Butter? Barely knew her!

So I was inaccurate when I once said that all there was to do in the Midwest was crystal meth, mallwalking and underage sex. It seems I left out butter sculpting.

from the Des-Moines Register
The Iowa State Fair's new primary butter sculptor is Sarah Pratt, a 29-year-old school teacher from Norwalk who will create a figure of Iowa native and "Superman Returns" star Brandon Routh as Superman for the annual display.

"(Superman) will be standing upright, cape fluttering," said Pratt, who is in the process of transitioning into lead sculptor, after 15 years apprenticing for Norma "Duffy" Lyon, the fair's famed sculptor for more than 45 years. Lyon will continue to mentor Pratt. "With the weight of butter, it'd be hard to have him flying."
