How We Ring In The Month Of April

April Fool's Day happened again this year. I decided to make rice krispie treat "chicken legs" and served that with vanilla ice cream with caramel sauce. The "butter" on top is just a yellow starburst. 
They had to eat all their dinner before they could get at this yummy dessert! Ok, I know this one is a fail. This pizza ring was supposed to look like a cake, and it didn't. The sauce seeped out everywhere, and the cheese looked sooo cheesy. Oh well. No one was fooled. 
For some reason I never plan ahead for this. I end up doing something every year, and yet, I'm always rushing to the store at the last minute. . I guess April just sneaks up on me. Since I didn't have cornflakes, I used raisin bran for the drumsticks, and had to sit and take out all the raisins. I dipped pretzel rods in white chocolate for the bone, and stuck mini marshmallows on the end. 
They do try to play along, bless their hearts. 


They all said, "Chicken, my favorite!" 
In fairness to me, I don't know that there's much I could do to trick Kara on April Fool's Day anymore. She is so suspicious. 
Evie said it was the best chicken she's ever eaten.
