I can make that!

Tulip’s fourth birthday is coming up in a bit over a month, and I’m thinking about presents. One of the only things she has asked for is toy lemons for her kitchen, so I’ve been shopping around. Haba makes some pretty wooden ones that I’ll probably order soon, but looking at those got me thinking about her toy food. It was a gift when she was very little, and she has played it nearly to death. Almost weekly, I find a piece or two that is worn out and sneak it into the trash. I’d like to replace it with wooden food. She doesn’t need as much wooden food as she has plastic, but I’d like to get her some variety, and that would add up very quickly. Instead of buying tons of different stuff, I’ve found a few things that she actually eats that I could make to go with whatever I end up buying.
Knitted Cupcakes: I could probably manage one or two of these, and I think she’d like them.
Farafel Pasta: I read in a blog recently about crafty moms sniffing at expensive stuff and saying that they could make it for 30 cents. I think i can make this for 17 cents, which is what a sheet of felt costs at my craft store. ![]()
