OK, now it's Thanksgiving morning and I have the "edible arrangement" to prepare. It's chocolate-dipped fruit on skewers that are arranged in a flower pot, with kale as filler. There is a company here that does this and the stuff is beautiful and way-past expensive. I told my mom I could do it, so here I am.....pineapple (to be cookie-cuttered like a flower), strawberries, grapes, honeydew, cantaloupe, bananas and oranges. If it turns out decently, I'll send out a photo, but don't hold your breath......I know how it's done cuz I worked for them during Mothers' Day week, but have never attempted anything beyond the dipping......hundreds of strawberries; won't put a chocolate covered berry in my mouth ever again.....we were encouraged to enjoy the fruits of our labors :)

Im on here when I should be doing lots of things, I just find it more enjoyable and as long as Im using the computer at work, staff assume Im actually working (mind you I always make sure everyone is O.K first) and as for cooking, still have a half finished kitchen, and the novelty of cooking in the fry pan on the lounge room floor has well and truly worn off.

I sent one of these arrangements to my granddaughter for her birthday when she turned 12. She said it was the best present she ever got! Can't wait to see the picture of yours. What kind of chocolate did you use? PS - I meant this to be a comment, oh well ...

It turned out amateurish, partly because of the lack of good kitchen tools and partly because I am an amateur. Everyone thought it was beautiful and clever and enjoyed eating mint-chocolate covered orange slices! I was happy with it and plan to make another one when the opportunity arises. Doing that for my mom was the best part. She's done so much for me (and my sons). When she and my youngest got home last night, the door was unlocked. Nothing missing, but still.....she doesn't deserve that. My son even looked in the crawl space for the intruder (his elder brother the chief suspect), loaded the shotgun and didn't sleep. Happy Thanksgiving. :(
