Brielle is a big fan of Despicable Me, or as she calls it “Minions movie.” Let’s be real, Gru is a funny character, but the Minions steal the show! While she has watched her share of movies at home (broken into two parts as she’s never watched a full length movie in one sitting) we think it’s finally time she’s ready for that experience. We plan to take her next month while at our beach house, so to get her excited we baked up these Minion cupcakes!

Supplies:

  • Cupcakes with blue cupcake wrappers
  • Yellow icing (Vanilla with yellow food coloring will do!)
  • Regular OREO cookies
  • Mini OREO cookies
  • Chocolate chips
  • M&Ms
  • Black Icing

Spread yellow icing on the cupcakes.

Put OREO cookies on a plate and put in the microwave for all of 5 seconds. Twist slightly to cleanly remove the tops.

Place a regular sized OREO on top of the cupcakes and embellish the center with a brown M&M. Use black icing to draw a line on each side like their Minion goggles.

For the other designs, repeat the steps above but use two mini M&Ms and chocolate chips (with the pointed side down) to create the pupils of the eyes.

    It is such a great idea to use oreo’s for the eyes! My kids are on a big minion kick right now and I was looking for a cute and easy way to make a minion-themed treat but was stuck on how to make the eyes look good. Thanks for the inspiration!

#ad Last year was tough for so many reasons, but o #ad Last year was tough for so many reasons, but one of the bright spots for us was the first year of our backyard garden! We’d call my mom on video chat for advice, took turns watering and weeding it, and eventually enjoyed all the vegetables, herbs and flowers for months. 
.
We’re currently planning ahead for this year’s garden which involves sporting our mask whenever researching plant choices. I'm partnering with @choosenewjersey to remind you to #maskupnj and social distance yourselves when you’re not staying home.

Things are changing daily in our state, but you can keep yourself informed with the latest updates on COVID by visiting https://covid19.nj.gov and downloading the free app for info on symptoms and exposure notification.

Do you have any suggestions on easy to maintain plants for our garden?

My art major momma heart was pumped because I got to teach them a new painting technique - wet on wet watercolor! Plus, when you wet the canvas a few designs appear that you don't see at first glance.
