Will Dan Reeder's dragon-making techniques work for my veggie-stealing goblins?
I've been thinking about this thieving goblin family for years, but every time I think about making them, the number of goblins gets bigger. That might be one reason why I keep putting this project off. The other reason is simply because I hadn't thought of a good way to make them - and I still need some suggestions from you before I get started. I'm hoping that it will be possible to make two-legged goblins with his wood glue mache, but if you have some ideas about making them stand up - and an easy way for old hands to tear up the sheets, please let me know.

Crustless Pumpkin Pie recipe: littlesunnykitchen.com/crustless-pumpkin-pie
(I used brown sugar instead of white sugar, cream instead of the evaporated milk, and one quart of drained pressure-canned butternut squash instead of the pumpkin. I added another egg, too - because my chickens keep laying whether I want them to or not. The pie tastes even better if you make it a day ahead and put it in the fridge overnight.

![Self-Published Authors - Has Your Book Been Stolen? [Pirated Books On Amazon]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/ugSa5BdII3o/mqdefault.jpg "Self-Published Authors - Has Your Book Been Stolen? [Pirated Books On Amazon]
Yes, its true - there are a lot of pirated books on Amazon.com. The copyright infringement form can be found here: https://www.amazon.com/report/infringement
The form asks if you bought the stolen work to make sure its a pirated work, and I did that the first time. But since then I just say I didnt buy it, because you can tell that its stolen content by using their search inside the book feature.
And they do take the stolen books off their site within a few days of receiving the form. Unfortunately, the bad guys will just put it back on Amazon in a week or two, so you have to keep checking, and filling out the form.
In case youd like to know what the covers of my actual, real books look like, here are the links to them on amazon:
