This is my attempt at making a Thanksgiving cookie. I was planning on making all kinds of cute little turkey cookies but instead I decided to throw myself down the stairs and mess up my ankle. I know. Turkey cookies or the emergency room? Is it a tough choice? Apparently it was for me. I […]
A friend of mine at work bought this amazingly awesome ice cube tray mold for me. I thought it was a giant compliment when she said “I saw this and thought of you.” Seriously! How cool is that! I love it when people see weird but extremely cool things and actually think of me. What […]
Normally when I look at Sue’s blog I sit back and think “Man, why can’t I do that?!” She is amazing and so talented when it comes to baking and decorating the cutest cookies ever. Then I saw this post and thought “holy smokes, I can do that!” I was so excited! I’m always looking […]
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 think I should just rename my blog “All the ideas I steal from Family Fun”. Seriously. Because whenever we get the magazine we all look through it and say “Oh, we have to make that!” about a million times. This was no exception. We had to make this, of course. I mean really… hot […]

We have another fun and delicious Halloween treat for you today. Aren’t these little guys cute? I’m not sure what my favorite part of them is: the delicious white chocolate coating? Or the mouth watering Oreo Cream Cheese filling? Maybe it’s a tie. We found this recipe over on the The Recipe Critic PrintMummy Cookie […]

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 🙂

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!

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!
