Second Bi-annual Lollipop Harvest


So this is how Caeden's "fishy" cake turned out. Nerds and frosting are a surprisingly good combination we found out.


A few highlights of his gifts, a fireman's helmet with sound and a digital camera of his very own.
I think this was about the only time I got him to stand still all day, too much excitement for sure!

Our first crop of lollipops are ready for harvest at the end of September, just in time for Caeden's birthday. The second crop comes up in December. Although lollipops are not winter hardy in our zone, candy canes are. So nice that we can get both crops to come up in time for birthdays.

Camlyn harvesting his lollipop, Caeden is much too fast for me to catch on camera. Grandma helping Caeden to plant some more lollipop seeds.

What a cute idea! You are so creative, Jessica. Love the cake! I'll keep the nerds/frosting tip in mind for the next cake I have to make. ;)

What a cool tradition Jessica! :) Sounds like so much fun- that'll be something they'll love remembering when they're all grown up. :)
