Breads

I made a lot of bread baskets in the last couple of months, now I arranged a bigger selection into a bread counter. Everything is free so it would be really a good time playing with the parts.





And the great news...

I APPLIED FOR ARTISAN MEMBERSHIP OF IGMA!

I don't want to jinx my odds (and perhaps it's against the rules of the application) so I don't show you the miniatures I sent to be evaluated. I only add a little hint, they are my favorites, some bread, some fruit, some cake...
The evaluation will be May 3-4, so I have more than a month to sweat. The pack has already arrived safe and sound, at least I don't have to worry about the shipping. Of course I used all the insurance and tracking services available in Hungary. It was a small fortune, but I couldn't afford a belated or missing pack.
Please root for me!
And thanks for all your wonderful comments pushing me to take this step.

Easter eggs

In Hungary (and in most of the Central and Eastern European countries) there is a lovely Easter tradition, the egg painting. And these eggs ar not simple red or yellow ones but really detailed artwork. I mean, the real sized eggs... Mines are only lame tries, but I think I'm happy with the result in this scale.
If you are interested the real hungarian handpainted eggs search the web using the "hímes tojások" searching words.
