Tasting Disaster!

Posted in: Food,Holidays

Often times, I find myself with grand dreams and schemes.  My schemes to the real thing ratio is actually pretty high.  Unfotunately this time, it just didn’t happen.  Thinking to myself I say, “Hmmm, we need snacks at the Egg Hunt.  Let’s make them healthy.  How do we make veggies fun?  Veggie men on skewers, with string cheese hair!!  Of course.

It’s obvious from the pictures. Veggie men were definitely NOT the answers.

The cupcake cones were really easy and fun to make.  I was wanting to do a really stiff frosting that peaked nicely to make it look like ice cream, but I don’t have all the right tools so, melted ice cream was the outcome.

    I think the veggie men look cool (of course, I also made my own fruit skewer bouquet last time I was taking fruit somewhere, which didn’t even turn out that great, but I was committed by then :)

    I love your ideas. I think the food looks awesome! I still remember the hotdog men from our halloween party.

    @Bethany, I totally forgot about those little men. We now make an octopus for Hudson out of his hotdogs.
