First one of the year and it's a blow-out. What can I turn this into, or how could I fix it? I'm open to all suggestions!

Put it in a smoker and have a wonderful pork loin. There doesn't appear to be anything special about the wood. If you try a repair, every time you look at it in the future, you will remember that time you didn't keep track of the bottom thickness and screwed up a bowl. Life is too short to spend time fixing a small oak bowl. If it was a burl, then maybe.
