One of my favorite "special events" at the girls' school is Multicultural Day. Each room is a "country", and the families bring in food, decorations, activities, etc., from that country. This year both of the girls had fun, pretty easy countries...Anna's class was Mexico, and Kate's was Japan.
I couldn't resist making these "tortilla chip" cookies for Anna's class. They're actually lemon poppyseed cookies! Yum! I was going through a bit of a panic thinking that I might not be able to make little homemade goodies for her once she started kindergarten (I guess every school has their own rules), but WHEW--disaster averted...I can indeed still bring homemade goodies to school for her and her little buddies! These were a hit...might have to make a repeat performance in kindergarten...
This picture doesn't really belong in this set, other than to explain the general "blueness" of Kate in the subsequent pictures. It was snowcone day with her playgroup prior to Multicultural Day!
My little Japanese doll...
The sweetest sisters...
Enjoying an Italian flag cookie. Italy always seems to be one of the most popular rooms with the girls. Who can blame them?
Some candy "sushi"...
Playing with the Matroshka dolls in "Russia". This was one of the coolest rooms. The girls have quite a few Russian kids that go to school with them, so a group of them did some authentic Russian dancing. Beautiful.
