We survived the Dress Rehearsal today. The kids really did a great job. Other than sound issues (which we seem to always have with little people voices) the kids did wonderful. Tomorrow... and it will be done. :) I'll show pics tomorrow.
I thought I'd share a few pics from my baking weekend. I always bake for friends/family/parents at school. Kevin and Mom helped me out a bunch. Kevin always decides my "theme" and tells me what to do. Really.... he tells me what to do. I know that shocks most of you that know us. ha!!! He laughs at me because I can get a bit "panicky" in the kitchen. I always get that way with brittle. We were all a bit tired, but livened up as the weekend went on. My Mom is going to "kill" me for putting this picture up:
Daddy and Mikayla helped, too. Wesley was too busy playing with his Lincoln Logs or his Christmas train. :)
Here is what I made: Spicy Oatmeal Crisps (no real pictures of these as we were busier than a one armed paper hanger at that time), Cream Cheese Truffles (some dipped in chocolate, some dipped in cocoa, others in powdered sugar), Homemade Pimiento Cheese (again.. done while Kevin and I were working on truffles, so no pics of that, either) , Sausage Balls, Coconut Cashew Brittle. ALL were sampled and ALL were quite tasty. :)
Little treat bags of the goodies :)
Sausage balls!
The "other" truffles
Me working on my fourth batch of Coconut Cashew Brittle. I may make that for the fair next year. :)
Just to prove I really was doing something and not staging a picture. lol
This brittle is SO stinkin' good...
