Holiday fun at my parents' house! Here's a preview:
A marzapan carrot

My mom took a course in folk-art cooking, and one of the things she learned about was marzapan sculpting. She brought us a hunk of marzapan and this cool colored dye/dust stuff, and we made little mini-things. Things made include: a carrot, an apple, a fish, baby jesus, and piggies! (I made the piggies. there was some drama there, 'cause my piggie's head fell off at one point, and his snout and ears crumbled. This made me very sad. I needed to take a time-out.)

Anyway, happy holidays from my home to yours, and I hope you all get what you wanted for Christmas.
