A Bunny on a Stick Party... and...Wordless Wednesday

Tonight I am doing a twofer...Barb's Bunny on a Stick Show 'n Tell and Dixie's Wordless Wednesday!


First, I am showing you my tricks with the ever popular Pier 1 bunny on a stick. Be sure to swing by Grits and Glamour to see what the bunnies are doing and to take a peek at Barb's wonderful blog! Now, if you follow my blog, you may be wondering what else is left to do because...

I showed you how I made my bunny...


...and I featured it in my Spring tablescape...



....and also on my Spring mantel! So I was thinking...what else can I do with the bunnies...?? Then, it dawned on me...


I can make bunny on a stick cookies!! So, I stopped by Walmart to pick up the ingredients and to hunt a leaping bunny cookie cutter! Success!


Soooo... I let the cookie dough soften a little and then rolled it out. I suppose I could have made homemade cookie dough...but, I like this kind...even better than the Pillsbury brand. Ohh...I see a few little extra edges looking too tiny to bother to roll out again. Better eat those. Mmmm...I love cookie dough!


Next, I sprinkled the cookies with green sugar and followed the directions on the package to bake them. Hey...these are looking pretty cute, huh? So far, so good!


When they were done, I quickly put a pretzel stick in the soft cookies to be the "stick." Wow! I am surprised...this part actually worked, but I had to work fast!


And here they are...my bunny on a stick cookies for our show 'n tell party! Would you like one?


Soooo....what do you think? OK...so maybe they do look more like trees! lol Did you have a bite yet? Hey, these aren't bad!...snarf, snarf, snarf!!
Be sure to stop by Barb's to join the party and see what the bunnies are doing!


Welcome to another Wordless Wednesday with our hostess with the mostest, Miss Dixie from way down there in French Lique, Texas! Be sure to visit her wonderful blog to see what she's up to this week and to get a list of who's playing! And while you are at it, find out how to join in the fun!
Today is April first, and in honor of the occasion, a mysterious tall, dark and handsome stranger is taking me out for dinner.....





April Fool!!!
Baby Kitty thought that was a good one!
Be sure to stop by Dixie's to see some more April Fool jokes and enjoy a little laugh!

Ok - that is clevah! Combining your spring party snack with bunny on a stick show 'n tell. Too, too cute. I was gonna use him as a cake topper, but ran out of time today. Maybe another day.

You are too funny with your kitty pics. That is hilarious. I knew I liked you - you have my warped sense of humor. Thanks for sharing in the fun.

ps - your date was too good to be true. He did not look like the type to be a one-woman kinda man.
Those Tom Selleck types never are. Sorry.

:-D

Blondie's Journal said...

Debbie,

You have such a wicked sense of humor and your kitties never fail to get to me!! Baby Kitty sort of looks like the old Frito Bandito!! Oh my, I have been giggling for the last 5 minutes.

Your edible Bunny on a Stick was a very original idea. They did sort of look like trees, but you said it first!! ;-)

Happy April 1st!!!!

xoxo
Jane

Cynthia said...

Hi Debbie,
I think silver lake was when they had moved on to South Dakota. The area around Pepin has some very big woods and when you see the cabin you can imagine what it was like for them. Cindy

Dixie said...

Debbie... I just bet a handsome grandson will be helping you with those bunny cookies... how cute!

and baby kitty.. what a character... I love that one! LOL

blessings... Dixie

Mama said...

I THINK BABY KITTY STOLE THE SHOW...THAT WAS JUST TOO FUNNY....FOR THOSE WHO DO NOT HAVE A CAT, THEY CAN'T APPRECIATE THE TALENT OF A LAUGHING CAT...LOL

Hi Debbie!
I popped over here from Grits and Glamour, via Bella Vista. Love your posts, your sense of humor and of course your very talented "Staff!"
Your 'Kitty' is almost identical to our 'Kitty-Boy', who passed away last November. The only difference is Kitty-Boy had a perfect solid black nose.

You have a new follower, Madame~~

Have a lovely day and enjoy your dinner with Romeo~♥

~Lynn
