Apparently they require a bit of the confectioner's art (including, I suspect, a jolt of artificial purple coloring), no matter what Martha sez.Brenda from Flatbushhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04028764394435321917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14731145.post-76408080456617297872009-06-09T17:12:31.084-04:002009-06-09T17:12:31.084-04:00Thanks - I enjoyed the photos.
