The elementary school where I teach Pre-K is having a Winter Festival to raise money! Each grade level is asked to create a themed "basket" for the silent auction. We invite parents to donate to help purchase the items. I made the apron with a matching towel to include in our "Gator Gourmet Bowl". Our mascot is the Alligator.
My teaching assistant and I searched the internet for "gator" kitchen items! We found the cookie cutter (http://www.thecookiecutter.shop.com/ ) and oven mitt (http://www.cajunfoodandgifts.com/)
Sugar Cookie Mix, green sprinkles, and a silicone baking mat complete the collection. Shall we start the bidding?Ya'll Come Back!

This is SUCH a great idea! I love it. Thanks for dropping by and for your comment. Comments make me smile. I was noticing your deadly chocolate muffin recipe last night as I was surfing. My husband made some chocolate, chocolate chip muffins this week but I told him we may have to try yours as well. Have a great night. Kelly
ReplyDeleteWho knew there'd be so many gator related goodies? We don't see many gators here in Utah except in the zoo or when they come to play football. Your valentine tree is the cutest. Mimi
ReplyDeleteThat's a great basket! You are sure to get a big bidding war on it!
ReplyDeleteGator Gourmet, you did a great job on that apron. I bet the cookies will be so cute. Who knew gators were so popular outside of Florida. I like your Valentine tree, very cute. I wish I had one!
