This week we were hosted by Alex's family, who showed the boys the proper way to prepare food. All the boys got a chef's hat and apron, then they learned how to measure ingredients, wash their hands and vegetables properly, chop vegetables, and make a wrap sandwich. Everybody sat down to a feast including chips, dip, pizza, soup, candy, coffeecake, and cookies! I saw more than one Dad loosening their belt on the way out the door. Thanks so much to Alex and his family for hosting this fun and educational achievement.
Next Wed (11/19/08) we will have our pack meeting at the Middle school cafeteria (7PM). This month is our cookie bake off! Boys should prepare cookies to be judged (as much on their own as is safe). Here are the categories:
Decorated Cut-Out cookies
Giant Cookies (12-inch limit)
Bar Cookies
Traditional Round Cookies
Anything goes
EVERYTHING USED IN/ON THE COOKIES MUST BE EDIBLE.
Prizes (gift cards) awarded in each category, as well as an overall "Best in Show".
Since our normal Den meeting time falls the day before Thanksgiving, our next Den meeting will be Dec 10 at Arrowhead (630 PM).
