sugar

Amezaiku is the Japanese art of shaping sugar into edible works of art reminiscent of blown glass. Incredible! I think I have a new obsession!

Who knew rainbows were so fast? Must be all that sugar.

I don't often say this, but you've got to check out this etsy seller's entire site. The amazing variety of things made of sugar are staggering! Click the link under the photo and get to drooling. Then come back and tell me how much you love it!

I'm not sure I'd want to give a pack of kids handfuls of straight sugar as a snack but I could see these set out for coffee with the ladies.

Kitty is such a fashion maven, she made sure that the candy matches the ring. It would just be a tacky snack if it clashed.

Panna cotta is like super rich, fancy grown up pudding and it is ridiculously delicious and versatile. I could eat panna cotta with every meal and not complain. Though with that much cream I would no doubt come to regret it. And oh the rainbow of possibility!

Remember making rock candy as a kid? It was like magic! Making candy from nothing but sugar and water! Of course we did it on strings and never had any flavors or flavors. This is some fancy craft time right here. I think I need to get back to doing simple crafts like this, so fun!

This look 1almost as velvety and juicy as a real peach

You know what, birds? It's about time you perk up and realize that the world isn't out to get you. Maybe give up on the egg rescue mission. Enjoy what you've got, you're really bringing me down.

As distressing as it may be to have a sunken kitty in your drink, those toe beans sure are sweet!

I like a motif that combines snow with the color pink. It reminds me of a sunset on a snowy day when the vibrant sky reflects off the perfect whiteness. Throwing a couple penguins in there just ups the awesome factor.

I'm not the girliest girl who ever girled but I love having girly get togethers with my other ladies where we drink champagne and dish about boys and watch movies and eat ridiculous girly snacks like pink dipped strawberries. I think it's high time for another girl day!

Once upon a time, sugar came in cubes or not cubes, brown or white. Now there are wondrous selections of accoutrements for your tea or coffee. Enough to suit any sweet tooth! It really is a wonderful world.

I'm glad to see at least three pieces of real fruit on this sugar-bomb. Sprinkles, marshmallows, candy... I'm getting jittery just looking at it.

You don't look especially intelligent sucking on the buttons on your cardigan but I try not to judge.
