The Chopstick Masters

Uh Oh.

I, Chocolate-Covered Katie, used to be known as the Chopstick Queen… but it seems two conniving little rascals (a.k.a. my cousins, Dennis and Nathan) usurped that title from me while we were on our cruise. Take a look:

What to do about this?

Oh, okay boys, you can have the title. You’re much cuter than I am with the chopsticks, anyway.

    Oh, those cousins of yours are going to grow up to be big fat studs. Yes, for sure. They are so cute!

    As are you, Miss Vegan Virgo! Vegan Virgos Take Over the World does have a nice ring to it.

    Aw, they are so adorable!! I think they are worthy of a chopstick title, for sure :o)

    Almost the big day – I hope it’s a very happy one!!

    Hahaha, chopstick kids! So cute!

    Happy Birthday for tomorrow! Mines on the 14th so I’m a Virgo too (although I can’t claim the vegan title but I can claim a vegetarian one :P)

  7. Caitlin says

    Aww, so cute! But I’m sure you’re cute with the chopsticks too. 🙂 Do they know how to use chopsticks? If not you should definitely teach them! 🙂 Happy birthday (almost)! Hope you have some yummy vegan cupcakes/cake for your bday.

    Happy Almost Birthday You! I can't wait to read about your birthday festivities and eats. Have a wonderful day & I'm sending you a big vegan birthday smooch! xoxo

  9. Animal-Friendly says

    Your cousins are so cute that there’s no way they can be denied the title of “Chopstick Masters!” But you should definitely keep the crown- you created the title!

  10. Aimee says

    Happy birthday, I hope someone makes you vegan cupcakes as beautiful as the ones you make everyone else!

    Your cousins really are so cute, they are going to be super hansome when they grow up!

  11. A.Cook says

    Love the pics of the little munchkins! Happy birthday tomorrow!!! Mine was last weekend so I am also a vegan Virgo 🙂

    And I’m so sorry I missed your one-year blogging post! I’ve been so crazy and haven’t been reading blogs for a few days, but I wanted to say congratulations! Your blog is my very favorite–keep it up 🙂

  12. Danielle says

    HAPPY 22ND BIRTHDAY DARLING! I hope it’s everything you hoped it’d be and more, a chocolate-covered-vegan like you definitely deserves it 🙂

    P.S. Your cousins are the cutest!

  13. caretoeat says

    I just found your blog and I LOVE IT! I scrolled through to look at pictures and it looks like you enjoy some really yummy foods AND have a penchant for cake/cupcake decorating. Yay!
    I’m a Virgo, too! But not a vegan…total carnivore. 🙂 Happy birthday!
    -Erin

  14. Vegan_Noodle says

    Hope you’re enjoying your birthday today!!! Sending you a big hug and hope your eating lots of yummy vegan cake!

    And believe me, you have some fondant shaping skills that I could only dream of!! We would make a good team 🙂

    Andrea—
    My hair definitely doesn’t curl like that naturally. I WISH! Normally, it’s pin-straight. To get it to look like that, my super-talented sister used a spiral curling iron. (She seriously IS super-talented… she can actually French-braid her OWN hair!!!)

    Caretoeat/Erin—
    Your comment was so sweet! Thank you!!!

    Caitlin—
    LOL, my cousins do not know how to use chopsticks… but they have fun trying! Well, actually, as you can see in the pictures, I think Nathan just had fun putting them in his mouth :o).
