Thanksgiving Baking

I am not a good cook. I don't like to cook. I remember being a kid and trying to help in the kitchen. My LITTLE sister kicked me out! However, baking is something I have been able to manage. The Princess and I whipped up some cute desserts for today's feast. We didn't have the eyeball candy for the turkey, so we used white chocolate chips and drew on them with edible markers like this:




We used the broken or messed up candy corns for the beaks and the good ones for the turkeys' feathers.


 We also made sugar cookies like we did for Halloween. We discovered that the round sprinkles like to roll off and not stick to the icing :-(

Fall Tree Craft

The Princess and I discussed this art project in theory. She created this on her own: 

So I created my own tree. I also took her outside to look at the trees. I pointed out the branches to her. I showed her out the trees leaned some. I explained how the tree was thinner at the top. 

The Princess created a new tree to reflect what she saw. I love the growth from this project. She wants to know which tree is your favorite.
