Deck the Halls!

With Christmas being only a month away momstown Edmonton North took the opportunity to get into the spirit of Christmas crafting with an "All That Glitters" themed event this morning. A perfect craft for this time of year to get us thinking of decking the halls and into the spirit of merry making!


With help from the mamas, the little ones made pine cone frosty, glittery ornaments!



I'd love to take credit for this pretty craft but have to thank the momstown Arts and Crafts site for this gem!


And there's always time for snacks and meeting our newest momstown baby (she's a beauty)!

There's no time like the present to get in on all the momstown action. Join Us!

The weather outside is frightful...

...but in here it's so delightful. And if there's no place to go, Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow! Edmonton got quite the shock over the past two days with a drop on the thermometer and an increase of the white stuff on the ground.



But we didn't let it get to us at my house! After their early morning excursions with my son at preschool and my daughter and I at a momstown playdate, I decided to have a little one-on-one time with my oldest. And to spend some time together we decided to browse the momstown meals site and pick out an easy and yummy recipe to make while the little sister slept. We chose Peanut Drops !


And the best part of baking sweet treats is the clean-up! Yum!


No matter what Jack Frost brings, keep warm and deliciously toasty with this and other great meal ideas from momstown!

Mission: The Big Cook

And we choose to accept it.
We sliced, diced, cubed, shredded, minced and chopped up ingredients for 64 recipes in momstown's version of the Big Cook! Armed with all the ingredients, we gathered in groups and took on the enormous task of meal assembling. What came out of it? Prepared meals for weeks to come and the pride of knowing we will be feeding our families nutritious, homemade meals that will fill their bellies and most importantly, save our sanity! Not only was it an event with great food rewards, but was one of good ol' fun too as we chatted, laughed, swapped stories and were treated to one mom's specialty coffee brewing skills (Thanks Vicky!).

There's only two words that could sum up this awesome day: Mission Accomplished!


Garlic, yum!
