Fun with Fondant or Leah's Cake Walk Returns

A couple of days ago, I decided that I really wanted to learn how to do fondant. So, I opened up my Wilton cookbook and looked up the recipe. It turns out to be very difficult to make and work with, which I kind of already knew, but here is my first effort. Not too bad, I thought. This is something that I would really like to be good at. I think it's fun to have an occasion, some sort of criterion, that I need to design for, and then to create edible art. Too bad desire alone isn't enough.
