....... or more accurately ...... ON with their heads ! ;o))
This is a wedding cake topper "work in progress" ....... I now have the hard bit to do ...... the heads and faces which I find very difficult. A Lorraine, I am not ! LOL
They are sitting on a 5" drum, so are quite small really which then makes modelling the faces more difficult ...... for me anyway ! There are still some more finishing touches to add and I think the photo angle must have foreshortened them a bit as the bride's body isn't really as dumpy looking or her groom quite so tubby !
I'll visit you all later ..... you can probably guess what I'll be doing for the rest of the day ! ;o))

Before the era of mass media the most cost effective way of gaining publicity for any event was to have a poster printed and paste it in a prominent position where people would see it. ( thanks to Wikipedia for photo of VW Cabriolet, 700 of which were built between 1949 and 1953, background photo is from timepix.uk ( no. 119 / 834 ) no location or date given but big house in the distance is identified as a Vicarage
Just felt like making some cupcakes today and this is what i ended up with. Well, i actually only made one like this and the rest were more boring...
Anyways, the flavor combo was fantastic! My mom said it was the best cupcake she'd ever had. Pretty good rating :)
The apple paste I made the other day is dried and ready to store in the fridge. It's delicious, but not quite the same as the fruit pastes we usually buy. Very good, though. This paste is sweeter and the Rutherford and Meyer has a more intense flavor. I think next time I'll use a very tart apple at the beginning of the season.
Here's the recipe. Two kilos of apples turned into about a one kilo of paste, give or take the bits I "had" to trim off for neatness (and eat). The little 4 oz. tubs we buy are $5 each, so I turned a couple of dollars worth of apples into about $40 worth of apple paste. Hooray!
Next up, pear paste, because if there's one thing I like more than cheddar with apple paste, it's blue cheese with pear paste!

Man... I woke up this morning, and everything was white again: 10 cm snow.
Just as Christmas vacation is over. :-(
Old School Cut & Paste (Scissors & Glue) collage created for the weekly themed blog:
The Kollage Kit
This week the theme is ANYTHING GOES.
Here is a collage I made some time ago.
I married a photograph of a b&w landscape with a piece of starry sky scrapbooking paper. The bears on the ground are from a children's book and I cannot remember where the bear in the sky is from.
