Thank you for writing. They are not only nice, but all are sooooo helpful! They LOVE to be doing what the adults are doing, whether sewing, taking out recycles, cooking, washing dishes or whatever. I always put my recycles (milk jug, paper, etc) in the same spot on the counter and the minute one of them spots something in the "recycle area" they grab it and take it out to the garage and put it in the recycle container. Yes, I hope you have at least one as well!

Hi there! Thanks for asking. This year I'm making the following cookies / bars:

Special K Bars -- these are called "hogs" because everybody makes a hog out of themselves eating them, and every year I was asked if I'd made enough for them to take some home, so I started adding it to my gift "plates" so everybody could take some home!

Chocolate Chip Brownies -- When my kids were in elementary school, no matter what was going on that teachers asked for kids to volunteer to bring a snack - mine ALWAYS said "I can bring chocolate chip brownies". I can make them with my eyes closed and no recipe to follow - that's how many I've made.

Waffle Iron Cookies - also known as "turtles" because they have a similar shape as a turtle, and the little bit of frosting on them looks like the shell.

No Bake Cookies - quick and easy to fix and everybody seems to like them.

Chocolate Crinkles -- chocolate cookies that are formed into a ball then rolled in powdered sugar -- when baked the cookies spread out and separates the powdered sugar in areas and makes them pretty cute.

Mini Cream Puffs -- everybody loves these and no matter how many I put on the plate, they always wonder why there aren't more.

There you have it! Want to come help me bake???? Considering the number of gift trays I'll be doing, I could always use some help.
