Cookies anyone?

 

 

 

 


I hosted a cookie party last night . . . nineteen (19) students came and we had an incredible time! None of them had ever made cookies before, so this was a complete cultural lesson for them. They loved the cutout kind of cookies. Additionally, the frosting was made using margarine and powdered sugar . . . none of them had ever seen margarine used that way! The looks on their face were priceless.

Rachel and Michael had a wonderful time as well. They mingled with the "big kids" and stuffed their faces with Christmas cookies.

I borrowed a friend's oven so that we could have two batches going at a time. As you can see, the ovens aren't very big, but they do the job!

It was an amazing evening. Next week, we're going to sing Christmas carols and possibly make stockings. It depends upon whether or not I make it out to the market that has the stockings.

I am moving into the land of "beyond exhausted."
