A few summers ago I held a Kids Cooking Camp at my home and it was so much fun. So throughout the summer I will share with you some fun recipes and tips for cooking with your kids because Kids Can Cook! Our first recipe is for Bread in a Bag. I enlisted three of the cutest little girls who just happen to be sisters from church to come and play with me in the kitchen. Tip One: Make sure the recipe is readable and accessible. and then wrote the ingredients on the paper so the girls could easily see it. Making bread was a great way to teach the girls the right way to measure flour – I prefer the scoop and level method. The first step was to put a cup of flour into their bag They then added the sugar, yeast and water. Then they zipped up their bags and smooshed it all together until the flour was all mixed it.

Firecracker "Surprise Inside" Cupcakes - 2K Amazing Shares Facebook 29 Pin It Share 1.8K 1K+ Twitter 11 Google+ 67 StumbleUpon 68 Email -- Email to a friend 2K Amazing Shares × I come from a really patriotic family.

Now last year I made Firecracker sugar cookies and you all seemed to love them. In fact the internet loved them so much that they went viral.

Painted Rocks, Everyone is different, Make a Path The rock-painting craze is in full swing among communities all over Northwest Indiana. “I think it’s a wonderful movement and it’s contagious — we have painted 120 rocks, just ourselves. If we are diligent and if we all work to make this a good thing, our kids will remember this,” said Elizabeth Eenigenburg, who started the Facebook page Crown Point Rocks. Every community Facebook rock page has a different philosophy — Happy Rock Project, The Kindness Rock Project, etc. — but the main idea is the same: A person paints a rock, hides it in her community, hopes that it is found and inspires the finder to re-hide the rock and/or paint a rock to continue the cycle. Bobby Conger, of Portage, who started the Facebook page NW Indiana Happy Rocks, said his family learned of the Happy Rock project from Cub Scouts. “You are sharing a smile, basically, but you put a smile on a rock. “Everybody is doing it, and it’s cheap to do. Jenny Vander Meer, of Lowell, agrees it is for all ages.

Maybe you’re waiting for news of a promotion, perhaps a new job, entry into university, or how you did on a big test.

That’s why recently I decided to try making almond meal/flour pancakes. This recipes only makes five pretty large pancakes, but that was enough for us.
