Will You Go to Prom With Me?

Will you go to prom with me? Oh how sweet! She said YES of course! =P My coworker, Eric, came to me with a request to conjure something up for his son Aaron to ask his little lady friend to prom! He already informally asked her to make sure she will go with him, so now he wants to do something grand to formally ask her! So after racking my brain for a bit, I came up with this cookie bouquet! It's cute and simple and sends a clear message! These are sugar cookies with royal icing planted inside a real ceramic pot! I added a nice red bow for the final touch too! I sure hope these sweet treats bloom their way into her heart and seal the deal for Aaron's prom date! Ah young love! Have fun you two!! =)

Feel free to share how you asked your prom date to prom! Funny, silly, and romantic stories are encouraged! =)

Happy Easter 2011!!

Happy Easter everyone! I made these Easter Bunny, Eggs, and Chicks French Vanilla with Cream Cheese Frosting cake pops for my family to enjoy! These were a lot of fun to make and so easy for everyone to just grab a stick and bite into these sweet delights! These cake pops are covered in white chocolate. The bunny ears, nose, teeth, and chick beak and feet are made of fondant. The eyes and bunny whiskers are painted in with black food coloring. The Easter egg designs are piped on with chocolate. Also, shout outs to my two lovely assistants for helping me dip these cake pop cakes, special thanks to Jennifer and Sonia!! You guys rock! =) Also, special thanks to my supportive hubby Khoa for washing the dishes as well =). Love you all!!!

I hope everyone has had their fun with Easter egg hunts, but here's some humor you don't need to hunt for! Enjoy:
What do you call a rabbit that tells jokes? A funny bunny!
Why did the egg go to school? To get egg-ucated!
How did the eggs leave the freeway? They went through the eggs-it!
How do bunnies stay in shape? They eggercise!
What kind of bean never grows in a garden? Jellybeans!
What do you call 10 rabbits marching backwards? A receding hareline!
What do rabbits have that nothing else in the world has? Baby rabbits!

Happy Easter and I hope everyone's enjoying this day with their loves ones and family!

Nikol's Baby Shower!

Happy Baby Shower Nikol and congratulations in advance on your baby girl Ashley!! Lori asked me to make her sister some sugar cookies party favors for her sister's baby shower, so this is what I came up with! Thanks Chi Hai for the dough from scratch, it was a big time saver!! I made royal icing flow and first outlined my designs onto the cookies, and then watered down the icing a little more to fill in the design. I designed little tags for the favors and printed them on cardstock paper. I then put them in these treat bags, tied them up with a pretty sheer pink ribbon, and then you have cookie favors! This was a very fun and interesting experience with color flow and I feel the key is to have a steady hand! Other than that, it's quite simple!

Here's some cute little baby jokes for you:
What did the baby banana say to it's mother? "I don't peel good."
Why did the mother skunk take her baby to the doctors? Because it was out of odor!
What did the baby corn say to the mama corn? "Where's my popcorn?"
Why shouldn't you tell an Easter egg a joke? It might crack up!

Now for a a little story:
Two babies were sitting in their cribs, when one baby shouted to the other, "Are you a little girl or a little boy?"
"I don't know," replied the other baby giggling.
"What do you mean, you don't know?" said the first baby.
"I mean I don't know how to tell the difference," was the reply.
"Well, I do," said the first baby chuckling, "I'll climb into your crib and find out."
He carefully maneuvered himself into the other baby's crib, then quickly disappeared beneath the blankets.
After a couple of minutes, he resurfaced with a big grin on his face.
"You're a little girl, and I'm a little boy," he said proudly.
"You're ever so clever." cooed the baby girl, "but how can you tell?"
"It's quite easy really," replied the baby boy, "You've got pink socks and I've got blue ones!"

Babies are great little bundles of joy, congratulations to Nikol and her husband on their little baby girl, Ashley! Happy baby shower Nikol!!
