Over at Muffin Tin Mom, there are no longer going to be official themes. Michelle will be posting some monthly theme suggestions, so I guess I will have have to get my creative thinking hat on.
In honor of the 14 inches of new snow over the last 24 hours, we decided to do a Snow Storm themed muffin tin today.
1. Snowy Trees (cauliflower)
2 Banana Snowman (chocolate chips and pretzels for details)
3. Cheeseflake (mozzarella)
4. Snowbanks (tapioca pudding)
5. Snowballs (grapes with sugar)
6. Breaded Tilapia (I couldn't think of a creative snowy name for fish....so it is just tilapia)
Also a side of tartar sauce for both girls.
E went for the snowman first, C went for the tilapia. I was surprised that C wanted to eat her fish, since the hubs deviated from our menu plan today and instead of ham/cheese pita, made fish sticks and fries for the girls. (I found this out when I got home from work). But she loves fish, and ate all of her tilapia.
Another thing to note...I mentioned before that Andy is currently laid off, thus is home taking care of the girls. I got home from work today, and the first thing I noticed was that he had dressed C in one of E's dresses, thinking it was "one of those half-shirt, half-dress things that you wear with leggings". We had a good laugh over that one. It actually looked kind of cute with leggings...but he probably had a heck of a time getting that size 12mo turtleneck over C's big melon!!

Such a cute theme for a muffin tin. My husband does the same thing with the clothes. I guess the size tags mean nothing to them, lol!

What cute ideas! Love the snowmen especially!
And my sister will put anything on her daughters that she can cram onto their heads or butts. Sleeves or legs too short? Save it for summer or around the house. Her oldest just turned 4, and the NEWBORN socks were just taken out of her drawer recently, since they can no longer stretch to cover the entire toe-to-heel. Gah!
