I'm making the kid happy. Here are the cupcakes he'll take to sunset park children's school: Thomas!
I know, I know, it looks impressive. But it really wasn't that hard. I started with Oreos (well, the Paul Newman's kind). Piped thomas faces on with (shhh: store bought) icing. I got candy "eyes" from the cake supply place, (they also have them at Party City). That made life much easier too. Also that I did this part several days ahead, to avoid last minute stress.

I totally love you for how simple these cupcakes are. Realised I should bake something for my friends birthday party tonight and he loves Thomas but every recipe online is impossibly complicated. I believe you have saved me.
Thank you for posting! Out of curiosity, what did you do with the leftover cookie parts?
Johanna - Barbara ten Broeke - Yannie's mom - trying to reach you through Facebook or your Blog. I want to put together a small 50th birthday party for Yannie in the city. A surprise party. May 24, Friday, maybe around 5-8 or 9 pm. Would you be able to join us? I know Yannie has not been diligent about keeping up contacts but we talk frequently about Barnard. I think Maria is in CA,
Danielle ? and the lovely roommate who had a scar on her arm and whose brother tragically passed away. Senior moment - I can't remember her name - I think she lives in the city or like you, nearby. Who else? Kindest regards, Barbara ten Broeke, 732-930-1776 barbaratenbroeke@gmail.com
Can you take down my comment after you have read it? Don't want to take chances on spoiling a surprise :)
