If I were Martha, I would make these:
Nesting Baby-Bluebird Cupcakes
And these:
Lollipop-Flower Cupcakes
And lots of These:
Butterfly Cupcakes
Some Tasty These:
Bug Cupcakes
And some crawly these:
Chrysanthemum Cupcakes
Oh, and I wouldn’t forget these:
Cupcake Pops
There’s only ONE problem. I’m not Martha.
So enjoy the links to Martha’s site because it would be a miracle if I actually figured out how to make *these* with my kids!
I don’t hold anything against Martha, other than the fact that she makes the rest of the civilized mothers in the world look bad. Not to mention, she takes the credit for a huge staff of people that create. (Kind of like Oprah teaching parenting without having any offspring of her own). I’ll get over it… and so will my family. That is, if they don’t know what they re missing.
It reminds me of one time when I took my kids out to eat on the way to our cabin. Brighton ordered a Corn Dog. She complained and wouldn’t eat it because
“It was golden brown and crispy”.
TRANSLATION: It was actually made how it should be with a process that
didn’t involve a microwave.
I have never wanted my kids to be set up for
perfection you see, so I keep it real simple at home!
Epidurals and microwaves were meant to make our lives easier right?!
*Happy Easter*
LOL! I feel the same way! I'd love to be able to be super crafty, but I'll just have to use my other talents that God gave me!
Amen! I love it! Still trying to work on the TAG. Dang morning sickness!
Amen to that! I totally agree with the "keeping it simple at home"!
LMAO! That's why I don't keep trying and aspiring to be a better baker. I like my kids to think that all the best sweets are bought from the store! No reason to get their hopes up for anything else! 😉
I am not crafty no matter how badly I want to be. I am however, happy to go to our local cupcake shop and buy the crafty creations made by someone who is 🙂

Love the pics! I also love cooking like that too. Alyssa and I made cake pops for the first time the other day, so I need organize the pics and show everyone.
oh goodness, cracking up over the corn dog story!! I am not Martha Stewart either, tho I love beautiful things like those cup cakes, I could never get it all together to take the time to do those, I'm always behind on laundry and cleaning!! My kids are lucky to get cupcakes made from a box mix!
