PIlgrim Hats

All right, while there's still ONE WEEK before Thanksgiving, here is an easy Thanksgiving treat.  It involves no baking (which I was mildly disappointed in, since I love to bake) but some assembly.  Buy cookies that have fudge on one (or both) side (I used Keebler Fudge Stripes), some miniature Reese's peanut butter cups, and orange icing.  Place the cookie fudge side up, put a peanut butter cup upside down, and use orange icing to adhere the peanut butter cup to the fudge cookie.  Draw a little square buckle on the hat . . . and there you have it! Even me, craft-challenged Mama with a shaky hand and poor fine motor skills (note the not straight icing) managed to pull this one off for a party tomorrow.

I thank God for this day

For the sun in the sky

For my home on the ground

That keeps me warm and dry

For the love that we share

'Cause God listens to my prayers

And that's why we say thanks every day

For a grateful heart is a happy heart

I'm glad for what I have, 

(that's an easy place to start)

for my mom and my dad, 

I'm so very very glad

And that's why we say thanks every day!
