little creations

My new "office" of sorts is my kitchen table. It is a very nice table and has a great view, through the double doors, of the Rim-rocks. At this table, some wonderful "little creations" have been made. And the only rules that reign supreme are neatness, creativity, and fun!

The first was a double-sided sign announcing the Backyard Bible clubs. This was a project which did not require much thought, but only patience and precision in tracing and filling in the letters! But I do need to mention the Magnum Sharpie Markers and the slight headache that followed the completion of the project! Next, is a puzzle made from poster-board, which is going to become a memory verse game for one of the lessons of the Bible Club. I had never made a puzzle before, but the compass and protractor came in very handy! Another creation, which is definitely more yummy than the other two, are some home-made chocolate-chip peanut butter cookies. I cannot take the full credit for the recipe--part was taken from the back of the chocolate chip bag!
