Crazy Thoughts

Every once in a while the Type A, Over-reaching, Wannabe, mother in me gets crazy thoughts and I have to beat her into submission. I'm signed up to bring "sweets" to the boys valentine party at pre-school on Wednesday. The other day when I was thinking about what to bring, cupcakes popped into my head. Then I started looking online at different blogs and got thinking that I should make something like this:



Or this:


The crazy woman in my head was thinking, yeah, this tutorial makes it seem pretty easy, and I'd only be doing hearts, that's less complicated than woodland animals. They would be soooo cute, and the boys would love them!

Seriously, how ridiculous. The boys could care less, and frankly three and four year olds don't care that much about the decorations on cookies. No offense to the wonderful women who do stuff like this as a hobby, I'm impressed with your talent and fortitude, but seriously, who spends half a day decorating cookies that will be eaten in five minutes? Not me.
