.

Thanks Mike!

How was it?

It was pretty good.

That looks good too.

See what you started, Joao?

F. Witzleben Leipzig Melone probably sourced. To me a unique goldish brown color.

Another great hat, Steve. Could I bother you for some measurements? Crown and brim? I'm thinking of ordering a Derby and this looks about perfect to me.

 

[Frunobulax]

Happy Monday, all! Great weekend of hats, guys.

Whatever happened to @Celia? And the other young lady who's handle is slipping my mind right now.

At work under the Frunoberger...

And a brim up for Bob.

Have a great day, all.

Great hat, Jim. I've been wondering the same thing. The young lady who always took photos of her great eyes and the hat?
