The basket was done in royal icing as this is a dummy cake. Grapes, plums, cherry tomatoes, garlic, cucumber, tablecloth and peppers are all made from fondant. The apple, peach, potatoes, corn, and carrots are formed rice krispy treats and then covered with fondant. Basket handle is made from gum paste. The filler 'straw' packing material is made from fondant that I forced through an extruder. It looked like whole wheat spaghetti until it dried and I broke it up into smaller pieces. I also used some of the faux straw for the end of the garlic. The wood for the table top was 5 different colors of fondant (white, tan, yellow, pumpkin orange and black) that I rolled into long ropes and then rolled it out and stained it with Ever-clear and chocolate brown petal dust. Everything was shaded with petal dust.

You guys did take over my page! That's okay, I've done that on your pages too. lol June, we actually had temperatures up in the 80s today!! All my windows were wide open. Sandra, does Benny realize what a road trip that would be??? Goreti and Gail and June are all way up north, and I am midwest, Katy, Martin, and Tracy all in England....You planning on winning the lottery, woman?

Ha Ha Sandra

We have taken over Linda's page!!!!  Road trip to Canada.... it's freezing here.. and in Iowa where Linda is too..... not like sunny Florida!! We haven't been to Florida for a couple of years. Be great to go again and "drop In" on you :o)  As far as Britain, we plan to go over, but don't know how I could squeeze visits to all my friends AND see all the sights. Would love to go for a month so I could fit in everything in!!!!!

Ohhh yessss, this is my comfort zone. I feel loved here, and you know how much care about all of you. So much that my husband asked me "how would you like to make a road trip and visit your friends? Then I said, all the way to Canada? He said, yes I know June is there. (Bless his heart) then I said, but the road trip will not take me to the United Kingdom...I have Katy, Tracy and Martin...then he laughed and said, now you are asking too much...jijijijijij He wants to take me to see Linda. I love him for just saying that to me. And we have taken over Linda's page....lol
