Octodog and Shells

by megan on November 1, 2008

My sister made this Octodog and Shells for my nephew! It turned out great, and he loved every bite! This is such a cute and fun idea for kids and adults who are kids at heart. The details for creating this fun dish are here. Can you believe that there is actually a kitchen gadget specifically for making Octodogs? See the Frankfurter Converter here.

Megan, I love the new look. You go girl. And those Octodogs and Shells, well that’s what I consider comfort food. Right up my alley. Great post.

Do you actually own that gadget? How cool – and how funny. Love your goldfish swimming in your macaroni sea.

And I can’t think of anyone who deserves a smiling face in her coffee more than you!

Oooh, I bought one of those contraptions from the dollar store when I was in Japan, that makes dogs into characters. The one I got turns it into a flower, but I have yet to try it out… and it’s been a couple of years. LOL

Ah, that’s precious! If I were a kid I’d pee my pants.

I’m glad I’m back too :)

Take care.
