I think those might be button flowers, Peggy. I recently posted photos of the dried blossoms. Mousetoescamper Dec 3 #16

My mouth literally started watering with that first picture. The tiny details on the spruce (?) needles are intriguing. The flowers are just exquisite. I love being able to zoom in and see it all so clearly. Thanks, Peggy!

I wanted to get up close to those pastries just for that reason. They are truly astonishing! And I loved the tiny pine tree needles too. The flowers are so damn gorgeous!

How great you can zoom in to see them so clearly. Once they're posted, they are fixed so I cannot do that.

It pleases me no end that you can enjoy what I post this much.

I'm not sure what those are; I think they're flowers. I could be mistaken!

I did think they were very cool.

I hadn't even thought about the color scheme, tbh. The bright colors always get me!

That last photo is truly exotic. No idea what it is but it sure caught my eye!

Enjoy your pastry! I have yet to try one; I keep thinking about all those calories!

So glad you enjoyed.

And my birthday was wonderful. IF you want to see my photos from that happy occasion, that thread is probably around here someplace. It was on the 27th and I posted them the same night.
