It's the end of term and I have marking and grading to sort out, so please excuse me if I am a slow blogger.

Aaaaaahhh! Sweet. But surely, knowing the house rules, this must have been taken on a Saturday ????? Love Pa and Granny.

Sorry we were forgetting. Just worked it out. Santa Lucia's Day ???

What a delightful way to teach spatial relationships and colour harmonies! (Also how to get oodles of funding from the Arty-pharty galleries?) And the only way to complete the edible art form (after duChamp and his cracked glass) must be to nibble chunks off them!

P.S. Hi Tuva, I love your St John the Baptist (post Salome) impression.
And Strawberry, brilliant effort but they say you can't fit a quart into a pint pot! (nor your head into a tumbler.)

Much more appealing than mere smarties

Hi Pi. Too many smartar..... , sorry smarties in this family already. Warm regards, Mike.

Quite right Ann & Mike, it was taken on a Saturday. For Lucia we have special buns with saffron in them and ginger biscuits, not that we celebrated in full force this year as both girls were off sick from school.
Not to worry, all back to normal now.

Crowbard, it was Tuva's brilliant idea, it was interesting to watch each sculpture change as the available building material slowly vanished.

Pat, usually they're allowed to choose 12 sweets every Saturday from the pick'n'mix. This time it was the remains of the hoards that they had gathered on Halloween.
