  5. Congradulations on your award, Smita, you really deserve it!! I'm just loving the peacock feather, it is my favorite!! I love the colors. And the french fries for the flute, those are the prettiest fries I've ever seen!!! Your food is all just stunning!! You really are a true artist. How do your think of these ideas and where do you come up with them? I'm hoping to try some of these on the four year old we babysit, and my four year old granddaughter, as well.
