April Fool's Day FOOD

For some reason, we never really celebrated April Fool's Day until a few years ago.  Now we're having the best time with our "funny food."



This year, I'm serving "sundaes" for dinner....



Kiddo is going to be so disappointed when he realizes we are not having ice cream for dinner, but that it is, in fact, mashed potatoes and gravy. 



{To make things super easy, we're using instant mashed potatoes and jarred gravy.  I know, I know...not the healthiest, but I won't tell if you won't.}



And how cute is that "cherry?"  I was SO excited to find that jar of Peppadew peppers at the grocery store! I might have squealed.



Here are a few blasts from April Fool's past:



Mashed Potato Cupcakes...



{I think these are my favorite.}



Meatloaf Cupcakes (yes, those are meat cakes, my friends)...







Spaghetti & Meatball Cupcakes...





 I also love these ideas and am filing them away for next year:



Macaron "sliders" from One Vanilla Bean

"Grilled Cheese" from Family Fun (will be in kiddo's lunchbox tomorrow)

Candy-filled Fruit Cup from Come Together Kids

"Lasagna" from Food Network

Candy Sushi from La Casserole Carree (in French, oo-la-la)

Ducky Punch (not an April Fool's post, but I still think it would be great) from TidyMom

"Fakin' and Eggs" from Making Memories (sold by the name alone!)



Do you have any April Fool's FOOD ideas?  I wanna hear 'em.
