Today, thirteen girls and myself were cooking in the farmhouse kitchen. It was our turn to host the homeschool families for "Keepers of the Home" club that we do twice a month. "Keepers of the Home" teaches homemaking skills to our girls so they will be prepared when they grow up and have a home of their own. It also teaches them how to help us moms more around the house. We also enjoy getting together to fellowship. Today we focused on Stained Glass Cookies. You put crushed hard candy in the middle of a cut-out sugar cookie and it gives it that stained glass effect. We also had a cookie exchange where each family brought a dozen cookies for the other families and we traded. That was interesting to see the different kinds of cookies. When the girls were finished in the kitchen, they got to make a cookie cutter gift filled with candy and put it in a gift bag to give away to someone. We ended our fellowship around the piano singing Christmas carols. It was a fun day "on the farm!"

The cookies look very good . It looks like you all had lots of fun. MOM
I love your Keepers of the Home club. Hats off to Jody for keeping it going all these years and the mothers who are faithful.
Your stained glass window cookies look like a fun idea. (I have to be honest. I really really dislike cut-out cookies. I think they look so nice but they take so much more time. :) Just in case you wanted to know... lol
