Chinese New Year

By -
We had plans of spending our Chinese New Year with our local Chinese Adoption group at a local restaurant but instead we stayed home and indoors.
This is why! 
 The get-together was canceled and we hope to be able to make in a few weeks.
So instead of dressing in our Chinese silks to go play with some friends we dressed in Elmo and watched a little Winnie the Pooh, Chloe's newest love.  


We also made Dragon cookies (for the year of the dragon) for our friends at daycare.  I think we forgot to take a picture of the finished product but we used a cat cookie cutter to make a dragon face and Daddy decorated each one differently.  They turned out really neat.

Jim did some great posts with pictures from our trip to China last year.  If you don't follow his blog you might want to go over and take a look.  I am so happy to have had a personal photographer on that trip :)  planetruth

Cake-Pops?

I saw this cute book on cake pops and thought that can't be that hard, yeah right! I thought hey Chloe's Birthday is coming up and just look at all the cute holiday ones.  This could become a fun family baking event.  AND THAT IS WHAT I GET FOR THINKING!   I baked a cake last night.  I read the instructions twice and today at nap time I gathered the supplies and dug in.  It all seemed to go well until the dipping.  I had one panda suicide right off the stick he must have known his fate was never to be as cute as the pictures in the book.  I switched to cupcakes thinking they would be easier and it was but they still had a longing, they longed to be cupcakes. On the upside they are yummy! I might try again, has anyone made these before?  Any tricks to make the dipping go easier?
