Rudolph, The Scrappy Lookin’ Reindeer

In keeping with my promise to share successes and failures with you, I think it’s time to tell you what I did to Rudolph. This happened at Christmas, but I have dealt with it and I’m ready to talk about it now.

I aim fairly low on Pinterest. Sure, there are some amazingly lovely ways to recycle waxed paper into a woven tablecloth but I am never going do it. So I don’t pin it.

I did think I could handle some stinking pancakes though. Look at how cute!

Until I got ahold of it, anyway.

I gave my children the option to say no, but they felt bad for me and ate what they could; mainly the banana and chocolate chip eyes. strawberry noses, and bacon antlers.

Mommy? Why does the reindeer look like that?
‘Cause he got the mange, baby.

Don’t try this at home.

    Oh my….what a laugh! I’m glad other people have had flops like me! (My mom had them all the time, but they usually tasted great!) Thanks for posting it, it was fun!

    = ) I actually like yours better! They are much more fitting. They look like stressed out Rudolphs. I look at the first one, and it stresses me out! I look at the second one and smile thinking…I can do that! They are real! Besides, don’t ya just love the way that kids are so forgiving and love you just for the attempt, phew. And just look at alll the smiles and laughter that you put in peoples hearts because you were brave enough to share your ‘realness’! = )
