It seemed like a good idea at the time.


It happens every year. I see a cute magazine photo and decide to try to duplicate it at home. The project in question this year was "bug cupcakes". What a fun project for the children to make one afternoon. But sadly each year I completely forget that someone makes 100K a year to artfully design and create fun to do at-home projects that are completely impossible to actually make at home. First of all it is impossible to actually find the "easy to find" ingredients at any store. Secondly the project is difficult for an average adult to complete and not even a possibility for a child. And the magazine article never mentions that your kitchen will be a complete disaster when you are finished. Here are our results. Enjoy.

  1. I think Mama's cupcakes look pretty darn similar to the ones in the magazine. WOW! TS from MSP
