I have always wanted to make one of these. Yours is so gorgeous. I am sure it tasted even better. What great cooks.
ReplyDeleteI have always admired these when I saw them---but they intimidate me! The best part is the time you shared with Brianna and the lifelong interest you may be helping to spark in her! I think your first effort looks professional!
