Cast your votes!



After one disaster-batch of cupcakes which I can only attribute to Duncan Hines mistakenly placing a bag of angel food cake mix in the box labeled "Rich Butter Golden Recipe", I've turned out two different owl-prototypes for the upcoming birthday bash. Zoey painstakingly placed all the cupcake liners in the muffin trays, then decided she was done "helping". I was going to wait for her to wake up from her nap to help frost them, but then, like some kind of crazy-crafts-addict, I thought "well, I'll just do the base layer of frosting, then I'll wait for her to get up". Then I thought the Oreos really should be placed on the frosting before it dries. Ditto for the Gummi Savers. And before I knew it, I had completed all 24 cupcakes. And it was fun.

So let me know what you think! Should we have snow owls for the party (which I have to say were slightly easier to make), or the garden-variety tree owl? Post your vote now!

They are both totally cute, but I really like the snow owls! So fuzzy and adorable!

I like the normal owl one better, the first one is kinda scary. :)

Oooo, they are both so cute. Of course, I would want to eat the Oreo cookie one first. Maybe you should make some of each.....and then mail some to us. Yum.

Tooth alert! Eli has two poking through now!

I have to agree with Tara. They're both totally adorable but I'd go with the snow owl! How cool! :)
