My Project

WE LOVE COOKING!!! Each month my little firstie friends and I come together to cook a delicious meal to share. In October, we pick potatoes from our school garden, wash/cut them, and make mashed potatoes with homemade butter. November brings Friendsgiving with warm chunky applesauce and December has hot cocoa.

Right now I haul in all the needed cooking tools and utensils from home, but it would be SO NICE to have a complete set of cooking supplies ready to use at school.

Some of our upcoming recipes include edible cookie dough, fresh bread, jello, dirt (pudding) cups, and friendship soup!
