| Cut a Bagel into Linked Rings |
I've been thinking about it ever since. I even dreamed about it last night.
So this morning I popped over to the nearest bakery to purchase some bagels that weren't pre-sliced. Then I set to work.
So, back to the drawing board. I realized my mistake. I thought I was to cut completely through from the outside of the bagel into the center hole to make the cuts. Then I realized that wouldn't make two rings, it made the bagel into the infinity symbol. So I started again. This time I marked all the cutting lines on both sides of the bagel.
So, how did YOU spend 2-1/2 hours on this cold Sunday morning?
