Weekend Update



Here is a photo of the sour cherry pie I made for Valentine's Day/Presidents' Day. Great idea, except it didn't live to see Presidents' Day. I'm going to have to pinch hit with a cranberry pie, as we are all out of cherries. Spring and summer are coming, though. Soon we will be able to pick more sour cherries from Gramma's cherry tree.



For Valentine's Day breakfast, I made these goofy Bisquick sweet rolls that have red Jell-O powder in the filling instead of cinnamon sugar. The kids loved them. I served them with dairy-free hot chocolate.

As for the school party, one of the moms brought strawberries and grapes (Thank you!), so Katherine and her friend N. were able to enjoy those with the rest of the class. They each chose one of their freezer treats as well.

I'll be back later with a cookbook review. Happy Presidents' Day!
