TREATS

This season is filled with treats! Sweet treats! It was Bea’s turn to take a treat to her student council meeting this week. We tried a new chocolate buttercream recipe that is definitely going to be a keeper. These days she can make a cake (or cupcakes) all by herself with me sitting on the sidelines giving her some tips and reminding her not to make a gigantic mess. So different from a few years ago.

Also this week we had a little gingerbread man party. About eight of the girls’ friends were able to come over and decorate gingerbread men with us. It turned out to be really fun. Along with hoarding some molasses, I’ll be re-stocking our stash of sprinkles and sugar decorations when we go back to the US.
