I learned how to create a flower arrangement from my extremely artistic and brilliant mom!

As much as I love New York, Toronto comes in a very close second. For the fourth consecutive year, I went to the Ex. A two week “fair” that takes over the CNE in down town Toronto the end of August /beginning of September. Here they introduce the strangest of foods; deep fried butter, chocolate covered bacon, and deep fried, well, everything! 

These cookies were easy and a lot of fun to make. My aunt, in the past, has put the cookies on skewers to make beautiful cookie bouquets.

Cookie ingredients:

1 stick of Butter

1 cup of sugar

1 tsp vanilla extract

2 eggs

3 cups of flour

Cream butter and sugar. Add eggs and vanilla extract and mix well. Add flour and knead until stiff. 

Icing Ingredients:

1 kg of icing sugar

1 tsp lemon juice

3 egg whites

food coloring

Mix ingredients together. Divide icing into individual bowls and add desired color to each. Put icing into piping bags and go wild!

Camp Dabarno, Muskoka

It’s always a great time at Camp Dabarno. The best new addition; a vegetable garden! We ate fresh herbs, tomatoes, and peppers. What a treat!

I know, right?!
