Check out this very interesting short news piece from the Wall Street Journal and the wonderful Jillian Mincer. Jillian was telling us all about this at cousin Katie's Bridal Shower, and I am just fascinated by the whole thing! Such an interesting tradition (I especially find the fact that the sculptures are 100% butter, which is often used, fascinating!).
Ohmygod. There was a giant butter cow at the IL state fair, and it was a combination of awesome and HORRIFYING. Seeing all of that butter for some reason just made me want to vomit! But I have to say that the ability to sculpt it is pretty damn impressive...
ReplyDeleteThere was also a butter sculpture plot-line on Weeds a couple of weeks back. Is this a big thing now?!
