Focaccia

Focaccia is soooo fun to make esp with kids. I love getting my kids involved in cooking. The younger you get them cooking, the more love they have for it and want to do it. I started my son off at 4 years old.. today he LOVES to cook. I did not do the same with my daughter and she is really not into cooking. So, I decided any children we have going forward, their little butts will be cooking. Anytime my nieces or nephews are over, we cook together (bread, pizza, biscuits, whatever).  You Will Need: 4 Cups Bread Flour (King Arthur) 2 tsp Salt 1 tsp Sugar (honey or agava)  1.5 tsp Yeast 1 tbsp Oil (olive or avocado) 1 3/4 Cups Warm Water  Bake at 445 degrees 10-12 minutes

Window Clings

I have always loved and admired all the beautiful window clings one can buy for Valentine's Day, July 4th, Halloween, and Christmas; to name a few I love. I set out to discover how to make them myself, so I am not forking out a bunch of money on something I could do myself and could cost less. And I did just that... Kristopher, Kailee and myself have been making these for years; since they were about 2 and 3 years old! Oh-My-Word! Do they LOVE making these for their bedroom windows... they pick the picture and decorate it how they wish, let dry, peel and stick bam (in so many words). So, let's explore how to make them, so you and your little ones can enjoy an amazing #CraftySunday craft!! Let your child and yourself be extremely crafty and creative... you will be amazed what they come up with.. ha I was.
