Oh...my...GOD.
IHOPs Cinn-A-Stack pancakes should be BANNED they are so darn good. The cinnamony, syrupy goodness with the cream chees icing is sinful--LOVE THEM! So today while I gold leaf my way into a coma, I may stop and make some.
By the way,
Jones Tones glue
makes great raised layers and is fantastic for use with gold leaf and
foils. I also love Aquasize and Mona Lisa foil and leaf glue.
Embellishing my paintings can sometimes take almost as much time as it
does to paint them. Its a long and detailed process--which kills my
back---so I think I deserve some cinnamony goodness today!
