I also love Easter because it gives me an excuse to try new baking projects. I teach the CTR 6 kids (6 year olds going on 7) at church and get to teach them every Sunday. They are so fun to teach! They are also happy recipients to my treats and goodies. Easter, after all, is a very special occasion, so I made goodie bags with these little chick cupcakes and some candies.
So fun to make and super easy! I added food coloring to coconut in a ziploc baggie, and shook it around until it was the yellow I wanted. I used chocolate chips (put them in upside down) for the eyes and cut up little orange slice gummies for the beaks.
We also had Charles' brother and a couple friends over for Easter dinner. Charles didn't know what an "Easter Dinner" was, so I got a ham and showed him. It was a yummy dinner with ham, mashed potatoes, salad, rolls, corn, and cheesecake.
We also became one with our inner child-like selves and dyed eggs! Except this wasn't the egg decorating that I always did as a kid when I just dumped the egg in the cup, pulled it out, and giggled with glee... No, we are more legit than that.
Check out our egg-cellent collection! (haha.. yes, pun intended)
Charles made the super cute minion in the middle, and I made the Gastly and 3 eyed monster dude from Toy Story. I was very impressed how they all turned out!
