a little bit about lots of things sesame magic opening day at sesame place posted may 6 2013 by queenvanna categories uncategorized tags 2013 april day magic opening opening day parade place sesame sesame place summer vacation maybe it was because it was opening day or maybe it was because i worry in my heart that big girl is going to look at me one day soon and be like mom i m all grown out of this stuff now but everything seemed extra magical and special that saturday at sesame place a little girl maybe 4 years old sat next to me before the evening parade she had a new abby caddaby plushy from one of the gift shops that she was very happy to show me probably because i was wearing my abby visor and puffs she asked do you think she s real i answered of course i do she s right in your hands and we ll see her in the parade i swear that little girl was planted there to have that conversation with me sesame magic has always been really real to me she was a chatty little one she engaged all of us on the long drive home i thought more about sesame magic and how it might seem to my girls when i was 5 my favorite sesame street bit was bert doing the er er pigeon how could he dance like that how could see his shoes how does that work like how it is that no matter how crowded the park is what part of the line we are in this girl gets whatever horse she wants every single time how a couple years ago the girls decided they wanted to catch an abby poof that launches from one of the floats in the parade and since then we ve caught at least one for each girl every time we ve visited this time we caught three and shared one with our little friend she was speechless for a second this time it seemed like the staff at sesame place was extra magical too the girl at ernie s bed bounce played tag with the big kids when it was their turn it was cool to give the kids a little structure and focus instead of aimlessly bouncing which is fine too but you know i think little girl took this pic it was on their camera a whole gang of workers played red light green light and duck duck goose before the evening parade it was wonderful rather than just sitting and asking every 32 seconds when the parade would start everybody got a chance to stay busy the time went by quickly the girls were lucky enough to be chosen to dance in the parade too i swear there is no trick to this they just get picked like fairly often there must be something about them that catches the dancers eyes there s a link here http www youtube com watch v alnqstrp7ig there was a bit of a free for all when some streamers popped out into the crowd towards the end lots of little kids ran into the parade path the dancers motioned to hold back the floats and everyone got back to their parents big and little girl hadn t moved from our spot they know after all this time not step into the parade the kid that chose them to dance saw them standing there once the parade started up again and handed them a scoop of the streamers a simple gesture but i think that was magic to my girls that look on big girl s face i want that magic forever comments be the first to comment carrot in a cake carrot cake posted april 1 2013 by queenvanna categories babycakes beanie foooooood i saw it on pinterest tags 2013 bunny cake carrot chocolate cupcakes dessert easter garden garden party glaze hidden orange party queen says queenvanna queenvannacreations rabbit tea tea party test so easter is said and done but i m not ready to move on just yet rather than call this an easter cake i ll call it a springtime it s 60 degrees outside yay cake i made white cake batter and tinted it orange baked it on a cookie sheet that was roughly the size of a jelly roll pan i don t know what a jelly roll pan actually is i found a measurement online and wung it so orange tinted cake in a fairly large flat pan it took 18 20 minutes to cook and mine was not uniformly flat it raised up in the center some but it worked out fine for me i used a carrot shaped cookie cutter and cut out as many carrots as i could get here starts the pictures i put a little chocolate cake batter in the bottom of the pan so they d stand up nicely and lined the bottom of a long loaf pan with the carrots pointy sides up then i added the rest of the cake batter and then maybe 3 4 of another cake batter the loaf pan is long it s a lot of cake i had enough batter left to make 6 little cupcakes too we decided since this was a lot of cake and we wouldn t be able to get through it all before it went stale we d cut it in half and freeze part for next time we need some tasty cake so heeeeere s the big carrot reveal when you turn it out of the pan the carrots are right side up again big girl helped decorate the top she put a layer of chocolate glaze that slowly oozed over the sides to look a little like shiny scrumptious mud then she layered some crushed oreos on top while the glaze was still wet and just a small handful of green sprinkles to look like grass trying to peek through little girl used a similar decorating technique on the cupcakes the carrot leaves were melted candy wafers put in a plastic or piping bag and squirted out on to foil to make the leafy shape we slit starter holes for those then poked em right in and added just one small bunny cupcake pic not only it is adorable but everyone that s tried it the girls and hubs has said yum i m thinking this is a great springtime dessert or for