Bunny Breakfast...

We are getting ready for our Great Egg Drop and wanted to experiment with a possible donut treat for breakfast. It's ending up to be a cute addition to our plans.


Supplies needed:

Powdered bavarian creme donuts
Powdered donut holes
White chocolate
White Frosting
Black gel frosting
Black permanent marker
Waxed paper

1. Draw the shape of a bunny ear on the waxed paper, approximately three inches long. Flip the waxed paper over onto a hard surface so that the marker lines are facing downward (a baking sheet works great). The lines will still be visible through the waxed paper.

2. Starting with a half cup of white chocolate morsels, melt them in a glass bowl in the microwave for one minute on high. Stir the white chocolates until they have all melted together.

3. Using a spoon fill in the bunny ear lines and let the white chocolate set in the refrigerator until hardened.

4. Cut the bavarian creme donuts in half and place the flat side onto a dish or tray. This will serve as the bunny body.

5. Use the black gel to create bunny faces on the donut hole.

6. Use white frosting to create a tail using either a caking decorating utensil or by placing frosting into a plastic bag and cutting a corner to squeeze the frosting through.

7. Also use some of the white frosting to connect the donut hole to the bunny body.

8. Using a sharp knife, make a slice in the top of the donut whole and place the bunny ears inside

The Perfect Book for a Picky Eater...

Great Book for picky eaters and parents of picky eaters!  It's all about Lola who doesn't really think she likes any foods at all, until her big sister Charlie tricks her into thinking all of the food she doesn't like is from exotic places like Jupiter and special supermarkets for mermaids under the sea.  Lola reluctantly begins to eat and surprisingly tries it all finding foods she actually likes!

Double Bunny Food...

There are five people in our family, which is why we double the bunny food in our house.  Leading into the holiday weekend we thought it would be fun to have tonight.  And, for a busy night it wasn't to tough to create, which is always a plus no matter what day of the week; there are many activities for little hands to help.  I absolutely LOVE the sauteed vegetables with just a bit of garlic (my favorite).  The garlic is so subtle that the kids don't mind it one bit & it's good for them.

Another Healthy Kid Visit...

We visited another school this past week.  Dianne and I visited the PreK-K program and kicked it off with the Story of Lola and Charlie titled, I Won't Ever Eat a Tomato! And, then I had a chance to chat with them and make a healthy dessert alternative.

We then visited with grades 1st through 8th....

They loved making the dessert, Mini Flower Pots.  It's a travelling staple...old to the blog,
but new to each school I visit.
Surprisingly, 4th grade told me it was better than chocolate...
