1 down, 51 to go...


Saturday, with my assistance, Cade made his first recipe, "peanut butter cookies" found in the Better Homes and Gardens New Cook Book (pg. 117). Chances are you have it in your kitchen, you know the red and white checkered one? Here are a few things he learned:
1. Read the recipe first. How many times have I gotten half way through and realized the appetizer I was making for a party in an hour had to be refrigerated overnight?
2. Get out ALL the ingredients. Ideally you've planned ahead and have already gone to the store to get the items you didn't have on hand.
3. Baking Powder and Baking Soda are two different things! Fortunately the recipe called for both, so it was just a good lesson learned without error.
4. A TBSP. is different from a TSP. so MAKE SURE you read it right!

The cookies were a delicious success enjoyed by all, even dad who is not a big fan of peanut butter cookies!
