In My Corner


Dancing Ganesha. My Hindu tchotchke, bought at a Buddhist Tibetan store the other week to help me my finish writing The Book. 

He looks like, but isn't, marzipan. I wish he were: I'd ritually consume him when I'm done. Maybe I'll make a marzipan Ganesha for Christmas, to fill in a missing religion.

  1. I have long searched for a buttercream and jam Cthulhu shaped cake. One day, Manfred, one day....

  2. A bit of Maya in this Ganesha, if he looks like marzipan but isn't.

  3. MANFRED: I googled that. They exist.

    ARTS: Temptation and trickery is everywhere, eh?

  5. EMMA: The Puritans would not appreciate it, I'm afraid.

  6. Oh, what a yummy-looking Ganesh! I agree, the Puritans would be delightfully appalled. :)
