Penguin Puffs have been around for a while yet I don’t think I’ve tried them. It’s an organic, probably super good-for-you kind of cereal. On the other hand, I recently discovered penguin flakes – kinda sounds icky – Like flakes of penguin or something. They aren’t really named “penguin Flakes”, that’s just what we call them because the box is so fun. Really, it’s the generic brand at Walmart “Great Value” and their version of Frosted Flakes, which I LOVE. Took me a couple seconds to make the connection… why penguins? Then it hit me, Frosted… snow and ice… penguins. Oh yeah, now I get it – maybe!

Since finding these yummy spoonfuls of penguin happiness, I think we’ve gone through 6 boxes. It lasts about 2 days in my house. Tasty!

I tried to find a link for you to buy the penguin flakes cereal, in case you don’t have them in your penguin land… all I could find does not have the penguin on the box (I think it’s a penguin footprint though) – sorry!

On that same thought…

July 11th, you could have had Pancakes with the Penguins at the Akron zoo. Unfortunately the event is now sold out. SOunds like a blast, however. Thanks to our friends at the Zoo Advisor for sharing the penguin news!

By the way, don’t look too hard for the Penguin Puffs, my digging around found heaps of news saying the cereal has been recalled due to wheat allergies. ( I always thought tht ment, don’t eat it, not.. pull it from the universe) Who woulda thunk.

I’ve seen a variety of penguin treats, but this is definitely in the top 5 most tasty. I love shortbread, but chocolate is even better – make it all into a penguin and YAY I’m doing a happy dance!

The photographer says the recipe used for these yummy penguins is Martha Stewart’s Chocolate shortbread.

Let me just say it one more time… penguin YUM!

Here’s another funny penguin picture I found while roaming around twitter. Are they really penguins or standing turtles, I can’d decide. And,where can I get a hold of these penguin crackers?

Cream Cheese Penguins

18 jumbo black olives, pitted
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
18 small black olives
1 carrot

1. Cut a slit from top to bottom, lengthwise, into the side of each jumbo olive. Carefully insert about 1 teaspoon of cream cheese into each olive. Slice the carrot into eighteen 1/4 inch thick rounds; cut a small notch out of each carrot slice to form feet. Save the cut out piece and press into center of small olive to form the beak. If necessary cut a small slit into each olive before inserting the beak.

2. Set a big olive, large hole side down, onto a carrot slice. The, set a small olive into the large olive, adjusting so that the beak, cream cheese chest and notch in the carrot slice line up. Secure with a toothpick.
