April Fools!!! YUMMY
April Fool’s Day Treats – You Are Serving WHAT For Dinner?
By: Dine Without Whine April Fool’s Day is the perfect day to have fun with the meals you serve. Surprise your family on April 1st with these fun meal ideas.
Fake Hot Dogs And French Fries
Your kids will love fake hot dogs and French fries for lunch this April fools day. Peel a banana and spread peanut butter all over it to give it the appearance of a hot dog. Serve it in a hot dog bun with some strawberry preserve drizzled over the hotdog to make it look like ketchup.
For the fries, peel some apples and cut them into sticks resembling fresh fries. Roll them in a cinnamon and sugar mixture and bake them for 8 to 10 minutes in a preheated 400 F oven. Serve with a side of strawberry preserve as fake ketchup.
What a fun lunch.
Fool everyone in the family with these fun dinner and desert ideas. They won’t believe you are actually serving cake for dinner and spaghetti for dessert.
Cherry Cake Or Meatloaf?
Your Family will be in for a big surprise with this meatloaf cake.
Prepare your favorite meatloaf and bake it in two 9-inch cake pans. Reduce the cooking time from what you would usually cook it since the meatloaf cake is thinner.
While the meatloaf cakes are baking, prepare some creamy mashed potatoes. Spread a layer of mashed potatoes on one of the cakes and top it with the second one. Use the remaining mashed potatoes to “frost” your cake. Cut a few cherry tomatoes in half and use them to decorate the top.
Serve Spaghetti As Desert
Since your serving cake for dinner, it only makes sense to eat spaghetti for dessert. Put a slice of pound cake on a plate. Spoon some softened ice cream in a pastry bag with a thin round tip. Pipe the ice cream over the pound cake in a swirly motion to resemble spaghetti noodles. Freeze for about 15-20 minutes to allow the ice cream to harden back up. Top with strawberry jam as tomato sauce and a few coconut flakes to resemble Parmesan cheese.
Don’t Forget The Drinks
Meals like these deserve a fun twist on a beverage as well. Prepare some lemon Jello and pour it into glasses. Add a straw and let it set. It will look just like a glass of lemonade. You can even decorate the glass with a slice of lemon.
Have fun with these creative April Fool’s recipes this April 1st. They are sure to make your family smile. Enjoy!

For those of you looking forward to Easter time, the one thing that makes Easter very special are decorated Easter cookies. Just like Christmas cookies have become synonymous with Christmas time, so have Easter cookies become a part of Easter tradition. There are plenty of great ways to honor the Easter season and embellished Easter cookies are just one of them. Here are some tips on putting smiles on the faces of your kids or friends this Easter season.
Decorated Easter Cookies Come in All Kinds of Shapes and Sizes
Decorated Easter cookies can come in all kinds of shapes and sizes and if you can imagine it you can truly make it. For most people Easter is associated with bunnies, rabbits, chicks, lambs and Easter eggs. For the most part you can generally find all these shapes and more in the form of cookie cutters.
Cookie cutters are frequently easy to purchase at almost any discount shops, grocers, and craft shops. Or you can frequently design them yourself- you just need some pliable metal and an idea. If you do not have a cookie cutter, no big deal. In fact many people that are artistically inclined choose to cut their own shapes out of cookie dough by hand, without the use of any cookie cutter.
Decorated Easter Cookies Start Out with Scrumptious Cookie Dough
The most essential thing about the adorned Easter cookies that you make is that they need to taste just as awesome as they look. No one likes an awful tasting cookie. For many chefs, a tasty cookie starts out with delicious cookie dough. Yes, you can purchase the dough already pre-made and ready to cut, but for the purists out there, start with a family recipe that is either chocolate chip or of the sugar cookie nature.
Decorate Your Cookie Using the Accessories of the Trade
It's easy to adorn your Easter cookies, just make sure you have all the tools of the trade. They usually involve, food coloring, colored frosting, sprinkles, delicious candies such as licorice, M& M’s, nuts, marshmallows, etc. Once you have gotten the cookie shape, let yourself or your little ones use their creative magic to make beautifully decorated Easter cookies. You can find food coloring and many cool decorating accessories at your local grocer. You can even purchase ready-made Easter embellishments to add to your cookies, cakes or Easter eggs.
Show Off Your Cookies
Once your newly designed Easter cookies are complete, make sure to show them off to the rest of the family and even give them away to your coworkers and friends. Enjoy the Easter spirit by arranging your yummy and beautiful embellished Easter cookies.
One original trick is to take some pictures of your adorned Easter cookies and include them in your annual Easter scrapbook, this way you can always look back at the delicious and colorful adorned Easter cookies that you have made.
You can also type the cookie recipe on a pretty note card and include a photo of your Easter cookies to give to family and coworkers. Many people cherish handmade gifts, especially when it's a beloved family recipe.
If you are looking to magnify your gratification of Easter this year, take part in creating decorated Easter cookies.

Would you drive your car for 30, 40 or 50 years without giving it an oil change? Our bodies are like a much more finely tuned engine, some of us never give a second thought to its inner calibrations. By going on a cleanse, it is like we are giving our body a 20,000 mile tune-up -- something that every mechanic knows makes good sense. We offer you an opportunity to gently but deeply cleanse your earthly transportation -- physically, mentally and spiritually. Through the use of a variety of cleansing techniques (from herbal teas to the master cleanse to Pranayam) we will cleanse the colon and other organs and clear the dust bunnies from the psyche!
