I also feel like I am meant to have kids just to make cute things/crafts with them.
I need to borrow some kids.

Source: tweaked from Once Upon a Plate (she used cream cheese, I used mozzarella balls)
Serves: As many as you want
Ingredients
Large black olives (for body)
Small black olives (for head)
Baby carrots
Mozzarella balls
Toothpicks
Directions
I got everything ready then made a penguin assembly line.
Cut each mozzarella ball into about 4 pieces.
Chop baby carrots into thin disks, then cut out a tiny triangle to make feet. Use the cut out triangle to make the beak.
Slice a large olive & slide in a piece of cheese.
Stack the large olive onto the carrot, then a small olive sideways onto the body. Hold them straight and secure with a toothpick. Insert the carrot/beak.
Repeat as many times as you want/need. Enjoy!



those are adorable!! I might try my hand at making those for Maggie's birthday :)
