Chick da la Yum!

Happy Early Easter and Happy Late Birthday!

For my husbands birthday I made him a popping peep cake. His favorite candy would be marshmallows. If there was an international marshmallow club my husband and I would be enrolled and travelling everywhere just for the delectable marshmallows. 

This would be an awesome Easter cake to make with kids.



1 white cake mix (plus ingredients)
2 cans of frosting
2 packages of bunny peeps (1 pink, 1 orange)
1 package of chick peeps
2 8" round pans
Decorative platter

Follow the baking directions and split the batter up between two cakes. Lay first cake on platter, frost top of  the first cake and place second cake on top so it won't move. Apply the rest of  the frosting to the two cakes. Place bunny peeps around the cake, scatter sprinkles, and place as many chick peeps on top. 

Bon Appetit!

Why Chic Da La Freak?

I am sure you are thinking Why Chic Da La Freak? All of us as humans want to feel chic, elegant fashionable, and stylish, however there are moments in time where we really are freaks, awkward, unusual, unpredictable, and plainly odd. That brief period of time shows who we really are by learning to laugh and pick ourselves  back up. Chic Da La Freak literally means Chic By The Freak. I have learned the hard way to pick myself up and laugh, it is not always easy however it is always worth it.

Example of Chic:




Example of Freak:



I attempted to conquer the DIY body form for 1/10 of the price, well it turned out as something of a hilarious joke between my husband and I. Not as easy as it looks. I am saving up for a real, non-busting body form hanging in the closet. Again may I say Freak!

This is what it should actually look like.
