Patching Up Momma’s Quilt

Sarah learns to patch up a quilt.

One afternoon Sarah was lying across my bed fingering one of the many holes in my quilt. Unfortunately my children love to do acrobats on my bed and my quilt takes a beating. She asked me why I didn’t fix the holes. It was like a light came on in my head. What better way for her to learn to sew. I got out my sewing kit and showed her how to get started. Believe it or not, it didn’t take us long to repair the many seams on the quilt.

She did a wonderful job and I can just about guarantee there won’t be any seams coming apart that we repaired.

S’more With A Twist

S'more without the marshmallows

My daughter, Sarah, was busy in the kitchen the other night and invented her own type of s’more. She took graham crackers and broke them into small bite size pieces. She placed them in the bottom of this glass. Sarah used a Boston Creme Pie flavored Jello Pudding to pour over the crackers. She then sprayed cool whip on the top and smoothed it with a spoon. Lastly, she sprinkled some sugar free chocolate chips on the top.

She made one for her brother and one for herself. The kids loved the taste and it wasn’t that bad of a dessert for them. It looked pretty. Sarah ran out of ingredients, so Travis and I have to wait until the next time.

Ingredients:
Graham Crackers
Boston Creme Pie Jello Pudding
Canned Whipped Cream
Sugar Free Chocolate Chips
