Grandkids and Callydoodles

2 of my 5 grandaughters were visiting with me several weeks ago, and as per my usual 'Dodo' activities, we decided to make cookies! The older of the 2 grandaughters, who considers herself most wise and authoritarian is Jaycee.

The younger middle of the pack child, Cally, who is going through the 7 year old geekypest stage and is AKA as 'little Dodo' wanted chocolate chip cookies (my personal choice ;)

But the older one insisted that they were too sweet. She chose Snickerdoodles (to me the sweetest cookie going but nobody asked me ;) This of course outweighed Cally's choice. Enter sad face, she's used to coming in second or third place :(

Enter happy face! Cally said 'Let's put chocolate chips in some snickerdoodles.' What a great idea, Cally YAY! How to make 2 girls happy with one recipe. I'm all over it. Until....Enter my BIG sad face...

I look in my cupboard and have no shortening, no butter, very little flour and no eggs! Chocolate chips I have plenty. So this is what any THRIVE grandma would do...

I get out Butter powder, Rice flour, Egg powder and Shortening powder, all in my THRIVE homestore. I mix them Snickerdoodles up quick!

(just tilt your head to the right to copy)

Roll them in cinnamon sugar...

Dot them with chocolate chips...

And Voila' you have CALLYDOODLES!! And 2 happy grandaughters! You can fill your own Homestore with these recipe lifesavors right here.

Now just add Milk! Or THRIVE instant milk if you have run out!!

Thought I'd use this space to tell you what's new from Shelf Reliance. I just found out today that they will be unveiling new shelving systems that have cupboard doors on them! Yep if you don't have pantry room or don't want the look of open storage shelving in your kitchen, these might be perfect for you. Also there is a new fuel storage system. These are cedar/paraffin patties that will cook very hot for about 40 minutes. They come in 32 and 90 patty boxes. Fuel storage is difficult. Mountains of split wood to store. Propane tanks. Etc. These are compact and make a great addition to your preparedness stash! And last of the new, MRE's. With the heating unit inside. 12 new flavors.
