The Meatloaf Cupcake


"April Fools"

I grew up in a family full of laughter and pranks. So in hopes to carry on the family tradition, I decided to play an April Fools joke on my 5 year old little guy.

I told him before school that we were having cupcakes for dinner. He was so excited!  When he got off the bus later that afternoon, the first thing he said "Mommy, what kind of cupcakes are we having for dinner?"  I giggled and told him that I would tell him when we go home.

Well, needless to say, his first reaction was NOT full of laughter when he saw a meatloaf cupcake with mashed potatoes sprinkled with peas on his dinner plate.  But after his meltdown, we both laughed and he thought it was a REALLY cool idea!!

I know... it was mean but looking back... it is one of our favorite cupcake "Sweetened Memories".
