Thanksgiving Treat
I brought these to church yesterday for my laurels and it was a hit…everyone was stopping me in the halls to look at them (and the primary kids MAULED me after church…seruiously.) I thought it was a fun, and REALLY easy thing to do for Thanksgiving if you have a bunch of kids coming over…or even fun for just your family to make. I got it out of a parenting magazine, so it wasn’t my idea…but they turned out cuter than I thought! You use half an Oreo for the bottom, put a glob of frosting on the bottom of another whole Oreo then stick that on the half. Use a malt ball for the head, jam some candy corns into the Oreo frosting and then break off the tip of a candy corn and frost-glue it onto the malt ball for a beak. Ta-da! I used the holiday oreos and then Christmas and normal colored candy corns. Fun, cheap, easy.

So cute. You should submit the idea to Cousin Jennifer’s crafting website. They are always looking for fun ideas. Fun food projects can be a craft, right? Wish you were bringing a plate of these to our Thanksgiving table this year. We will miss you. But there will be other years, I’m sure.
