It’s Groundhog Day! Predicting a Long, but Sweet Winter!

January 31, 2015 By Lynlee

Groundhog Day fondant push pop tutorial ~ Lynlee's

One of my dad’s absolute favorite movies is Ground­hog Day {you know, the one where Bill Mur­ray wakes up to the same day every morn­ing} and can watch it every time he encoun­ters it on tele­vi­sion… which is often! It’s a clas­sic that the whole fam loves to watch and that real­ly intro­duced us to the tra­di­tion of antic­i­pat­ing the ground­hog’s weath­er pre­dic­tion. Leg­end has it that if this fuzzy lit­tle crea­ture sees its shad­ow when it emerges from its bur­row, we should expect an addi­tion­al six weeks of Win­ter. Though many peo­ple in cold weath­er areas can be a bit bummed by the news, as a res­i­dent of Las Vegas, I nev­er mind a pro­lon­ga­tion of the chilly sea­son, as I know the scorch­ing heat is soon to come!

Peek-a-Boo Bunny Push-Ups

A few years ago, I cre­at­ed this Peek-a-Boo Bun­nies tuto­r­i­al for East­er and I thought the con­cept would be per­fect for a Ground­hog Day! You can fill the push pop con­tain­ers with a vari­ety of treats, such as cake, frost­ing, can­dy, etc. I chose to uti­lize choco­late pud­ding, topped with ground Oreo cook­ies to resem­ble dirt.

Groundhog's Day fondant tutorial  ~ Lynlee's

For a fun project this Ground­hog Day {Feb­ru­ary 2nd}, fol­low the step-by-step instruc­tions on the Craft­sy blog to cre­ate this sweet lit­tle guy peek­ing out to reveal his weath­er prog­no­sis. Spoil­er alert: I think we are still look­ing at anoth­er six weeks of Win­ter! Eek!

 

Merci Beaucoup!
