Cookies!!!!!

Support Nottingham School and buy a tub of "Be Sweet" cookie dough from my kiddos.
I have to say, normally I would never bug people with these school fundraisers but they look so good!

There are 5 different kinds:
Snappy Jacks- spicy molasses and ginger cookies
Hunka Chunka Do Da Day- traditional chocolate chunk cookie w/ extra sweet chocolate
Straight Up Peanut- peanut butter cookies
Rush Hour- Chocolate, espresso and cinnamon
Birken-Cookie- granola cookie w/ nuts, oats and sweet maple syrup(made in Nottingham)

I guess these are made very locally and fresh. Let me know if you want to order and I will mark you down. They are $8.50 each. You can make checks payable to Nottingham School.
Here's their website: http://www.besweetcookiedough.com/

America's Next Top Model

Erin was in a fashion show for her Daisy Girl Scout Troop. Their theme was princesses so Erin wanted to wear her Snow White Halloween costume. They were all so cute and it was Erin's first time on a stage. She really liked it and said she wasn't nervous at all. Maybe some day she'll have Tyra's job???

She got her "Fashion Show" patch for her smock.

Brookie dressed for the occassion too.
