Creativity at it's best...

Yesterday, when I went to pick up my little gems from their grandmother's home, I was greeted at the door with the most amazing gift! Molly and Kat had spent the day being incredibly creative - making the most beautiful flower pot cakes. That's right..... these are CAKES! My girls were so proud of their creations, and rightfully so.... they're awesome! They even had little gummy worms in the "dirt"! How creative is THAT?!?!? Thank goodness my little sweethearts are learning the valuable skill I never learned.... how to cook!

Molly has become quite the little chef in the kitchen these days, and is actually more of a help than I am comfortable admitting. She even owns her own cookbook, which she bought from the school library this year. I believe she checked it out during the first week of school and then spent the entire year renewing it - because she was copying down each recipe by hand! During the last week of school, the librarian advised her she either had to bring the book back or pay $10.00 to keep it. It was $10.00 well spent!!! I may learn a thing or two from this book myself.... you never can tell!
