We have been invited to an Oscar party and we need to bring dessert. I am a huge fan of the Oscars and so is my eldest son. And my youngest son is a huge fan of cupcakes, so we blended our passions and made Oscar-best-picture-nominee-themed cupcakes to celebrate the evening.
And the nominees are…
Avatar 
(See the unobtainium? No, because we couldn’t OBTAIN any.)
The Blind Side 
District 9 
(I haven’t seen it but they tell me the aliens eat cat food.)
An Education 
The Hurt Locker 
Inglorious Basterds 
Precious 
(Made by my neighbor Caroline, previously uncredited. Oops!)
A Serious Man 
(I haven’t seen this movie but the eyeglasses are on the poster. Work with me, here.)
Up In The Air 
(This guy even looks like George Clooney, right?)
Up 
(Of course this is my favorite cupcake.)
Notice they’re all on the Red Carpet? We’re exceedingly proud of ourselves.
So cute!! You guys did a great job!
Thanks — it was pretty fun.
Reason #367 why I’d love to be your neighbor! Those look so great.

Aww! I wish we were neighbors, too!
Love the theme cupcakes — I gotta remember this next year!
