Merry Molasses Cookies

 
Part of this week's homework for my 2nd grader was to make cookies with a family member.
I'm glad it was part of their homework assignment because it MADE us take the time to make some cookies.  With everything we have going on and with me trying to work everyday, time at home with the family has become so precious.  This recipe was the one my guy decided upon.  We had not made them before and we were pleasantly surprised when they were SO YUMMY!  Addictive actually! Why don't you give them a try?
 
MERRY MOLASSES COOKIES
 
1 cup butter, melted, room temperature
2 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg (trust me, it makes a difference!)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 large egg (room temperature)
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon water
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 cup molasses
3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
 
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
 
Combine melted, room temperature butter with the sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt and egg in a large mixing bowl.  Beat well with mixer until well combined.
 
Dissolve baking soda in the water; add to creamed mixture, beating well.  Stir in molasses and flour.
 
Drop dough by teaspoonfuls, 3 inches apart on parchment lined baking sheet.  Bake for about 8 minutes.  Cool completely on wire racks.
Makes about 8 dozen
 
 
ENJOY!!!
 
Smiles!!!
 
Will share this yummy cookie recipe with some of the fun parties found in my side bar!

Plano West Football Cookies

These were made for the history making Plano West Football team as a "good luck token" from their parents and other Quarterback Club members.
 
Guess it worked!!!  They beat Lufkin (who also happen to be my old high school rival)  55 to 52!!!
Way to go Wolves!!!
 
Smiles!!
 
Will share with a few of the parties in the side bar....

Eat, Drink & Be Merry (Again!)

It's that time of year again...time to show our awesome teachers how much we appreciate them!
Last year we picked up some great insulated cups at Wal-Mart, filled them with candy and passed them out to our teachers.
 
This year, we did it again...but chose the blue snowflake cups.  Thought they could use them a little longer since they are not so Christmas specific.
 
If you'd like the FREE PRINTABLE for the Eat, Drink & Be Merry Blue tags,
 
If you'd like the FREE PRINTABLE for the Eat, Drink & Be Merry Red & Green tags,
 
What are some of your favorite Christmas gifts for teachers?
 
Smiles!!!
 
Will share these tags with some of the parties found in the side bar--->

Gobble Gobble Banner

 
So, during some of my time off, I've been cleaning out, organizing and trying to make sense of everything.  One thing I've figured out...I should have no reason to go to Hobby Lobby for a very long time!!
This banner was made with leftover burlap, jute, brown paint and little bit of muslin fabric.
For the letters, I simply printed out each letter, put underneath the burlap and painted.
Each flag is cut out of burlap using a letter sized piece of cardstock for the template.
To finish, I just sewed the flags onto a long piece of jute.
 
Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours!!
 
Gobble Gobble!!
 
Smiles!!
 
I don't always share at the linky parties, but when I do I chose the ones in my sidebar!
