Narcissism

Little Brother B celebrated his 9th birthday this past month, and being 97% cowboy*, requested a "rattlesnake cake" and a "Red Ryder BB gun!" As the culinary crackpot of the family, I enthusiastically undertook the challenge. Two hours of complete abandon and concentration produced this masterpiece, of which I am undeniably vain.


* He is also 1% each Angel, Genius, and Fury

I had my ninth birthday in Anaheim in US. Anaheim like Disneyland (not Walt Disney World or Eurodisney), back then already; Anaheim like Mighty Ducks of Anaheim (now).

Ma and I were staying with a family, and a cake was made. Unfortunately it did not include Marzipan as I would have liked ... they do not know that thing in the US.

ps, if you do not know what it is, here is wikipedia on Marzipan
