mud pies
Backyard pretend desserts
Mud pies are shapeless masses of mud that children mold with their hands, often in imitation of cooking or baking.
The activity is a childhood rite—messy, imaginative, and unsupervised: The kids spent all afternoon making mud pies in the backyard.
The term sometimes appears figuratively for anything crudely fashioned or worthless.
