Let the good times roll!

We all know I love a good crawfish boil, especially in Louisiana!  So, I was thrilled to learn some of our dear friends from Louisiana were traveling to Nashville to show us Music City folks how crawfish is really done. :)

Sweet Amy came early for some girl time with her adorable daughter and precious niece.  She wanted to take a treat to their hosts for the weekend, so she thought what's better than cake pops?  In sticking with the 'mudbug' theme, we went with red and brown sprinkle pops.




Check out the fun arrangement we did!




Thanks, Amy and here's hoping everyone enjoyed the crawfish!

Louisiana Saturday Night

Having lived in Louisiana for several years and still having family there, I can tell you one of my favorite things to eat is crawfish!  My mother-in-law is a fabulous cook and makes the most incredible dishes with crawfish (and butter, lots of it!).  But my most favorite way to eat it is at a crawfish boil.  There is nothing better than an old fashioned Louisiana crawfish boil complete with potatoes, corn and cake pops! ;)

Louisiana natives but now Nashville implants, Caroline and Alan are throwing a crawfish boil tonight and wanted cake pops to serve as their sweet treat.  Caroline and I thought about creating little crawfish pops but opted for classic red sprinkle pops.




We thought wrapping them with raffia would add a rustic Louisiana feel.







Enjoy those mud bugs and save some for me!  Thanks, Caroline!
