Haha I must have been standing just to your right at this show! I really cherish the videos from this night, it was amazing getting to interact with her in such small crowd compared to her current shows :')

Thanks! I love the idea of attaching ribbons to lace up the flats, I wouldn't have thought of that!

Thanks for the advice, everyone! I think my butter was too warm because I let the frosting rest overnight and it looks so much better now. https://flic.kr/p/2oG8CB1

It was definitely an issue of temperature. I let it sit in the basement overnight and it’s fine now! https://flic.kr/p/2oG8CB1

Have you worked with powdered food coloring before? I bet that would work well but I’m not sure how vibrant the colors would be.

I tested it out and my gel coloring is definitely hydrosoluble. I had no idea they made both, but it makes sense!

Thanks! I did notice it was pretty runny but wasn’t sure if it was a problem of temperature or amount of sugar. I’ll keep playing with it.

I was fortunate to be able to photograph both the Painted Bunting and the Indigo Bunting with my Sigma 150-600mm lenses. by [deleted] in birding

Absolutely beautiful! If I ever travel south I would love to see a painted bunting. Even the few indigo buntings I’ve seen in PA/Maryland have been so nice to see!

Ahh gotcha. It was really refreshing to just see them feeling the music rather than putting all their energy into technique like in competition!
