      What ARE these? can you eat them? Did they taste nice?

      i don't know Lesley..i bet they taste good but some of them look like little mushrooms dipped in chocolate and the others look like they might have poppyseeds on them...

      Gaudenta, if you could tell us a little more about these treats and the market that would be great; when you have time of course...

      Grybai or mushrooms! A pain to make! They are a spice cookie shaped like a mushroom - you make caps and stems separately. They contain a variety of nutmeg, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, cardamon, orange peel, brown sugar and honey. Sort of like those little German cookies you see around Christmas- Pfeffernusse. These are so cute and much nice looking than any I ever made.

      Well, these cookies are really tasty :) In fact, in Lithuania we cook their caps and stems together. 2 halves (vertical) are put together - and here we have a cookie :) Then its cap is put into hot chocolate, stem - into glaze. When glaze and chocolate freeze - a cookie is put into poppies :) and here you have a mushroom!

      About Kaziuko muge ("Kaziukas' mart")... Every year (first weeknd of March) it is held in some squares in Vilnius (capital of Lithuania). There you can buy some original hand-made things in a good price, for example: ceramics, clothes from wool or flax, collars of amber, wood, metal, some ornaments, paintings and lots of small cute things :)
