See the gingerbread fairies, sugar-plums, jelly-beans, gum drops and Necco wafers,
Dance the minuet,
With the candied cherries, marshmellows, peppermints, candy-canes,
As they pirouette,
See the GINGERBREAD PRINCESS curtsying, gracefully, beautifully,
Swaying to the tune…
Music in the air (so entrancing)
Flowers in her hair (as she’s dancing)
Love is everywhere
‘Neath the yellow frosted gingerbread moon.

There she goes now, on her toes now,
To her gingerbread home.

OMG! OMG! Babeh cupcake on a cupcake alert! If that eensy choco swissroll could say something he’d be all, “ehn…I wants a butterfly too!”

Kung Foodie Fried Cheerios

1/4 c butter
4 c Cheerios (plain only)

Melt butter in frying pan. Add Cheerios and saute until brown. Salt to taste.

This is something dad taught me way back when…back when I wore bell bottom jeans and loved skateboarding, back when I had feathered hair and listened to Queen albums over and over. Oh how them’s were the days! Dad was the emperor of all things bad for you. He bought us Coca-cola in the bottle and beef jerky every weekend and probably would have been happy to take us to Mickey D’s every night if mom wasn’t around. But the best was when he made us fried cheerios and watched Saturday morning cartoons with us. Cause you know kids seriously heart fried cheerios.
