We took the day off "school" on Monday and learned about the civil war.
I love this book! In addition to making some recipes from this cookbook, we
read a civil war book, and watched "Gone With The Wind." We were lucky enough
to visit a couple battlefields and Harper's Ferry last summer. This year is the sesquicentennial
of the war and we are hoping to go to some re-enactments.


dough nuts...the girls made them, rolled them out, and shaped them.

Some were dipped in sugar and cinnamon, some in powdered sugar.
