Yucky poo poo!!! Gross Claudia!   But, you know, it's way too early and I love a good challenge!

It is preposterous to even think

of bringing life back to an armadillo!

Except for friends we keep, like the kitchen sink

Through thick and thin, we still call AMIGO!

Ok, so it was suppose to scan and be totally iambic pentameter

so that Shakespeare would even approve,

Alas, poor Armadillo, the road ahead for you....is short! 

Hope everyone has a Shine-filled day!    

Be the CHANGE you wish to see in the world! :)

That was gross...I think you took a preposterous cookie and made it disgusting...EW!!!

I'll have to think on ways to use the armadillo...my family and my in laws are equally obsessed with seeing an armadillo since they are so "Texas". I've only see two live since I've lived here.

I think you could definitely incorporate the armadillos into a big HOWDY! Welcome to Texas! basket.

That packaging is hilarious! I love the car scene on top. I just have to share this:

Yes, that is Drew & JB holding an armadillo at my dad's ranch.

How about: "You're a big DILL! Congratulations!" Too much of stretch and too related to pickles?

Or, "It's no big DILL. I still love you." And you could decorate the cookie with a big heart in the middle. Still too picklish? Does Fancy Flours have a pickle cookie cutter?

You could decorate the armadillo cookies with a Texas flag motif for a "Don't mess with Texas" campaign. Dairy Queen has the ice cream treat dilly bars and years ago they had an armadillo as their mascot for a while... I won a contest for naming him Dilly. That's a true story! I used to work for DQ!

This is perfect for a boy's birthday party!  Let them make their own road kill scenes!  Oh it would be perfect...  You made very adorable aramdillos.  And they looked yummy.

HAHAHAHA!! Gross but funny and the packaging is sooooo cute!!! Holly, that clip cracked me up! The last encounter I had with an armadillo was at Texas Roadhouse. His name is Andy the armadillo and he walks around the dining room on kids night. Andy shines because he makes it fun for kids and the girls love seeing him. Texas Roadhouse also does alot for the community and the food is really good . Everyone has really cute ideas today Happy Tuesday!!

Holly!!!!! Hilarious video! How I wish I would have seen that before I embarked on my armadillo. I could have put jingle bells on him or something.

Note to self. Consult Holly before decorating monthly cookies.
