Week 12: March 24, 2013

We made cinnamon roll bunnies and chocolate rice chex egg nests with m&ms.  John helped pour the chocolate on the chex.  Annie helped add eyes to the bunny rolls.  Then we shared them with our friends and family at an egg hunt.

Week 11: March 17, 2013

Irish Beer Bread
Aldi had a box mix. It was a great way to celebrate the Irish.  Both kids liked watching the beer fizz. Annie thought the pop bread tasted good.  John liked it, too.

Week 10: March 10, 2013

Our cake was a success! I decided to learn from my Aunt and frost the cake in its pan.  Not a complex recipe because it was a box mix. When trying to take a picture of our finished product Bubble G pretended to fall asleep on the cake.  Silly boy.  Rapunzel learned how to frost cupcakes.

Week 9: March 3, 2013

We baked at Grandma and Grandpa's house. I tried to make an apple puff pastry thing with a coconut lime sauce. Kids spent the baking time playing with toys.  I had to bake this thing a long time because the sauce made the dough soggy. So the thing was under cooked in the middle. The coconut lime sauce did not taste very good either.  The kids ended up prefering their ice cream cones made by Grandpa. Next time I'm following a puff pastry recipe.
