Well, I am finally done with all the goodies for teachers. The kids and I really dug in and made some super yummy treats (Well, the kids told me they were yummy, they weren't gluten free, so I just have to trust.). We did the Oreo Truffles from A Southern Fairytale's blog http://asouthernfairytale.com/2009/12/17/oreo-truffles/ and cranberry nut bread (old recipe of ours), and Smores on a Stick from Saucy's Sprinkles http://www.saucysprinkles.com/2010/12/one-day-of-dipping.html . We had to get boxes filled for 10 teachers/staff, so I am baked out... For now. ;) I have a few more recipes that I have found while blogging that I am dying to try while changing them to gluten free. I mean, who wants to bake and bake and not partake??? I am not that strong. :) So we'll take a few days off and then pull out the mixing bowls again. (I REALLY want a stand mixer, I think I may start to save up for one.) And we still have the annual gingerbread house to decorate. This year the shorties are going to participate, should make for messy pictures...
I can't believe that my kids are home for Christmas break already. Kevin was home today and I had to take him to the doctor, fever of 102 and a terrible sore throat. I figured strep, luckily I was wrong and it's viral. So he missed the Christmas parties and the sing-a-longs that the kids really look forward to doing. Oh well, I enjoyed his company today and he did get a lot of sleep in. Poor kid really sounds awful though...
