A little something sweet

Each third Thursday of the month our church hosts "Golden Gathering".  Taken from our church's website, it is:  

Golden Gathering volunteers throw a theme party for our "Care Partners" who have early dementia/Alzheimer's. It's a morning of fun, music, entertainment, and we conclude with lunch. 
  
I would love to volunteer, but my kiddos prevent that from happening at the moment.  So, I have the pleasure of helping provide the dessert.  I love to bake and I love to help others so it is a win-win!  This month the theme was "Presidents"  so I made Black Forest Cupcakes in honor of George Washington...you know the whole cherry connection!  They were so good!

 
For me, part of serving others is that I must first serve my family.  When I agree to make food for others I always ensure that I make enough for my family.  Drew and my kiddos are my first mission and I never want them to feel second to anything or anyone.  So, the benefit of this belief is that we have a great dessert the third week of the each month!
