Caviar

"Bucky! What's the occasion?"
"Can't a fella make blini for his best guy without needing an excuse?"
"I sure ain't complainin'! Is that caviar?"
"Yeah. It sure is strange not to count every penny."
"But you made the blini yourself?"
"I guess I know how from when I was Russian."
"Yeah, I guess so... Well, here goes....."
"What do you think?"
"The blini are fantastic! The caviar is... fishy? and salty?"
"I kinda like it."
"I love it, cause you made it."
"Sap."
"Your sap."

Adventures in making miniature food!  I recently bought a great book about dollhouse miniatures that was very inspiring.  It's all about imagining how tiny things can represent other tiny things.  In the pic above the caviar is represented by mustard seeds.  I think maybe poppy seeds would have been even smaller!  But it's funny because the mustard seeds look as big as grapes!!  The blini are brown paper,  the sour cream is white acrylic paint, and the chives are green embroidery thread. It took about an hour I think!!

Thanks, it was really fun to make. :D

It looks right to the naked eye, but then in the photo it's too big in relation to Bucky and Steve, who are on a really small scale. :P
