Not just brownies and more brownies?

Cheesecake, lemon pound cake, banana pudding, The Stanley Cup (a rich chocolate trifle), lemon nut bars, cake pops, sopapilla cheesecake and more. No brownies that I recall. I made a Strawberry Yum Yum for our
Life Group yesterday, got informed it needs to be a part of next
year's auction.

Did the usual guy get your lemon pound cake this year...? Sounds like a

This coming week is Music Camp at our church (our version of VBS)...
This year is Gideon... the kids learn and put together a musical during
the course of the week, and perform it Friday night... Our teens are
part of the staff... :) Oh, and this year they asked for paper towel
rolls and toilet paper rolls... I'd accumulated another 2 years worth
since giving that batch to you... (G) It's going to be used as part of
the props somehow... ;)

Hi Nancy,

Hopefully in a reasonable time frame.

Yup... hopefully next week will cooperate... :)

It should, AFAIK. I'll do a half recipe with fresh peaches.

And see how it goes... :) Did you get a chance yet...?

No, couldn't get to the market for peaches last week.

And fun was had by all... along with good eatings
afterward... :)

Of course! Saw lots of green tee shirts in church this morning;
camp was last week so all the kids (and chaperones) wore their
shirts today.

Sounds like a tradition... ;)

Something give you that idea? (G)

Just had that feel to it... (G)

And a lot of those same youth were helping out at VBS last week. We
end the week with a hot dog cook out; I know some of the guys were
manning the grill--not a fun job with the heat we've had. But, being young, it was fun for them.

Most young people don't have too much trouble with extreme
temperatures... just the very young and the getting older ones like
us... and the elderly.... :) Good that they were able to help out...
:)

Yes, the extra sets of hands are always appreciated. A set of 3
brothers, under an adult, always do the recreation; I usually get a
helper and others scatter where needed--nursery, snacks, etc.

Hmmmmmmmm, horns or lamp holders? If you were doing Joshua/Jerico, they
would make a great wall. Hope you had enough for what was needed.

Got some this week but had enough other sweets that we didn't want to
overload ourselves or the fridge.

Very well for all concerned. Didn't need a nursery this year as all
adult workers had older or no kids.

These will be eaten "as is" because Steve brought home a box of
blueberries from a friend's pick it yourself place the other night. I
made a half recipe blueberry yum yum this morning; we'll sample it at
supper time. Also have some knock off Brook's chicken marinading for
supper.

Quite so, first time in I don't know how long we've not needed a nursery

Always fun to see how ingeneous the costumers/craft people get to
accomplish the look they're going for. Some things you would never
suspect go into the creation of just the "right look". (G) Been there,

Yummy, of course. (G) Now gone. Not quite as good as the strawberry but
not bad. Will try the peach version when we get back from VT.

Very well for all concerned. Didn't need a nursery this year as

all RH>> adult workers had older or no kids.

Exactly! One mom came with her husband (teacher) and son (student) but
stayed in the nursery with her daughter (too young for VBS), just so
they could have some sort of family time. Mom works as a nurse so this
gave her time with the kids while they were still awake.

Always fun to figure out "now how can I make", "how can I incorporate
this into that" sort of thing.

Quite often, yes.
