Veterans Day is an opportunity to create some red, white, and blue treats with your family.
A Flag Cake or one of the ideas from my 4th of July Fun post are all tasty possibilities.
For a bit of history, try this War Cake recipe created during wartime when many food items were rationed.
Perhaps your family would like to bless the veterans in your community with some home-baked goodies. How about a plate of star-shaped sugar cookies topped with red, white, and blue decorations? If all that rolling and cutting is a bit much for your group, make something simpler like a batch of drop cookies, and let the children decorate white paper bags to put the cookies in with markers and patriotic stickers. You can be sure that your thoughtfulness and generosity will be appreciated no matter how fancy the cookies.
As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them. ~John Fitzgerald Kennedy
