On Progress and Just Stress

May 18, 2012 | Uncategorized

Sorry I’ve been missing lately,
life has been crazy.
Let’s see what’s happened since I last posted…
Spring Break (at the lake)
Emily’s 15th and Driver’s Permit
Trenches and walls
Fence
Electrical
Field Trips and Field Day
Max’s 10th
Dance Rehearsals and Recitals
Silent Auctions
My baby’s first (and second) lost tooth
and my back up drive (with all my pictures and music) crashing due to a lovely magnet

whew…

and I’m sure much more I’ve forgotten.
I can’t wait til summer and either can the “girls” who have already got their spots by the pool!

“What? You said it was a BIRD bath!”

DNA cookies

My daughter wanted me to make cookies for her biology class party and this is what we came up with…

DNA Cookies

I used this same recipe for sugar cookies.  (I used unbleached cane sugar instead of white sugar in the cookies.)  I ended up making royal icing because I was afraid a regular soft icing would not last in the heat and transport.  Hope they like them!
