Project 365: February 23

My mom got my son a “Silly Snacks” cookbook for valentines day, and he has been tearing through it.  This was his latest culinary creation,”Grubs and Bugs”

If you can’t tell, they are little cocktail wieners wrapped in crescent roll dough.  The “bugs” have pretzel legs, and the grubs don’t.

This was my first real attempt at any sort of food photography.  My neighbor actually works at Taste of Home magazine, she used to be a food stylist, I think she manages the test kitchen now, or something.  I should have invited her over to dress this up a bit more.  My hasty attempt at putting the bugs in a natural habitat looks, ok.
