April Fool's Treat

This is what the kids had for snack after school today. When they got home I told them that I made dinner early and they were having spaghetti with meatballs, mashed potatoes and gravy, and peas and carrots. They looked at me wierd and then saw the cupcakes and laughed and got excited. I didn't really fool them, they knew they were cupcakes, but it was fun anyway. I got the idea here. I used mini cupcakes so the kids could have one of each kind. They were pretty fast and easy to make. It took a lot more runts than I thought, so I didn't have enough to make more of the peas and carrots.




A couple of Emily's friends came in to enjoy the snack also.
I don't usually make holiday oriented food, but it was fun to do it today, so maybe there will be more of that in the future.
