Had a busy day with Emmie and Katie. Got Katie's school supplies and some new running shorts and tops. We also got a new kitchen toy, a pie maker. Picked William up at home and came to my house to play with our new stuff. Getting those school supplies and sorting through them is better than Christmas. Then we played with the pie maker and made chicken pot pies for lunch, steamed chicken breasts in broth, made a thin white sauce, added the cooked chicken (glad I made an extra chicken breast for the kids to nibble on) and sweet peas to the sauce. We made the crusts out out of a tube of crescent roll dough, cut out and put the bottom crust into the pie maker, put 1/2 c. filling in the bottom crust and put the top crust on each of the pies (makes 4 at a time) closed the lid and baked for 10 min. William and I each ate 1 and Katie and Emmie ate 2, we had to make a 2nd batch. Then we peel-ed peaches, sauteed the slices in butter, added sugar, lemon juice and corn starch and cooked til peaches were done. We used regular pie dough and made little pies. The kids took 5 home and left 3 for me and grandpa.
It's so nice to have a grand kid that can drive, she took a couple of items back to the store to exchange for different size. Target has a wonderful return policy, love that.
No sewing but a busy, fun day and Emmie is such a great cleaner upper. Thanks sweetie.
