April Fools Day 2012

It's that time of year...April Fools.  Some say it is my favorite day of the year.  Some also say that I seem to get a strange amount of pleasure out of tricking my kids.  Some say I spend WWWAAAAYYYY to much time planning and organizing said tricks.  "Some" need to shut their pie-hole (yes, YOU Mr. DingaLinge!).

Ok, fine.  He is right.  I really don't know what it is...but my kids have the BEST reactions to being fooled.  The first year I really did anything, I made meatloaf in a cupcake pan and topped them with colored mashed potatoes.  JP looked at me with his big blue eyes opened wide and yelled "MAMA!!!  These ARE NOT CUPCAKES!!!!!"  And yes, he did use that many exclamation points...ha!

So here is a small sample of what is in store for The Boys when they wake up this fine April 1st Day.



Cold cereal for breakfast.  But WAIT...is it cold cereal?  Could it be....an APRIL FOOLS TRICK?  BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA (yes, that is an evil laugh).  This is, in fact, NOT cold cereal, but white jello topped with little candy necklace pieces!



And look.....Pizza!  The Boys' favorite.  Who can resist gooey cheese and pepperoni?  Well, if you are at OUR table you would be eating a COOKIE instead of pizza.  That's right, that is a GIANT COOKIE.  Topped with strawberry jam "sauce", "shredded" white chocolate, fruit leather "pepperoni", black licorice "black olives", cashew "mushrooms", and gummy worm "green peppers". 

Check back later for lunch and dessert pictures.  BWWHAHAHAHA!
