april fools’ dinner

April 1, 2013 by Erin 5 Comments

 
 
I made a fun April Fools’ dinner and dessert last year.
Check it out.  You can do it today!!!
The dinner looked like dessert and the dessert looked like dinner. 🙂 hahaha.
The kids thought this was hilarious! And were hopped up on sugar for the rest of the evening.

Kevin has to work late tonight, so he hasn’t seen his leftovers yet. hehe. I am sure he will be thrilled. 🙂

Cupcakes for dinner  
(individual meatloaves with pink mashed potato “frosting”
 
And for dessert……Chicken nuggets, (cut up PayDay bar)
peas and carrots, (Skittles)
mashed potatoes, (vanilla ice cream) gravy, (caramel) and a pat of butter (Starburst)!
bahhahaha.
It was so funny. The kids were sitting at the table patiently and I brought the dinner to the table.
I exclaimed excitedly that we are having cupcakes for dinner! Oh, they were so happy! haha. And then…..
She caught right on, and thought it was just so silly!
 
He was so skeptical. But, they both loved it and ate the whole ‘cupcake’.
 
 
Then it was time for dessert…..
 
 

It was a really fun dinner. And now I get to do it all again with Kevin when he gets home from work!
Happy April Fools’ Day!
