Cookie Baking Night 06/03/13

Tonight was Cookie Baking Night. In attendance this evening: Ethan and Carissa (and special guest: Diana, their mom).

We always have supper together on Cookie Baking Night but I don't usually post about it. Tonight I thought I'd share the idea, as it might interest others. We made our own French bread pizzas. I toasted the bread on one side beforehand, and then each person put on their own toppings, and I baked them in the oven for about five minutes. It was definitely a hit.




Our cookie tonight was the "hamburger cookie". 

To make these we use mint patties (candy), green-colored coconut (to resemble lettuce), Nilla wafers (buns), yellow frosting (mustard) and red frosting (ketchup). 



Then we topped them off with sesame seeds. Always a winner, this recipe. 


We also read from God's Names by Sally Michael. Tonight's lesson was the name Jehovah-El Emeth, meaning The Lord God of Truth. We talked about the difference between truth and lies. We also learned that "God is not a man, that he should lie, or a son of man, that he should change his mind...... (Numbers 23:19). Carissa read from Genesis 3:1-7 for us. We are learning much about the character of God through His names. 

Tonight was full of projects, and the time went quickly. As usual, a fun time was had by all.
