If Looks Were Everything

What is that?
:::
Dark Chocolate Fudge with Vanilla Frosting.
::
My Mom bought stencils from Michael's.
Stencils for Christmas baking. Trees, wreath, etc.
They are supposed to work with colored sugar.
She said they did not. Proof is in the picture.
::::
Is there anything I can do with this now?
She asked me, in regards to the "shapes" left by the not so cool stencils.
She bustled about in a couple drawers.
Layed a cookie cutter down,
And shook her sprinkles.
Into a tree, two stars, and an upside down candy cane.
::
She handed me a fork and said,
Well I'm glad I decided to practice Christmas!
:::::
Me too. Because if this was her actual Christmas cake, oh man!
I love my Mom and her practice cake was yummy ;)

My arm was batted away as I captured these fabulous decorations.

Oh man, I'm glad she practiced too :) I always try to make cute desserts that don't turn out how I envisioned….except it’s on the day of the event. I should practice, but I don’t want to eat all those extra sweets!
