I’ve got bunnies on the brain — must be because Easter is right around the corner! This simple yet festive dinner was brought to you by leftovers. I know, I know—kids hate leftovers, right? But when you present them in an irresistible way, what’s not to love? My girls got their own bunny dinner last night, and their squeals of joy brought a smile to my face! Take that leftovers!

I’m still whipping up snacks for Nickelodeon Parents Connect site.  It’s been a challenge to come up with so many new snacks in such a short amount of time, but it’s been so much fun!!!  I’m not going to lie, I may have lost sleep due to my overactive brain digging up ideas and ingredients, but it’s paid off!!

Here are the next 5 fun snacks featured on Nickelodeon!!

Leprechauns, shamrocks, pots of gold, rainbows, something about the Irish and all that green lucky stuff makes up St. Patrick’s Day!  The only thing I ever did as a kid to celebrat was wear green because I didn’t want to get pinched.  Now I just make sure my girls are wearing green!!  I hated getting pinched.  Seems so cruel.  Whether you send your little one to school wearing green or not, having a warm leprechaun hat croissant waiting for them when they get home will definitely make them feel like the luckiest kid!!

Waldo and his sneaky hiding places just got a little bit more tasty! Have you spent hours pouring over those Where’s Waldo books to find the skinny adventurer in the red-and-white striped sweater? I know I have! My kids love the books, too. There’s some sort of Waldo craze going on right now (at least in my house), and I’m jumping on board with this fun and simple pasta — where Waldo just happens to be hiding!

So sneaky of you Mr. Waldo!!!

Dr. Suess is a creative genius.  What an imagination!! With his birthday this month and his new movie, The Lorax in theaters, I knew I had to whip up some Dr. Suess fun!!  I haven’t made it to the theaters yet, much to the dismay of my three girls.  They want to see The Lorax soooo badly {and I do too}!! Until we can get it together to go to the movies, this adorably fun snack/lunch will keep their appetites entertained!!

It’s been unusually warm where I live. The trees have been tricked into thinking it’s spring and are already starting to blossom, which inspired this adorable healthy-lunch idea.  Bringing the outdoors in!!

Someone asked me to come up with a baby shower snack and then decided to change the theme on me and I had to create something else for them.  My mind was already brain storming baby shower ideas, so of course I whipped one up while the idea was still in my mind!

Baby Shower Food: Baby Carriages

 ~ Boiled Eggs ~ Baby Carrots ~

So simple.  So adorable.

I’m going to tattle on myself and let you know that I send pics of all my creations to my hubby and to my twin sister for their approval before I submit or publish them.  If they don’t like them, then you don’t get to see them.  They help me strive for excellence!!
So, of course I sent the picture above to my twin sister.
Instead of her usual comments, she sent me this picture of her 7yo son:

He saw the picture I sent and said that he could make it.
So he did!!
All by himself!!
And in a matter of minutes too!!

LOVE how simple fun food can really be!!!!

Clementines add a bright, citrusy burst to the dull gray days of winter. Not only are they delicious, they’re nutritious, too — and they’re the perfect size for snacking (for kids and adults!). I always have a full box of Cuties on hand this time of year, and with so many of them in my house, I knew I had to create a fun snack out of them. How about a goldfish? Don’t mind if I do!
