Featuring easy-to-use numbered, color coded, clearly-labeled and individually packaged wholesome ingredients, Scratch & Grain products helped Sandra and Robbie  enjoy the timeless pleasure of baking from scratch but to create their very own recipe variations – an option not available with traditional one-mix-fits-all kits.

Scratch & Grain products include Shark Tank Special Packs; Cookie Kits (including such irresistible flavors as Chocolate Chip, Oatmeal Raisin, Classic Sugar, Gluten-Free Snicker Doodle and Gluten-Free Chocolate Truffle); Cupcake Kits; Brownie Kits;Muffin Kits; Cornbread Kits; Cupcake Kits and Pumpkin Bar Kits. Just add such staples as butter and eggs and you’re practically ready to open your very own bake shop. Great job Sandra and Robbie!!!

Scratch & Grain products are all-natural, completely non-GMO, and Certified Kosher, with most also USDA Certified Organic and several gluten-free as well.

Hilly Pilly & the Little White Lie #Bookworm

Posted on

 

My grandchildren love to play dress up and pretend and I love the shows they put on for me while I am supposed to be babysitting them. We all loved Hilly Pilly & the Little White Lie and all the adventures, fun and jokes.    “Hilly Pilly & the Little White Lie” by Wayne Lobdell is a humorous children’s book written based on the author’s own experience of dressing up as the silly character of Hilly Pilly and telling jokes to his children. You are going to read this one out loud.

All profits from the book will be donated to The Boys & Girls Club of America.

#Recital #Singing #PlattduetscheParkRestaurant #MusicAcademyOfGardenCity

My granddaughter had her first solo singing debut.  We were all so excited and pleased.  We also were very nervous for her.  But with hugs from daddy, 

and mommy, her performance was sure to be a cinch. 

The family also came out to give Sophie full support. 

Recital was held at the Plattduetsche Park in Franklin Square.  It was super, we had wine, dinner, and songs.  Yes, we had to sit and listen to other children sing 🎶  and/or play an instrument.  No dancing.    Yup, we all had an entertaining evening, except for Christian.  He couldn’t understand what the fuss was about.  I mean this isn’t baseball.

Her first time ever, singing solo.  Shakey start but finished well.

Maybe, just maybe,  the Music Academy Of Garden City will help Sophie accomplish her dream.

Song: Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again.
