Cornucopia

My sister and I made the Cornucopia a few years ago. I found the recipe in a magazine and thought, how neat! We followed the directions given and used the picture as a guide. The picture was probably more help than the actual recipe. We didn't really think it would turn out between all the giggling we did.......my 2 nieces thought their mom and I were nuts. It was just such a different idea and very interesting to put toghether. However the Cornucopia turned out beautifully and was a huge hit with my co-workers!! If you are just slightly thinking about making this .......MAKE IT!! IF YOU MAKE IT......THEY WILL LOVE IT!!! KJW :):)
