I am so going to be that mom. 

My children will have the coolest treats into school for their birthdays. 

I will take any opportunity to parade my cupcaking talents through their kindergarten classroom.

I am not above winning over first-graders with treats in the shape of animals or seasonal goodies.

It’s like taking candy from a baby.  Or in my case, giving candy to babies.

And as you can see, I know no modesty, and want to share brag about my latest success with you guys.  ;)

Meet my turkey army! 

I made these last year, and Lloyd’s niece and nephews swooned!  How could you not?!  They are chocolate cupcakes with chocolate frosting that look like the Thanksgiving mascot!

One of my fav bloggers, Holly made these the other night, too.

I love this guy- he’s like the Turkey Captain. 

I like his little mohawk!  He’s fancy.

The first thing the kids ask me whenever they see me is, “Auntie Liz, did you make cupcakes?!” 

It’s too easy to please those munchkins!

And so I am wishing you all a Happy Thanksgiving from me, Lloyd, and our honorary pets… well, until tomorrow, when there are turkey corpses chocolate fingerprints all over my kitchen table.
