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.

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

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

    MANFRED: I googled that. They exist.

    ARTS: Temptation and trickery is everywhere, eh?

    Something so delightfully juxtaposed with Ganesh dancing on Puritans at Play

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

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