My m-i-l especially liked the kitty litter cake.
BEHOLD! My masterpiece. I especially like the way the microwaved tootsie rolls gave it that extra special something.
This little dish is called "diaper dump porridge".
Hot Dogs and french fries for breakfast (banannas and breadsticks rolled in sugar; strawberry jam instead of ketchup.

Last year, I had a bit of fun getting creative with an April Fool's Day dinner. I made little meatloaves in cup cake liners, topped with colored mashed potatoes to look like cup cakes. I also put red jello into drinking glasses, letting it set up in them, to look like punch. I enjoyed watching my kids reactions so much, that I decided to do it again this year- and I made a photo documentary to go along with it.

Oh, my heck Lorien! That cake really looks like kitty litter! I couldn't eat any of it! I am a visual! I can't wait to talk to you about it!
