Prologue

One of the things we've been doing at home a lot more than normal during the stay-at-home order is cooking and baking. Lancaster Cupcake and many other local businesses are offering carry-out and delivery. They even have take-home decorating kits that would be perfect to battle the boredom with kids.

The girls had a really good time, and it was a much needed break from the regular grind of running around to various activities. When things return to normal, make a reservation!
I took the girls on a mommy/daughter date night this past January to Lancaster Cupcake at their Granite Run location. After a super busy basketball season, we just needed some time together. They each got a half dozen cupcakes to decorate with a succulent theme. We were grouped up at tables with other people, and everyone shared icing bags.  An employee demonstrated how to create different icing techniques.

I have a confession to make. I didn't read this book. GASP!! However, both of my daughters did, and they give it glowing reviews. So instead of my input, I'm going to sum up their review of the first book in this middle grade Wendy Mass series. It's a perfect combination for a blog entry about sweets. I debated using Charlie and the Chocolate Factory as it's an absolute old favorite of mine, but ultimately decided to give my kiddos the opportunity to be the book reviewers.
Kid Review Summed Up:
Four kids enter a competition to make their own candy. The winner gets to have their candy creation made for the public. Each of the kids narrates his or her own view of the competition. One kid, Phillip, is really snobby. Daisy is a spy. Logan is the real candymaker's son. Miles is shy and appreciates the way words sound. It's really cool the way it's written because you learn secrets about the characters in each new part.  This book is exciting and makes you want to turn the pages quickly.
