Can you say creepy?

Raise of hands, who sent their ultrasound photo out to show friends and family? I think I sent my first one out, that you could barely even tell in the grey fuzzyness. The next, my husband thought was cool, I frankly thought was alien-like with the spine and such. I keep it in the "I will eventually make a baby book box." Here's what I didn't do with it.



Sonogram on a cookie - ewww.

One of my more fun jobs at work is to find giveaways and promotional items, and in my search for a square item I stumbled upon these. Fortunately I have a more creative type than me working to find ideas, but am always open to suggestions.

The lazy way to make really pitiful cupcakes

I posted a question over at Mayasmom for a cute suggestion for preschool baked goodies, and then found this cool idea on the grand all-knowing internet. Only I was lazy...

  • Instead of making my own chocolate covered graham crackers I bought them.
  • Instead of cutting up my own fruit roll-up tassels, I used new "skinny ones"

  • Instead of filling the things with coolwhip, I just put it on top of the cupcakes.

  • Then I was rushed and it was hot and they all slid off on the way to school.



The result was this


Instead of this


And what did I find at school? Tons of cutesy cakes and cupcakes. I wanted to hide mine away, but I got over that and did some quick repairs. And my son wolfed one down anyway.
