You’re going to think this is either gross or totally cool. Or maybe a little bit of both. Either way, it’s perfect for Halloween! And my kids thought it was totally grossly cool! Sloppy Joe Intestines! Or maybe it’s Sloppy Joe Colon. But that sounds too gross, even for me. I found the idea here […]
I mentioned in my last post for our Faux Deviled Eggs that I love April Fools Day and all the fun food ideas. Well, here’s another super cute idea. How about making a Chicken Not Pie for dinner for your kids. Did you catch that? Chicken Not Pie. I know, clever right? (Or were you […]
I remember making this years and years ago for a friend’s children. It was pretty cool (I thought) so my kids and I thought we would make it again for some friends. It’s super easy and it’s fun to do! What you will need: * any kind of clear bowl. We used a fish bowl […]
Here is an easy and fun treat for the kids. They didn’t turn out as cool as I had hoped. I think it was because there was so many bubbles in our 7 Up. But the kids didn’t seem to mind. PrintGummy Bear Popsicles Ingredients7 Up Gummy BearsInstructionsLet your 7 Up sit out for […]
My daughter’s pre-school class has been learning Japanese all year. It’s so cool to hear her speak and she is so proud when she comes home and tells me the new words she has learned. At the school’s Spring Fling Bar-B-Que her class sang “Jesus Loves Me” in Japanese! In Japanese!!! She’s 5 years old! […]
Normally by now I’ve posted a few Thanksgiving fun food recipes. Apparently I’m a little slow this year. I can’t believe this is our first (and only one!) But it is a fun one. How cute are these little guys? I thought my kids would have a great time making these. I bought all the […]
To continue our April Fools Day fun food extravaganza, we have a simple but fun one for you today – Peanut Butter Potstickers. They don’t totally look like potstickers, but my kids didn’t care. They loved them. And they were so simple to make. Thanks Party Pinching for this great idea. What you’ll need: * […]
This might be the last of our Easter treats for this year. But seriously, don’t hold me to that. Sometimes we just bake on a whim so there might be more =o) So guess where I saw this cute idea. Give up? It’s another Family Fun magazine idea. I am totally in love with that […]

I love it! I’m so going to do this. Thanks!!!
Well that’s the most fun! I’m so filing it away for ‘soon.’
How do you get brown caulk for the chocolate frosting?
I made these before they are soo cool! I used white caulking and then I just spray painted the whole thing again so the white caulking turned brown.
Kristin – caulking comes in lots of different colors.
This is too fun! I have 14 grandkids all over the country. I love to send them ‘happy mail’! Great idea.
How did they handle transit through the USPS? We’re they still intact?
What a great idea! This is great Erin!
So cute! I love this! I thought it was real cake when I first looked at it. You are the best mom for doing all these great things with your kids:)
This is brilliant! I love your conversation at the post office! I bet the faces of the recipients were fabulous as well!
Those are super cute!! We’ve make sponge cakes for our play kitchen before 🙂 mmm yummy yummy cake 🙂
Thanks for sharing at Sharing Saturday!
great idea, and the result is very cute! Tina
This is SO SO cute! I love it and I’m sure the bday kid would too! You are a Featured Favorite this week on Saturday Show & Tell on Cheerios and Lattes! We loved having you join us last week and can’t wait to see what you have been up to this week! Have a great weekend!
Mackenzie 🙂
ok, I’m definitely making these. I wish I had thought of it.
you have such creative ideas…so glad you share them with us!
These are great! I have never thought to mail anything that wasn’rt in a envelope or a box. I love the Easter eggs. That would make a great card/gift. I am going to have to come up with something fun to mail to my sister. Love these!
an awesome ideal, everybody would love these
Nice idea. The chocolate one looks so real.
Wow it looks so real! Neat idea!
What a great idea. Thank you for sharing.

Wow, they look so real! I really thought they were pieces of very sponge-y cake! This is such a clever idea and would make for a real surprise to receive in the mail! The acrylic caulking really does look so much like frosting, it’s unbelievable! Thanks for sharing this excellent idea!
That is so cool I thought it was real cake and now im hungry..lol
Haha this is unique. My friends would love this. And I can imagine the look on every single mailman/woman when they think they just grabbed a real piece of cake from the outgoing stack =P
Wow, that is so cute and so funny! I had no idea you could put something like that in the mail.
Very coll idea, great way to spend time with the kids creating them and eating
What a cute idea, I love your crafts!
I so love this idea. I must try this!
