I WANT TO EAT YOU TOTORO

ingredients:

fondant,food colouring (1 colour is enough, but if you want, also use black for the nose and pupils)
filling (anything firm–marzipan, nut paste, ganache, fudge, even peanut butter mixed with confectioner’s sugar, or a marshmallow)

1. tint one big walnut chunk sized hunk of fondant any colour you want. knead until smooth and pliable. knead a smaller fat nut sized ball of white fondant. the fondant is easy to work with (like that play dough stuff) and pieces will stick to each other with little effort
2. shape coloured chunk into a rough egg or strawberry shape. you can also wrap it around a small ball of filling. roll a bit of the coloured chunk into a fat rope and cut into four pieces at a diagonal. roll out two little balls of white, and and even littler ball. flatten out a bit of the white fondant into an oval-shape that is larger on one end.
3. stick two of the rope pieces on the top of the coloured egg piece for ears, two on the sides for arms. smooth the white oval about halfway down the coloured egg shape and fold the rest underneath. flatten out the two bigger white balls and place on either side of the smaller white ball for a face.
4. use a toothpick dipped in dark food colouring to colour in the nose bit, add pupils, mouth, and um, totoro chest hair.
I found this major recipe at http://scentofgreenbananas.blogspot.com/2005/03/totoro-tutorial.html

Because in the end what i want to do is cupcakes like this:

ANTWERP IS BURNING, LITERALLY

We never know what we have till we lose it…. For many of you in Japan that studied or that visited your friends in ANTWERP,might remember the Club call Cafe Capital at the city park. Last night “aparently” a freak set fire an burned the club down.Police found traces of gasoline in the area…I just read….

How many of you remember the last Fanklub parties there or Blast your Ghetto?
How many of you have your photo take there?
How many of you only when out to party when Erwin and Pascal where playing?
How have happy memories from partying there?


I really feel sad…………… My last photo there back in January.

Narelle Dore / Ra shop

Australian designer Narelle Dore hosted an intimate presentation of her autumn winter 2010-11 collection as an afternoon tea in the back garden and atrium of ra. her capsule of twenty handmade pieces was based on a series of pinhole camera photos narelle made at the salt lakes near her hometown of Perth in Australia.

“the way the film captured the sunlight and harsh environment with an unfocused softness inspired the use of linens, suede, sanded silks and lasercut/burnt leather. i wanted to translate sun rays like amulets, to be incorporated into the cuts and textile effects.”

INSIDE the ANDES

Yesterday we went to visit the land my cousin just bought ,we drove for 20 min up the mountain  and found this amazing forest were my brother would make his dream house.
Honestly i would just have a tent , make a fire ,eat hotdogs and marshmallows ,maybe mushrooms and be forever there ....The naure there is totally virgin and wild,just thinking about bricks and workers over there make me feel sad.
I loved the view over the Bogota valley  and the wild berries everywere.
i didnt like that was even more cold than the city and humed like the jungle,maybe i am just to use now to all the pollution in Bogota.
