My cookies. Most proud of the giant pink whale on the right, the uh... social commentary zombie below, and of course the minimalist reindeer on the left.
Other award-winning creations include "Kangaroo with Stole"
And Tony wins best use of toothpicks with this train
And always, of course, the raccoon-deer!
