Easter Fail

So...this Easter break was about spending time with my family
and trying the recipes I've shared with all of you
If I expect you to try them, I might as well try them myself first

Step 1: Gather Ingredients
Ok, so this was easy
Nailed It!!

Step 2: Preheat Oven
So far so good

Step 3: Mix Ingredients, Fill Cupcake Tins
Smooth Sailing
so far

Step 4: Remove From Oven
Funfetti Cupcakes- sooo yummyyy
Up to this point, I thought I'd been doing well
I mean nothing had caught on fire
All I had left to do was frost them and decorate...

Step 5: SHEEP!!
Ok, so maybe I was being a bit ambitious when I thought I could handle
these "simple" cupcakes
I had to have people guess what they were
Yeah, not once did someone say sheep
....FAIL

SOOO, I had to try and spare the rest of my creative dignity
five jelly beans and a flower was born
Clearly flowers are my specialty
and
sheep are sadly not :(

Tonight though,
 I did retaliate and conquer a cake
I won't be brought down by baked goods
Woohooo 
Easy Peasy Lemon Squeezy
or strawberry in this case
My dad approved
I can go to bed feeling accomplished

And at Easter dinner, I did have a four year old tell me how "cool" and "pretty"
my cupcakes were.
Sounds like a success to me :)
