Beautiful "Flowers"

Here is a wonderful arrangement I received from some of my students for my going away party. It's full of all things Hungarian - Turo Rudi, marzipan candies, peppers as the flowers, two small alcohol bottles, a felt keychain, and ribbons that are red, white and green - the colors of the flag. It's absolutely beautiful - and very thoughtful. Particularly thoughtful was the fact that the Turo Rudi needs to be refrigerated (it's basically cottage cheese dipped in chocolate) - so they ate it and stuffed the wrapper with scrap paper... funny Hungarians :)

Unicum is a Hungarian alcohol, and the small red ball is a pepper.
