Cub Scouts!

My husband just got called as a volunteer leader for our church to be the cub master. Lol...being an Eagle Scout himself, of course he didn't refuse despite our busy schedule.

So what does this mean for me? It means I get to be in charge of the refreshments!!

Okay. So last pack meeting was the first. They sang some "When one black bug bled blue black blood the other black bug bled blue" song (you try saying that 3 times fast) while Greg played the guitar to the tune "Ghost riders in the sky." Quite hillarious! They did it slow at first (wolf's pace) then faster (bear's pace) and the fastest (webelow's pace).

But the most important part? My cookies! I used a cake mix to make the cookies, and cut out a stencil to form the boy scout fleur de lis and a paw. I used powdered sugar to place the design and used a sifter to cover the cookies evenly. 
Today is our second meeting. My plan is to make cookies again or rice crispies. But I want to buy those licorice rounds where you can pull the pieces apart like string cheese. Then I'm going to tie different knots that the scouts learn and place them all over the treats. We'll see how it goes, and I hope there are picture to take.

Licorice didn't happen this time because they moved up the meeting an hour earlier. This is what I came up with in a hurry. Cub Scout Blue Rice Crispies with yellow sprinkles.
