Some of my favorite new submissions this week:

 

When you don't know if you should be more relieved... or worried:

Is that... a pie tin?

Her local bakery didn't have a bowling design, so Renee brought in a little plastic bowling kit a few days ahead of time for them to use on her son's birthday cake.

The good news?

They DID put the plastic bowling set on the cake.

The bad news?

This was the cake:

FORE!!

I'll give you a hint on this next one: it's a football helmet.
Now see if you can figure out what it is:

No clue, right? Right there with ya.

THIS, my friends, is a simple-but-sweet Cornelli Lace sheet cake:

 

And THIS is what happens when a baker sees that photo and says, "I could knock that sucker out in like 90 seconds. You! Boy! THROW ME THAT PIPING BAG."

Boo. Ya. Emphasis on the "boo."

Which I thought was maybe a little inappropriate for a three year old, but then John pointed out it's supposed to be a dirt path.

[and also the number of children reading this]

The Muppet Doo-Doo Post

Last weekend Jen and I got to meet Karen Prell and Brian Henson, and it was beyond amazing. I say this both to brag (WE MET KAREN PRELL AND BRIAN HENSON YOU GUYS) and to explain why I have Muppets on the brain.

(Btw, "Muppets On The Brain" is the name of my Lady Gaga cover band.)

So.
Please to enjoy this Muppet-themed sing-along.

Ahem.
Hem. Hem.
