    I'm into computer art of most kinds... photo manipulation, typography art, digital painting.... not much time for it anymore, but I still enjoy it.

    I'm almost inspired to try it. Not yet though. Maybe in a few months. With store bought dough.

    Put it in my inbox. Also with all the special handling tips - I know pie dough making takes some finesse.

    Thanks!

    I think that looks great.
    My talents are cooking and baking and figure skating. This is a Plants vs Zombies cake I made a few years ago.

    That looks AWESOME! I made a minecraft cake for my nephew once. I hate baking but I dont mind the decorating. It didnt look as stream line and perfect as yours. Mine looked like it was melting! Melting! Oh what a world!

    Just keep practicing.

    This cake was melting:

    One year and a few cakes later, made the Mario fondant topper for this store bought cake:

    Now I have synckat over here getting me to try pastry. I'm not as confidant about that.

    The great part is that no matter what it looks like, you can enjoy it!

    Your makeup game is on point. That means you can paint. Try it some time. You find these things carry over.

    That is some talented computer art! I love the one with the girl in it.. Serene! The star chart looks like something my son would tack up on his wall. Very nice!

    Here's a few:

    Self Explanatory


    Table setting


    Paper cutting & Origami


    Baking & Chocolatiering


    Sewing

    Lol! Nice shooting.. Remind me never to rob you! That is a beautifully done table. It looks professional! Love your snowflakes. I dabble with origami but I could never cut a pretty snowflake. Mine look like they have barely survived a mishap with a blender! I cant bake. I just cant. My kids say eating my food is like playing Russian Roulette. What a beautiful dress! Best I can do is minor repairs or quick throw togethers. I want to learn to sew so I can make my kids amazing halloween outfits but Im better at just finding trash clothing at a thrift shop and modifying them to "look" like some semblance of a costume.

    My daughters Link costume. No Sewing involved.. except the hat but that dont count. Everything was thrown together from thrift shop items and stuff I already had in my closet. The sword was hand made by my brother.

    Also, what did your daughter's friends think of her costume? Because that looks a lot better than a store bought costume!

    Well.. Most congratulated her on her unique "Lord of the Rings" elf costume. The majority of the rest asked if she were the keebler elf. Only two people "almost" got it right. They said they LOVED her Zelda costume. No one commented about Link at all.
    I made these from thrift store scraps when they were in kindergarten and 3rd. A few weeks later.. she chopped off her own hair.. ynbmo9c89ldh.jpg

    Bah! Everyone is talented! It may be something you cant share visually with us but everyone is talented! Like the person who speaks 5 languages! I want that talent. I would trade my talents in for that ability.. I could offend so many different cultures.. Oh well. A gifted mathematician may not think he has a talent. Do you do poetry?

    Sports is a talent and I love hockey! That is one sport I can actually stand watching. And I hate sports unless I am playing it.

    OMG.. My nephew is 8 and is OBSESSED with everything Mario. He keeps stealing my minecraft character and changing her name to MarioLuigiDude and finding mario skins to dress her in. Everyone on minecraft now thinks I am a boy in real life. I gave up putting on goth skins.
