Peanut butter and raisins – Let the art begin

strawberries frozen fruit, peanut butter and raisins on rice cakes

For me personally, I’m not a huge fan of peanut butter and raisins. Part of that might be because I can’t stand celery, and therefore “ants on a log” are out of the question.

The above rice cakes? Uh, yeah, please keep the cardboard to yourself. I’ll pass.

But raisins are awesome, nonetheless, because you get to draw with them…..create faces and shapes and abstract art and even just piles of fruitiness that are somehow better because you make them yourself. Raisins are incredible like that….even if they are just dried up, wrinkly fruit blobs.

Baby chicks made out of baby chick wannabes?

Hard boiled eggs cut and shaped to look like baby chicks
That’s not weird at all. :P

With it being Easter, we always end up with several eggs whose shells crack ever so slightly, leaving the whites beneath colored as well. I’m picturing lots of punk rocker eggs with mohawks or hippie variations, too.

From the same blog, I love these:

Say it with a Kiss – Hershey Kiss birthday cake

Hershey shaped cake with levels of Hershey kisses, with a bit Hershey kiss on top. What more could a girl ask for? Yay chocolate.

This one was for L’s birthday in ‘09 and you can see in the picture below there was lots of lovey dovey accents with heart plates, red/pink decorations, and even red kool-aid to match.

As per our usual tradition of not being allowed to see the cake until the moment the party is ready to light the candles and blow them out, here’s L waiting anxiously:

Does that not look anxious enough? How about this one then?

Yeah, excitement does funny things to one’s face, hehe.
