- it's my FAVE story forevs. That being said, we lost our beloved Mr. Sendak last year; he would have been 85 today. 
To celebrate his life and gift to us, I'm doing a throwback of the Where the Wild Things Are inspired cupcakes that I made for my kids' WTWTA Halloween party a few years ago. (I swear, there is something deep down inside of me that wants to do this theme over again.....hmmmm????)
(My Original Sketch for the cupcakes - I got mad skills yo!)
I love looking back at some of my old work - it makes me laugh - notice how my cupcakes are sweating...didn't know then that when frozen cupcakes thaw they actually sweat. Whatevs...they turned out super cute and tasted delish!
Here's a lil' secret.....I've sorta been working on a WTWTA printable set for some time....but still not sure if it's something I really want to go forward with, for various reasons. Since I can't reach a conclusion, I though the least I could do was share a tiny bit of it. So, here's a wall sign from my designs for FREE DOWNLOAD.
While you're waiting on that download check out some of my fave Sendak moments, go to's and tales!
Hilarious Sendak interview with Stephen Colbert (adults only)

The cupcakes are adorable. Awesome job. I just watched the interview with him and Steven Colbert. It was hilarious in an adult sort of way. It's funny though I grew up with his books and my children grew up with his books and always thought he was this sweet, kind, funny man and wow totally different. Opened my eyes.
