School Yule

I've been remiss in my blogging.  My sincere apologies.  The holidays tripped me up, as they often do.  I find the entire month of December to be a whirlwind and my routine goes out the window.  I'm relatively new to the blogging scene and am still trying to find my groove.  Enough with excuses.

My daughter's preschool hosted their annual Pancake Breakfast with Santa fundraiser the first weekend in December.  I am proud to say that I hold the title of Vice-President of the Board of Directors for the school.  I was the kitchen manager for the event, a familiar position for me.  I also volunteered to make a yule log decorated with meringue mushrooms for the live cake auction.  I found out later that week that it ended up being a birthday cake for the Board's President.  Apparently her sister bought it for her.  She told me it was "very yummy".  It's always nice to get positive feedback when you least expect it.  

    We were pleased to have had a fantastic turn out at the breakfast and managed to raise a record amount of money for the school, as compared to recent years.  Gold stars for everyone!
