Little Boy Blue

little boy blue

Brown and blue baby bunting. Easier to eat than to say! Maybe I’ll skip the tongue twisters and go with more traditional nursery rhymes.

Little Boy Blue come blow your horn,
The sheep’s in the meadow the cow’s in the corn.
But where is the boy who looks after the sheep?
He’s under a haystack fast asleep.
Will you wake him? No, not I - for if I do, he’s sure to cry.

I’m sure he’d stop crying if you gave him a cookie. With a field full of cows there is plenty of milk, right?

What were we talking about? Oh yes, these sugar cookies are iced with rolled buttercream and then decorated with chocolate fondant. These little guys were served at a baby shower tea, but they would also make cute favors.
