These "chalk" bags are so ADORABLE! The idea came form my super crafty friend's blog, Polkadot Notebook. You can use these for lunch or any special occasion. The possibilities are endless! I'm going to try these with colored chalk paint next. Maybe red for Christmas and Valentines Day? We'll see...
These are a little pre-Thanksgiving treat for my homeschool leadership team. I baked some yummy Pumpkin Bread from All Recipes.com, but adapted it to be gluten free and used stevia instead of white sugar.
