No Wonder....Loom Bracelets

Last Sunday, Hermana Martha brought me a gift bracelet. It was made of some of the 1 billion loom bands we have as a gift from supporters back East, and is very pretty.

 It reminds me of spring with all the bright colors, and as I was looking at it, I realized I might be able to make more loom bracelets myself. Keep in mind that I do

I helped her today with the sweets for the weekend, and every Saturday I help I will share the recipe(s) of the day. Today, we made a peach pie with a crumble topping, and some home made zucchini quick bread. We started with the pie, because it could cook while we prepared the bread. For the pie all you need is a pie shell and peach pie filling, and for the crumble topping all you need is one stick of butter (1/2 cup), a package of graham crackers, and 1/2 cup of sugar. You can either place the pie filling in the pie, then work on the crumble, or vice versa. Just make sure to preheat your oven to 425ºF. (We made the crumble first.)
