What a busy week! For Cody's school we had a staff appreciation week and my crazy mind decided to take it on! Everyday we had a special treat in the staff mailboxes and a lunch on Friday.
Monday...
Tuesday....
Yes, 4 dozen mini apple pies were made and handed out (6 left over)
It's cute and fun and very appreciated!
Take your favorite pie crust and stuff it into 1/2 pint jars
(After a bit of frustration, I went and bought crust)
Fill with about 1/4-1/3 a cup of your favorite filling...
Place a small pat of butter on top of your filling.
Then add a top if needed, being sure to vent with fork punctures or a small cut out.
From this point you can put lids on them and freeze them for later or bake them.
Place in a cold oven at 375* for 40-45 min until brown and bubbly.
(watch them the last 10-15 min so that don't get too dark, cover with foil if needed)
42 pies, tagged and ready for school.
Wednesday...
Wednesday was also the luncheon.
So along with making some chocolate cheesecake bars
I made this yummy pasta salad...
Flowers for the three retiring staff members...
Simple and pretty...
Lunch from Togos and salads from parents...
Fresh squeezed lemonade, teas and water...
Dessert, lots of chocolate!
Thursday....
A bunch of different designs for the 42...
Friday...
Bagels from Safeway
(awesome deal and they sliced them!)
Cream cheese selection and strawberries from the patch...
Applesauce and tea...
Juice for the morning!
So, yeah. It's been a busy week!
This is our bare fridge at home after having to store things through out the week...
On top of this we're rounding out the year in preschool this week and teacher gifts were needed. I had found this really cute tutorial for a different necklace, here. But trying to find clear tiles or pendants was a larger task than they made it out to be. So bottle caps it was...
2 more weeks of school and we are on summer vacation! Hooray!
