I am not a big fan of April Fools Day or pranks in general. Maybe I had some mean spirited pranks pulled on me as a child that have damaged my psyche forever. Maybe I was born without a prank appreciation gene. Who knows. So getting in the spirit of our Friday Frivolity host theme was a bit challenging for me. In the end I opted for Fun Faux Foods.
Nothing mean spirited like the Chocolate Pie in The Help. Just fun foods that look like one thing but are actually another.
Start off the day with a breakfast of poached eggs (yogurt and a peach), frozen cereal and undrinkable juice (gelatin) from Clean and Scentsible.
Alphabet Soup (pudding with cereal letters) from Party Pinching
A whole chicken meal complete with fried chicken (rice krispies treats), corn on the cob (candy corn) and baked beans (pudding and candy) from Kitchen Fun with My 3 Sons.
Meatloaf Cupcakes with Mashed Potato Icing from Frosting and a Smile.
Pepperoni Jalapeno and Jelly Bean Pizza with Anchovies from That Recipe (that's me in case you didn't know)

The Hosts:
Sarah Eliza is on a mission to Devastate Boredom by living a life full of all of her favorite things... friendship and connection, laughter, books and music, furbaby love, minimalism, wellness pursuits, Paleo-ish cooking, and on and on! Sarah talks about adult coloring books, puppy potty bags and Downton Abbey in her latest post.
Lisa is an awesomely hilarious and authentic writer who marches to her own drum on her blog Syncopated Mama, providing an "un-labelly spot" for all the happily off-beat folks out there who have been wishing to find kindred spirits. She shares her adventures building a natural home, teaching her adorbs daughter, establishing and refining positive communication skills, camping, creating, cooking, and so much more! In her ongoing Passport to Fun Date Night series, she created an Irish themed date night. So many fun ideas.
Jessica is an amazingly funny and smart blogger from Wales who writes on a whole range of topics -- from entertaining vintage nostalgia, to technology tutorials, to book reviews, to raising her adorable munchkin, and so much more on Babi a Fi! She has a hysterically accurate (for me at least) list of 10 Signs You Know You Are a Blogger every Blogger will identify with.
Now time for the new stuff!
