Welcome! I'm Brandy, mother to 5 darling kiddos and a cute black lab named Toby. My husband is in the Coast Guard so we've lived all over the place, turning each house into a home. I love baking, sewing, making cute things with my kids, and sharing what I've learned with all of you!
Angry Bird Sandwiches
You can only read this post if you promise not to laugh….too hard. I wasn’t sure if I was going to share this since they are the craziest little angry bird sandwiches ever, but the kids and their friends LOVED them. Seriously thought they were the best sandwiches ever….even with cheese eyebrows on top of strawberry jam and couldn’t stop talking about them. Dallin even said to his buddy, “Did you know that my mom used to be a waitress? She knows how to do restaurant stuff.” I didn’t tell him that I didn’t learn how to make sandwiches during college and when I waited tables, but that’s ok. I’m glad he was proud of his mama. It was sweet.
I didn’t have much time to think about these. Ruby was going to wake up from her nap soon and I wanted to make something fun for the kids after they went swimming.
I just cut out circles from bread with a mason jar, made the sandwiches, and then covered the top with jam for the pb&j ones and cheese for the meat & cheese ones. Then trimmed the yellow bird to a triangle. The eyes are marshmallows and mini m&ms and the beaks are cheese as well. The top feathers are gummies and the black eye brows are from a food pen. Everything was just raided from our pantry….our very empty pantry since I refuse to go shopping before we move except for fresh stuff!
That’s about it.
Ok, I guess you can laugh if you want to. The picture makes me laugh 🙂