a garden or tea party there s lots of ways we could decorate the top with chocolates or candy flowers and of course i m pondering other things we can plant inside comments 3 comments easter roundup posted march 31 2013 by queenvanna categories babycakes beanie foooooood she s so crafty the girls tags 2013 bunny craft easter eggs icecubes pancakes project rabbit roundup i had a plan i had a schedule i had easter figured out then i needed an antibiotic for a sinus infection that made me sick to my stomach like a lot and i lost all of saturday and a large part of easter itself i am on the mend i ll show you what were were working on we colored eggs little girl made a bunny paper chain we saw the easter bunny the girls were a little bummed that we didn t dress for the occassion but refer to the last few posts here where it s been 40 degrees in late march connecticut the bunny was still happy to see them our weekend featured lots of bunnies of all shapes and sizes and materials food games icecubes in mom s gatorade we had planned to host family brunch at our house we had started a several step dessert more on that tomorrow and the girls were mad that there was to be no party with mom being under the weather we finished making the dessert and froze some for when we could see the family and moods were calmed until the sugar kicked in comments 1 comment the most adorable handmade brag book you ll ever make posted march 28 2013 by queenvanna categories sesame she s so crafty the girls workie workie tags how to album book brag bragbook craft easy elmo glassine mini pebbles place scrapbook scrapbooking sesame sesame place simple tutorial vacation i work in a scrapbook store i ve worked there since i was barely out of college that s a really long time while i m there i look for ways to use supplies in different ways scrapbooking is awesome i just want to do other stuff sometimes you understand i m sure a couple weeks ago we got these cute bags and i immediately made this little spring brag book i was going to make a couple to give to the grandmas for easter since i took some really cute pictures of the girls in their dresses and they probably won t wear their dresses for easter because it s 40 degrees outside connecticut i posted these photos on the store s facebook page and got a handful of questions about how i made it so i ll show you here it s just 2 bags they re lined up with openings on opposite ends fold them together in half down the center then punch 2 holes away from the edges in the fold line tie some string or ribbon through the holes to hold the booklet together then embellish as your heart desires using 2 little bags you have space for a front and back cover and 6 pictures inside then if you have extra pictures or notes you can tuck them in the little open sides i printed these pictures as wallet size at a place that rhymes with fal mart and put just a tiny edge of a matte on them they fit perfectly it s a wonderful little brag book to show off a trip to elmo s house pictures are from sesame place breakfast with elmo and friends summer 2012 comments 3 comments late winter early easter posted march 27 2013 by queenvanna categories babycakes beanie home sweet home tags 2013 activity chalk children easter pavement sidewalk spring welcome winter so this happened on march 19 absolutely ridiculous and my easter decorations are chilling out in the late march snow if there s some good news it s that it s lighter longer and the pavement is nice and clear for sidewalk chalk we are so ready to welcome spring comments 1 comment american girl uneven bars posted march 17 2013 by queenvanna categories babycakes beanie home sweet home she s so crafty the girls tags activity alice american american girl bars diy doll exercise fun girl gym gymnastics kit make it yourself uneven my girls weren t interested in dolls until fairly recently my mother in law bought them american girl dolls a couple christmases ago and i kinda thought it was a bad call because they d rarely ever played with dolls up til then lately the dolls are about all they ve been playing with they ll mix and match their clothes they ll create adventures for them to go on and little girl s haircut is modelled after her doll kit through some random clicks on someone s tablet the other day we found youtube videos on how to make handmade toys and games for the dolls when we saw gymnastics equipment we figured we needed to get in on that action ta da uneven bars made out of plumber s piping the pieces fit together easily enough that even the 6 year old can manage it play gets a little rough so hubs said he ll glue the pieces so it doesn t fall apart while the dolls are swinging on it that gets in the way of playing all it consists of is piping cut down to 2 18 2 15 and 4 12 pieces 4 t joints and 4 elbow joints pop it all together and voila we use ponytail holders looped on the bars and around the dolls wrists and they hang on pretty well we saw ones that had been spray painted but i was nervous about the paint wearing off on the plastic parts of the dolls maybe i ll add some duct tape or fun patterned washi tape for now the girls are happy as little clams with it just the way it is well other than they ve added a folded up baby blanket underneath to use as a mat and big girl s doll is wearing a horse riding helmet now they love it the way it is comments 6 comments watch this space posted march 15 2013 by
