Creative Meals

Sometimes it is fun to make meals extra special by adding a little creativity. Just recently Jennifer and Daniel made ordinary food extraordinary.
One night, we made pancakes. They were looking really good. Then Jennifer had an idea. She pulled out a couple small bottles of food coloring, and began dripping little drops of the coloring on the pancakes. She made a lady bug pancake 
, a smiley face pancake, a swirl pancake, and a heart pancake. They looked so neat.
A couple days later, Daniel surprised us with extraordinary eggs. He took metal cookie cutters, put them in the pan, and cracked the egg inside the cutter. They turned out really well. He made Christmas Trees, Angels, Camels, and Gingerbread eggs.
Using ordinary things for extraordinary purposes reminds me that God can use an ordinary person like me to do extraordinary things with Him.
Hannah, Thank you for being extraordinarily ordinary. I like your post. God has already used you powerfully to minister to your family. Your joyfulness is a blessing and evidence of Christ in you the hope of glory. Thank you for showing gratefulness to those who creatively served you. Love Dad
I’ve been thrilled with your all’s creativity. It is neat what a little extra effort can do to create a special memory. Those indeed were eggsciting meals!
What fun and such a work of art! We’re going to try that cookie cutter egg idea.
Wow! What fun! Way to be creative, Wilkesteam!
