Cookies for younger kids to make!

This is an old post from my previous blog on homeschool.

Carolyn made the most beautiful cookies last night. It was her first time doing it alone. I went to bed. She started after nine. But she was so excited to do it I just let her go for it. Besides who can argue with having our Friday night movie snack already made?

Tasty too. GO CAROLYN!!!

Heading back to work. I am excited today. I made the first step in becoming a stay at home mom again. I have started a work from home business. :)

I am a working mom as well as a homeschool mom. It does present it's challenges. I have been off work for the last month though..it has been a major blessing to be with them full time.

My kids are older so it isn't that bad. Although I have prayed for the income to be there for me to stay at home, it just hasn't happened. So I do my part. And I make the most of every opportunity to be with my kids! I considered putting them in public school, but the benefits of homeschool, even though I was working, still outweighed the prospect of putting them in public school. My next post will be about how I get it all done!

The cookie recipe that my daughter made was much more involved than this one, but I thought I would put it here for the younger kids.

Super Easy Peanut Butter Cookie Recipie

This is a very basic, easy peanut butter cookie recipie that doesn't even require flour. They taste great and are quick to make.

One cup of peanut butter (crunchy or regular... doesn't matter)
One cup of sugar
One egg

Mix all ingredients together. Roll dough into balls and place on a greased cookie sheet, silpat or parchement paper. Using a fork, flatten the balls leaving a waffled pattern on them. Bake at 350 for about ten minutes. Check periodically to be sure they don't burn. Enjoy!
