Miffy Cupcakes

Holy Peter Cottontail! March is quickly coming to an end, Easter is right around the corner, and spring is in full swing! Seriously, when did all THAT happen?! Apparently while I wasn’t paying attention, that’s when…

But that must mean it’s time for some sweet spring/Easter treats, right? And I don’t know about you, but there are few things that scream spring and Easter for me more than bunnies. Cute, fluffy BUNNIES.

Unless they’re the ones from Monty Python… In which case, RUN AWAY!

Perhaps it’s because I was born near Easter and my first stuffed animal was a Puffalump Easter bunny cleverly dubbed Bunny, or Bun-Bun for short (obviously I was an astute child), or because my early childhood was peppered with tales of rabbits like Velveteen Rabbit, Peter Rabbit, Benjamin Bunny, and the nightmare-inducing Watership Down (raise your hand if your parents accidentally scarred you for life assuming that questionably G-rated, animated bloodbath was suitable for you as a child *raises hand*).

Or perhaps because my best friend growing up shared a love for rabbit-related stuffed animals (her favorite was a rabbit cleverly named Rabbit. Clearly we were destined to be friends.) or because, for a short time, we nursed the CUTEST little baby cottontail rabbit back to health.

Whatever the reason, spring and Easter always bring fond memories of tiny, fluffy bunnies to mind. SO. MUCH. FLUFFINESS.

And holy fluffy cuteness, it doesn’t get much more adorable than Miffy.
I’m going to blame my knowledge of Miffy on my nieces and my friends’ children, and not at all on the fact that I totally still read children’s books and watch children’s movies (and occasionally cartoons, too).

Nope. Only adulting here. So adult. Much matureness. Wow.
