Yummy treats
The PTA for Ginny's school is hosting a Teacher Appreciation luncheon. I haven't been able to be as involved in the PTA as I would like so I volunteered to make 3 desserts. I had hoped for 4 or 5 but with the school cancellation (and the luncheon cancellation) and then the return to school (and the luncheon) I wasn't able to make as much as I had hoped. I love baking but it's the eating that gets to me. This way I have an outlet.
Anyway, I made Panda cupcakes (the school mascot), chocolate chip cookies (Grandma Virginia's recipe), and rice krispie balls with sprinkles.
I wish I could say I came up with the panda face idea on my own but I have to give credit to a woman on some website I visited. She made these for her kids' birthday party. I modified it slightly, using frosting for the nose and mouth (she used cookie pieces) but I think they came out well. I may have to make them again.
I will be dropping them all off at the organizers' house this afternoon, after nap time is done.
Now it off to a quick cat nap for me. I finally managed to send off the twins' birthday pictures yesterday and today. A few will go out tomorrow. The really important ones left the house yesterday and today (you know who you are). Only 3 months after their birthday. At least they were sent. I didn't get to bed until midnight but they are gone.
