This little piggy...

OK, first I have to state for the record that I have my cousin Libby to blame for this. Téa saw Libby's blog with a picture of the really cute cupcakes she made for her daughter's birthday. Well, I got around to asking Téa how we should decorate the cupcakes for her party since it's at Kangaroo Zoo and they don't allow food (unless you want to spend $150 to rent a room...right). She remembered the cute little piggy cupcakes and said she wanted those. OK, that's do-able, right? I only have to make 7 of them. Well, a few days later she says she wants me to bring treats to her classroom on her birthday as well so I figured cupcakes are easy. Wrong! Not when your daughter says she has to have piggy cupcakes for her class too. "How many do I have to make, Téa?" I asked. "Just 24, Mom." Ohhhh...kayyyy. I managed to do it, though. And they turned out alright in the end. I gave up on trying to make all the ears pink so I just used red and orange starbursts. Didn't want to buy another bag just to have enough pink ones. Now I just have to make the ones for the party tonight.


I made a bigger cupcake (though you can't really tell) for Téa's teacher. One Mama pig with all her 24 piglets.
