80s cartoon creations – Smurfs, Scooby, Care Bears, Jetsons
Nablopomo – Favorite animated character
Yay, time for some cartoon fun. I don’t have a favorite, but here are some other people’s creations related to some cartoons I would’ve watched in mostly the 80s. (The picture above is mostly 90s toons that my sister would’ve watched instead, but I thought it was a cool collection of cupcakes).
Bugs Bunny Sandwich – Did you know they brought Bugs back?? In 2011, they have a new show called The Looney Tunes Show where Bugs and Daffy are living together in LA and all their neighbors are other toons from the original shows from long ago. I haven’t brought myself to actually watch it yet.
Care Bears Bento – Bento boxes still amaze me
Flintstones Googly Vitamins – The whole site is filled with things with googly eyes.
Muppet Babies Cakes
Jetsons-style Electrolux Moleculaire food printer – Here’s a video explaining how it works, but doesn’t it remind you of the Jetsons?
Rainbows after a storm? – Birthday must go on (Picture heavy)
You’ve seen lots of birthday cakes and party pictures here before. They’re a big deal for us!
For as long as I can remember, my mom would spend the whole morning working on the birthday cake, usually hidden away in the kitchen by sheets tacked up across doorways so no one could peek. Birthday person’s eyes are even shielded up until the very moment that everyone is gathered around the table with the cake right in front of their spot.
Sometimes, that doesn’t go quite as planned, though. My sister’s birthday 3 years ago was all sorts of crazy.
A large craft/art fair that’s held near us and we go to every year just happened to fall on the same day that year. We got up early, rushed off to the event, spent a few hours crafting to our little heart’s content and browsing as many of the vendors as possible (and getting face paint!), before scooting back off home for the rest of the day’s plans.
Only….did I mention that my mom had been sick? And that by the time we left, she was ready to crash already? And guess who still had a cake to prepare and party to throw? Yep!
This year’s cake? Kit Kat mountain with a 3D rainbow.
Which is exactly what my mom made, but not exactly what my sister got.
Instead, this happened not long before the party was set to start:
That lovely crack right down the middle meant there would be no more standing it back up either.
But the show must go on, right? So icing was scraped away as much as possible, the rainbow laid flat instead of upright, and the remaining icing was smoothed across with a butter knife.
Add some white linings and last minute snow on the mountain, and we were good to go, wee! Can you see the remaining cake still stuck to the mountain where it fell? Oops!
Ultimately, it ended up looking pretty cool still and now comes with quite the story, too, huh? Hehe.
And I’m pretty sure, judging by these reaction pictures, birthday girl wasn’t too disappointed by it either.
And as if this post didn’t already have a ton of pictures, here’s a few more…
From the bottom of that picture to the top, that’s a cooked frozen pizza, a mess of cake and icing gone crazy, the heart pan she cut the rainbow out of, and another few pizzas back there.
Yes, there’s a reason she got a watermelon for her birthday. No, I’m not telling you what it is. :P
That’s a glob of icing. Really, not a good day for icing going where it was supposed to go. 
Every kid should have a good pet rock or two…
Okay, that’s it for now. As I continue going through old CDs of pictures, I’m sure I’ll have more picture-heavy posts like this for ya, so be prepared.
Random Fun Food Pictures
I’m always finding random food pictures, but usually toss them on my QJ tumblr or save them and never get around to posting them. Here’s some to enjoy for today, though.
Here’s some other banana art, although not nearly as creepy/scary.
Remember my sister’s Pacman party? These would’ve been awesome for breakfast.
Man, and I thought my meatbaby was creepy. This one is a bit more 3D and dare I say, realistic looking. Ew.
Old Spice and Axe chocolate head sculpture
I don’t generally like posting things like this. I found the pictures on theChive, however, I know they aren’t their pictures (and while I’m stating the site name and they’ve watermarked them as their own, I’m not putting a link here). I’ve seen some of them elsewhere, but they don’t list the sources and I can’t hunt down several of them to their original source. If you know who made these, please let me know so I can give credit where credit due (and maybe find some more awesomeness while I’m at it, hehe).
