The last couple of weeks I have been living with a ninja. He has some seriously mad sneak skills. I don’t know where my son has gone, the ninja fever has taken him over. Absolutely everything has been tied to ninja something with Meatball so it was of no surprise that when BuyCostumes® sent us Halloween costumes for review his choice was the Blue Power Ranger.
Ya’ll he has been absolutely adorable as he bounces around making absolutely nonsensical tough guy sounds.This has been a rough month for my depression and getting to watch him have the time of his life pretending to be a ninja has been a light of pure joy. Amazing how the simple things in life like a child’s laughter can do that 😉
It’s so hard not to smile when your little man becomes your ninja tough guy! He has mastered his tough guy face (it even helped him overcome his fear of the dark)! I am loving how happy this costume has made him!

Ninja Cookies
So when Meatball’s awesome costume showed up this week he all of a sudden decided that it was time to take his ninja game up a notch. These super simple ninja cookies and avocado pudding have been just one way he has leveled up.
Items Needed for Ninja Cookies
- Oreos — we used Double Stuffed and Peanut Butter
- Black Food Marker

Directions
To make these cookies open up your Oreo and remove a section from the top and bottom to create the area where the eyes will be. Using your black food marker draw two slants for eyebrows and two dots for eyes.
Set aside to dry while you make your avocado pudding (directions below).
Using your red piping gel draw a rectangle around your eyes. Take spoonfuls of your chocolate pudding and make piles on your plate. Stick your ninjas in and serve! So easy your kids can make this!
