Puppy Love

January 28, 2011 by


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 dogs and Valentine’s? What’s not to love, right? =o)

My kids loved it. Not that the hot dogs were anything special. But the presentation was what got them. They sat down at the dinner table and both smiled so big. And then came the “ah, Mom. This is so cool. You did this because you love us so much, right?” Dang. They know me so well!

You will need:
* hot dogs (duh)
* uncooked spaghetti noodles
* cheese

That’s it! Heart away! And don’t you just love the name? I stole that too =o)

I link to the linky parties on my sidebar.

    LOL I steal from them all the time too. Pretty funny. I was just noticing how many of your kid recipes have hotdogs or “imitation” hot dogs (aka cookies) in them. 🙂

    I’m going to make these adn the little ones covered in brown sugar for Super Bowl. Oh yum! I can’t wait!!!!

    I love that magazine and just made the yarn hearts from this last issue! And I frequently think I should rename my blog to “another project done ’round our kitchen table,” heehee!

    I adore the family fun website! I “borrow” their ideas all the time. I love this hot dog dish. I may “borrow” it for my valentine muffin tin meal.

    I love your site by the way. I am now a follower!
