Happy Meal Birthday

My husband is a chef, so on his birthday, I HAVE to go all out for his dinner and dessert. He wanted gourmet hamburgers with all the traditional sides. And for the dessert, I got a great idea from a cupcake book my Mom got me last month. I made these:
Hamburger cupcakes!
(A brownie smushed in between two flat cupcakes, with green dyed coconut and red and yellow colored frosting, topped with sesame seeds.)
Cookie fries with pink sauce!
(Cut up sugar cookies sprinkled with sugar crystals and pink frosting on the side.) 
I love how they turned out, and my husband hasn't stopped raving about them. He had to show all the guys at work. I also love how simple they are to make, as far as desserts go. And they were pretty yummy, too. We made em up for all the fathers for Father's Day too.
I know hubs was going easy on me, he could have asked for a much more complicated meal. But this one really made him happy, and that's what counts. It made the rest of us happy too!

Unicorn Poop

I know this is not a "stampin" post, but it is a creation our Dad found and requested Adrienne and I make... so, without further ado here it is:
UNICORN POOP!
 We told the lady at the bakery supply store about the purpose of our visit in getting 'disco dust' and she was so excited and asked us to bring in one of our creations for display... As she had never heard about unicorn poop before, I told her to Google it.  When we brought in this little beauty she told us she had been telling everyone about it and another lady had decided to make some of her own also.  She put our creation in the focal point of all the other displays she had.  It looked so awesome!
For our display we even used edible grass.  Now for some reason I feel like I should be prancing around the neighborhood leaving these cuties on every one's doorstep, but I have more important things to do right now.  But, can you imagine opening your front door to this?  I would just die!
While we had our happy cookie dough going we decided it would be super cute to make a plain rainbow version:
I love it!
Here's to hoping spring is coming soon, and Happy Hunting... for unicorns and their pretty poop.
