Totie Fields was a Jewish American comedian, popular in the 60's and 70's. Ed Sullivan gave her career a break by bringing her on his variety show (shoe!!). She was plagued with health problems all her life, had a leg amputated because of diabetes, heart attacks, breast cancer and died of a pulmonary embolism at age 48. She used her amputation as part of her act; losing a lot of weight, she joked 'I've waited all my life to say this; I weigh less than Elizabeth Taylor.'
I used my little wood mounted macaron with pastel colored ep and some clear glitter LP for the filling. I like macarons a lot but I think I like to look at them mostly, especially if they're displayed in a box...a rainbow of sweetness.

Super look to use the chunkier ep. for you cookies! I remember Totie Fields but had no idea she suffered so much and died at an early age. Your card is sweet!
