FRIDA

One of my dreams is to visit Frida Kahlo's fabled Casa Azul in Mexico.

What a wonderful inspiring woman and artist she was.

"The two Fridas"-selfportrait 1939.   Pain and passion holding hands.









  I read her biography few years ago but decided to read it again.


 I'd love to wear flowers in my hair like she used to do. Sadly I never dared to (so far).
I cannot wait to make these wonderful cookies modeled after Frida. 
I love the liquirice eyebrows and the beautiful sugar roses. So cute :-)
 here you can find the recipe by the lovely sisters of A beautiful mess.
