My veggie tales charms for Miss Add’s birthday cupcakes are finally made.

Whew.

It is a GOODe thing too because 1) the birthday is this weekend and 2) I got caught mid-veggie last night by a certain three year old who is now convinced that her mommy waits until she goes to bed to play with secret veggie tales toys…

I am glad these little boogers are made… I was beginning to worry that I wasn’t going to get them done.

For step by step pics on how I made Bob and Larry, check out my earlier veggie post.
Below is how I threw together dear Ole Junior :)

I started out with a bit of a cone shape on top and added the whites of my eyes.

Added my nose and the buds on the asparagus.

Finished off with the rest of the eyes, a little teeth action and his little cap.

I then poked toothpicks into the bottom of each character and removed. My plan is to bake them sans toothpick so that I can insert the toothpick for the cupcakes, but remove for playtime afterward.
The letters on the other hand will be baked with the toothpick since that is their only purpose.
