Breakfast for Dinner Groundhog-style

Tonight I surprised myself by doing something fun for the girls and they actually ate most of it as well. Andy missed out, he'll have to warm up some green pancakes around 9:30 tonight. Here's my version of these:
A friend of mine posted this idea yesterday and I decided to give it a try. Mine are a bit altered - no PB, mini donuts cut in half, regular-sized M&M's, and green eggs. When I went shopping this morning I couldn't find several of the items, so I improvised. Next year if I'm up for the task I'll just do Cheerios for the ears. Now I have to make something with butterscotch chips (which I'm going to try this recipe).

The girls enjoyed their Groundhog dinner. Don't you love how they look at the end of the day??? Rachel's in her dress-up clothes, Audrey's wearing Rachel's sweater, and who knows what happened to Audrey's hair (nap time, I guess!)... But it's us! :)

A few weeks ago this article was circulating around. Well it has a lot of truths in it, the generalizations made me laugh. But we are all guilty of generalizations... I can't remember the last time I made cupcakes, Andy wore a flannel shirt, I did a craft with my girls, or had a party at my house. But I am very positive on my blog and this post would definitely classify as a typical Mormon housewife post. But that's what I am and I love it!

Just as a side note, another friend referred this blog to me. It has lots of cute ideas if you have the time and energy!

CUTE stuff!...What a fun festive mom you are Laura...If after your cookie recipe you have any more butter scotches left over you can make acorns with them. They were the hit of the party at the baby shower my sister threw for me. Ken even assembled them. You just use a little bit of peanut butter to act as the glue and place them on top of hursey kisses...just another use for these delights :)
