Father's Day Baking

Crumpet and I do a lot of baking together. He loves the stirring and tossing of the ingredients all over the kitchen. He loves the decorating. The tasting is his favorite. We made lawnmower cupcakes for Father's Day this year. It's an idea I got from Family Fun magazine. You frost the cupcakes and dunk them in green tinted coconut for grass. Then you make lawnmowers from Hershey's nuggets, M&Ms and licorice. Crumpet just kept shouting "cupcake, cupcake" and going berserk throughout the decorating process. I finally fed him one, and we had peace!
