PICTURE POST!

Um...picture!

My godson at a minor league baseball game. The helmet was originally a bowl for Dippin' Dots!

I have an entire league's worth of those things from Dairy Queen sundaes... probably from the late 80s. Cool to see they are still around! (And still filled with ice cream!)


Here's me wearing a septopus (I ran out of yarn to make the 8th tentacle).

Indeed they are. Cooper did not understand what it was at first, and he tried to dump the Dippin' Dots in the garbage so that he could just have the hat.

What a grand chapeau!

It's Michael Jackson made of marzipan. Or here's a Princess Diana made of marzipan, if you prefer.

To make a long story short, we stumbled across a marzipan museum in Szentendre and found all sorts of bizarre and silly shit and took pictures of it.

i would totally eat her up.


You heard me!

i can't believe someone's never heard of marzipan...

I used to enjoy the little Marzipan fruits.

I see what you did there. Thank God I didn't post the display of marzipan sex toys.

I used to enjoy the little Marzipan fruits. Mmm... can't eat them anymore.

I prefer my fruits of the flesh and blood variety.

That's a riot! Poor little guy; but, clearly he's a quick learner.

He's young; he'll learn ..., with our gentle guidance.

^ I had never heard of it either. I just googled it and I still don't remember seeing anything like it.

 

[B.J.]

I've heard of it, just didn't know what it was or have ever encountered it. I think it's mostly a European thing.

Yeah, same here. I've heard of it, but I don't think I've ever encountered it in real life.

But... but... making your own marzipan goodies for x-mas is a MUST! -how can you people even LIVE without???

 

[RoJoHen]

Pretty easily.

WIN!!!

Add two wings and you can almost make Cthulhu hats! I'd buy that!

 

[trekkiedane]

Pretty easily.

If you don't know what marzipan is you don't know what easy living is!

 

[RoJoHen]

I'm gonna go ahead and just say that ignorance is bliss.

Hmmm... now that's an idea... ::grabs yarn:: I'll be back in a day or two...

 

[lurok]

Mmmm...Battenburg cake. I assumed marzipan might have been taken to US in European diaspora. But maybe like decent chocolate and cheese it didn't make much headway...

Favorite brand before had to give up...

 

[KJbushway]

Looks fancy.

So I got some loot from ThinkGeek. Among them a Minecraft Creeper t-shirt and a Blade Runner umbrella.

Little bit better of the umbrella:

And also, I couldn't resist this t-shirt with this on it:
