Muffin Tin Monday

Today for Muffin Tin Monday there was no theme. Normally, on no theme days I just throw whatever I happen to have into the tin and call it Muffin Tin Monday. Actually, even when there is a theme, I almost never plan ahead, at least not enough to make a special shopping trip for it. But today, I was searching MTM archives so that I can actually pick up certain things at the store for next weeks copy cat theme, since I'll have to copy someone and may not have in my fridge what they have.



While I was doing my search I found a TON of things that I wanted to do, and of course was having a hard time deciding which one to pick. THEN, I saw the royalty theme and on it was this really yummy looking potato. Ummmmmm... I'm kinda in the mood for a baked potato. OH, I have potatoes that REALLY need to be used. Oh, let's make that today! So that set into action a precopy cat tin!





First I let the kiddos make crowns.







Then they played a game of princess memory.



Then it was time for the royal precopy cat muffin cup meal!


I copied The Sound You Hear Is Living. Much to my hurriedness and dismay, I did not read her post, just looked at it on MTM and said oh I can do that. I wish I would have read it and followed her King Athur story.




The kids LOVED it!!



It does help that they really do love baked potatoes. Oh, I also added steamed broccoli to mine...




Lyssy loved drinking from my special glasses.




Aidman Loved the sword!

So cute - I love the sword too! Froglet may be too small to do this one just yet but I'll file it for future reference.

Wow...looks like a party too. That's a very great way to make a baked potato about 50 times more fun than it usually is. :)
