Chocolate-Covered Cherry Mice for a Baby-Girl Shower

My 2 oldest girls and I recently attended a baby-girl shower for a sweet friend who had her first baby. I happened to see some pink Hershey's Kisses at the store (a special edition "Strawberry Ice Cream Cone" flavor) and thought, "Wouldn't it be cute to make chocolate-covered cherry mice with those for the baby shower!" So I did, and they turned out so dang cute! I dipped the drained maraschino cherries with stems attached (the mouse bodies) in melted white chocolate chips tinted pink by adding some red candy melts. Ears were slivered almonds, but I have used flattened raisins in the past if there are known nut allergies. The candy eyes (usually found in the baking section near frostings and sprinkle decorations) are stuck on with frosting. They are so cute and innocent looking up at you, making you feel guilty for even thinking of eating them . . . but they taste so YUMMY !

(Sympathy face) Yes, little mice. For in addition to your being so adorable, you are also exceptionally tasty. I'm so sorry!

To the protesters (no, ANARCHIST) who stormed the capitol...

How DARE you attack our police that you CLAIM to support!

How DARE you take down the AMERICAN FLAG and replace it with a Trump flag (or that of any other person). YOU DON'T TOUCH OUR FLAG!!!

How DARE you scare the good men and women (both Democrats and Republicans) inside the building into thinking they might not make it home to see their loved ones, spouses, children, and grandchildren!

How DARE you destroy property that the American citizens have paid for through their taxes and who's taxes will have to repair!

How DARE you make such a despicable display of the United States of America not only to the good citizens of this country but to all the other nations of the world.

How DARE you protest through violence and fear and with weapons!

How DARE you set a deplorable example to our children on how to properly protest!

How DARE you claim to love your country and then break the laws to further your personal opinions. I guess laws only apply to others!

How DARE you wear the American flag while protesting the way you did!

How DARE you call yourselves GOOD American citizens!

SHAME!

SHAME ON YOU ALL!!!

FROM,

A GOOD AMERICAN CITIZEN WHO UPHOLDS THE CONSTITUTION AND WHO CONTINUES TO LIVE PEACEFULLY IN MY DEAR BELOVED COUNTRY WHETHER THE PERSON I VOTED FOR WINS THE ELECTION OR NOT.
