Today is one of my favorite holiday's. April Fools, a day devoted to harmless tricks, it is way better than Halloween with all the scary costumes. So today I got up and decided to enjoy the day on my terms. I made a batch of rice crispy treats and added 1/2 cup of salt to the batch. Since I am known for the treats that I bake, no one even questioned me, they just dove right in. The looks were polite at first, then people started seeking each other out to see if they were the only ones who thought it was bad. Finally I couldn't hold it in and shouted APRIL FOOLS, people knew they had been had and tossed the rest of the treat and any lingering bits from their mouth. Since we were at church, they headed to find the donuts and clear their palate. I noticed people being cautious when biting into the donuts, not wanting another April Fools prank. This warmed my devious April Fools day heart!
P.S. For all of you that don't plan your April Fools day pranks in advance, tomorrow is too late. You missed it, so plan better next year and be careful of sweet church ladies carrying platefuls of rice crispy treats.
