I got this from a magazine while waiting for Janet to cut my hair. The bones definitely need panties on them for this presentation... I have heard them referred to as hats and frills . When looking for them in Canada, the women in a culinary shop in Toronto loved me calling them panties, they had no name for them, but knew what I was talking about. Actually, they are very simple to make. Ingredients:
