I'm looking forward to learning lots and yes, you're right, I'm already hooked.....much to the delight of family and friends ;-)

My little figures are nothing in comparison to yours. Plus, your flowers are outstanding! What I'd really like to do, is just sit and watch you with your sugar veil and see what all you are doing with it. Maybe you will have to post a video some time!
