A Pot of Dirt

Garden inspiration really did a number on me. So, I drove out to Michael's and bought clear glass flower pot shaped votives.  To make these little cuties, you'll need this stuff:
  • clear flower pot votive holders
  • cook&serve chocolate pudding mix
  • milk
  • mint extract
  • chocolate flavored goldfish crackers (smashed into a million pieces)
  • flowers
So, make your pudding,put a few drops of mint extract in it.  You're going to stir forever, so either listen to music, or be engaged in a  conversation with someone that is trying to "study" for their Bar exam at 3am.

After making the pudding, your arm is going to fall off.  Don't worry, pick it back up and attach it to your shoulder.  If it won't stick, my Dad always suggests duct tape.  Pour the pudding in to the containers.  Put them in the fridge to set.  While the pudding is setting, take the chocolate goldfish crackers and put them in a zip-lock bag.  Slam the shit out of it on the counter.  Now it looks like dirt!
Check out the pudding.  Once it is set, take a large spoon and dump the smashed goldfish on top.  Finish them off with a flower that you cut from your overgrown yard.
