Kid's Kitchen

Lesson 21: Red, White & Blue

*I used the recipes for the Drinks and Strawberries from The Sisters Cafe. The link will take you to directions on the Layered Drinks. 

The kids had a lot of fun making these recipes! Here's to our Patriotic Holidays and The USA! 

1. Frozen Lemonade Pie with Berries
2. Layered Drinks
3. White Chocolate Dipped Strawberries with Blue Sugar

Wassail

I wish you a Merry Christmas and a cup of Wassail!

Happy Holidays to everyone! Busy this time of year...that is why this wassail rocks! It is so easy to make and you put it in a crock pot and leave it be...then WA LA- Finished!!! It makes the house smell so nice. Cloves, Cinnamon, Oranges! 

This wassail is a family tradition of mine. Every Thanksgiving and Christmas, my mom would make this wassail. When I was young, I had to put ice cubes in it because it would be too hot for me to drink. :)

This recipe only has 4 ingredients in it. Yes ONLY 4!!! How great is that?! 

Sugar Cookies

Great for Holidays...Or Anytime. 

So, the month of October is insanity for me. Great. But Busy. No, seriously B.U.S.Y. Anyone who knows me knows why. It is the month of Anniversaries, Birthdays and Holidays. Fun time of year, but that is why I have not blogged. Oh how I have wanted to blog. But along with my housework...blogging has been pushed back. 

I have learned a few things though. Why. Why do I do so much for my kids? Well, I thought about it and this is what I learned...#1. I love them. And #2. I want to spend as much time with them, (while I have them young) as I possibly can. It is true...they grow in the blink of an eye. 

So, moral of the story...I have been building memories, enjoying this time of year, loving my kids and letting my house and blog go for a little while. Not all together. NO. What would the world be if ALL my dishes in my sink were dirty? ICK. 

Lets talk recipe. What makes our dishes dirty...Sugar Cookies! With a Vanilla Sugar Glaze!
