The next morning feed it to your kids and watch their puzzled expressions as they attempt to dig in.
MAKE BROWNIES
The look on your family’s face when they discover this one is worth a picture.
When your children or significant other comes home, tell them that you made them some brownies.
They will be so excited as they head off to the kitchen to indulge.

UNDRINKABLE JUICE
Fill drinking glasses with flavored gelatin and tell the kids it’s their drink for dinner.
