April Fool's Fun

Who doesn't have cupcakes, fries and sushi for dinner. Geez! We threw the kids out of the kitchen while we prepared our little fool's dinner. Cade heard a little of me talking earlier about what I was planning so he spread the word we were having at least sushi. The kids weren't thrilled!



Just a little fun from Family Fun magazine. The cupcakes are meatloaf in a foil cupcake cup, with pink tinted mashed potatoes. The fries are little bread sticks with ketchup (strawberry jam) in stolen McDonalds ketchup cups. And the sushi is rice krispie treats with gummy worms rolled in the middle wrapped with fruit by the foot. (prominently displayed on my ALL TIME favorite plate that I protect with my life and would DIE if anything ever happened to it, I have and will always LOVE polka dots). Thanks Nicki!
The teenager gave me some crap about the dinner, however at YM activity he told a few friends what his "lame" mother served up for dinner. Hah, I knew he liked it. The next day Cade asked if we could have the same dinner we had last night! I knew it was worth the trouble! And it was good!

What a super cute and fun dinner idea! I will have to remember that! I am happy that you still have - and even more - still LOVE that plate!

How fun - you are a creative one. Help me, how do you put the links to each others blog on the side. I really don't know what I'm doing?
