Breuklyn's birthday is on Sunday, so I spent all morning finishing up the ice cream cone cupcakes for her class today. I just couldn't help myself and made these sugar cookies that I stuck down in the cupcake so that it looked like a little plant. Those crushed Oreo cookies really do look like dirt, don't they? Needless to say, the Kindergartners were so excited to eat "dirt."
After baking all night, spending a few hours with the Kindergarten class, spending a few more hours out in the sun reading a magazine (woohoo!) and then running Breuklyn to soccer practice, I am ready for some much needed sleep. Especially since we have lots of errands to run tomorrow along with a soccer game and a strawberry cheesecake that a certain almost 6 year old wants me to bake for her birthday. Whew!
What are you doing this weekend?

NOthing as exciting as that. Those ice cream cone cupcakes with the flower cookies are to die for! They look oh so yummy!! Best birthday wishes for the birthday girl!!
Wow! Can you airmail one of those cupcakes! It looks yummy! Hope that Brueklyn has a wonderful birthday!
Those are SO adorable! What a great idea! I've made something similar for one of Kyle's class parties (halloween party; MANY moons ago)... no flower but cake mix baked in the cone, an oval vanilla sandwich cookie (1/2 dipped in white chocolate) as the headstone), a spider ring planted in the side of the cone and gummi worms sticking out of the oreo dirt. The kids loved them... even the girls! What is it about kids & the idea of eating dirt? LOL!
Those are SOOOO cute Estee!! I may have to borrow the idea.... :) Hope she had a happy birthday!!
OH! Those are TOOO cute! I did something like that for Lij when he was in kinder for his bday. I made chocolate cupcakes and frosted them with chocolate frosting and then crumbled Oreos on top and stuck some gummy worms in there. I got that idea from the Family Fun magazine I think. They were called "dirt cups". His classmates LOVED them! Happy Belated Birthday to Breuklyn :)
