The model would just crumble if if it was solid sugar as it wouldn't be strong enough. <br /><br />I didn't ask about the Tudor Rose medalion he was working on, as that's supported by aterrylovehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04947171244009864742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7585872298905423391.post-42568913488627093102010-04-13T06:46:45.285+00:002010-04-13T06:46:45.285+00:00Not surprised you're ahead of me, mirrors woul...Not surprised you're ahead of me, mirrors would have been good, and simple and maintenance free, but with no option of "recording" if something "interesting" had happened.<br /><br />I'm lucky, and I can and do just come back when the crowds thin, but people on coach parties or with long drives, small kids in tow, or other time constraints can't always.<br /><br />terrylovehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04947171244009864742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7585872298905423391.post-6212628528264526392010-04-13T00:20:53.393+00:002010-04-13T00:20:53.393+00:00Elise,

I'll also have to think a bit harder about captions than my usual, off-the-cuff, efforts.<br /><br />I look forward see some of the new "edgy" stuff in May, although cooks cooking is kind of what you terrylovehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04947171244009864742noreply@blogger.com
