Potato Humor

Evan discovered the potatoes in the pantry looked a bit like his Mr. Potato Head.  He found this VERY funny.

Getting it done!

Okay I complained about a number of things I wanted to start "projects" on.  Here is the pics from the cornice boards I wanted for my bathroom.  Check, hubby made them and I covered them.  I tried my idea for the bathroom hook...no bueno, not even going to post those pictures.  I have big plans for the boys bathroom.  Stay tuned.  Next on list-- Make an apron and matching dish towel.  I had bought this fabric a year ago and had not been motivated to do it until I saw pics on one of my fav blogs..."fly through our window".  Check....okay next on the to do list...must wait Christmas is here along with Evan's birthday.  He's almost 3!  Oh dear.......

Elmo cake

Wanted to share the how to of the Elmo Birthday Cake I made for Evan's 1st birthday.
8in Cake round and 3 cupcakes, the rest of the cupcakes can be used for individual lil' Elmos for the other kids. 

Eyes - make 1/2 incision at bottom of eye and gradually come up so the cupcake will sit at an angle.
Nose - do the same but level and cut cupcake in a teardrop. 

Ice up it using cake tips...much patience.

AHH!

So I am inspired...many things of late. My mind is spinning with everything I want to do...to everything. A glimpse:  the bathroom towel rack is ugly, my entry way- I moved everything into another room to redecorate it, the carpet needs shampooing with the baby starting to crawl, make a cool lunch so Evan will eat it.  I also have an itch to sew but not sure yet, think it might be an apron??? 

Towel rack down = need to plaster and paint, didn't see that one coming!
Carpet is still wet...
Daddy is doing turkey sandwich with a STAR cookie cutter...
Think the apron would be cool with a matching dish towel - saw a cool one on a blog today. 
The entry way....will have to wait.  I desparately need a bath.
