I volunteered to be one of the party parents for Ryan's preschool Easter party. It also happened to be his sharing day. The children were asked to bring in a sign of Spring for their sharing day. We tried to convince Ryan to take in a box of Kleenex since his allergies have been particularly bad this season. But, he insisted on taking in a dandelion and a little stuffed blue bird that he found in our storage bins of Easter decorations. Ryan told his classmates that he brought in a dandelion because "flowers grow in the Spring." A few corrected him, explaining that a dandelion is a weed, not a flower. I laughed and reassured him that given our gardening skills, we consider a dandelion a flower!
Somehow, despite my lack of success in the kitchen, I got tasked with making the snack for the Easter party. So, I made Rice Krispies treat nests because they're nearly foolproof and don't pose a significant allergy risk. They were surprisingly easy to make and well received by everyone, including my own picky eater!
Wow, Michelle your Baker skills are being revealed!
