Kanin’s Gingerbread Man

Kanin Koller: Age 6

Ingredients

A bag full of sugar

2 C. flour

2 purple gum drops

Frosting for a face and eyes

10 chocolates

Directions: Get a gingerbread slicer and a tray. Mix the dough with the chocolate before you slice it. Put the gumdrops on and the frosting for his face. The gumdrops go on his chest and bellybutton. Set the oven to 10 degrees. Put them in for 10 minutes. Take them out and wait for them to cool. It makes 20 gingerbread men. I have a lot of visitors at my grandma’s and I want everybody to try one.

Abbygail’s Turkey

Abbygail Gingerich: Age 6

Ingredients

9lb turkey

A little salt

1Tbsp sugar

2 pieces of gravy

Directions: Put the turkey on the grill and then shut the lid. The grill needs to be about 15. That is hot! Wait for a little bit for it to get hot and then when it’s done you will see that it’s brown. Take it off and set it on the table. Add seasoning. Cut it with a knife. My mama has a big knife with a square and ovals. Look inside the turkey. My dad always says, “hey, that’s gooood!” Then you can eat it with your family.


Jake’s Vanilla Ice Cream

Jake Ledgerwood: Age 6

Ingredients

1 scoop of vanilla

2 scoops of milk

3 cups of sugar

Directions: Put all of the ingredients in a bag. Any bag you can fit them in will work. Stir it two times and then you zip the bag and put it in your freezer. You have to put it in there overnight. You can’t eat it until it melts a little bit because it is really hard. You can put it in a cone or you could just go to Meyer’s. They have ice cream there.

Brooks’ Peach Pie

Brooks Smith: Age 5

Ingredients

30 peaches

1 cup sugar

2 cups flour

2 eggs

Directions: Cook the peaches on the stove in water. Cook them for 10 minutes. Then make the dough. Add some salt, and then add the eggs and sugar. We need a mixer to mix dough up. Slice the peaches or if you buy them sliced, take off the skin. Throw the pits away. You could use a fork to put the peaches in the dough. Put the pie in the oven for 30 degrees for 10 minutes. Take it out of the oven and put the bottom and sides into a little thing or a big thing, then put the top on it. Cut it into 1 piece and eat it with a fork.

Autumn’s Bino Turkey

Autumn Dixon: Age 5

Ingredients

1 30lb bino turkey

2lbs of salt

2 bottles of syrup

Directions: I have to hunt the turkey with mommy or daddy since turkey season is open already. Shoot the turkey 3 times and then put it in the back of “Doofer”, that’s my dad’s pickup’s name. Take it home and cut it up in half and take all of the skin off. Take the feathers off. Cook the turkey for 5 minutes. Set the oven for 78 degrees. Put the salt and the syrup on when it comes out, add some sprinkles too. Put the turkey in a plastic bag. I am going to bring it to school. I’ll give the leftovers to my family.

Miles’s Scrambled Eggs

Miles Bean: Age 6

Ingredients

20 eggs

1 chop of butter

3 slices of yellow cheese

3 shakes of salt

4 shakes of pepper

Directions: Heat the pan and then put the butter on. Crack the eggs on the side of the pan and there are little cracks that can just pull apart. Now put on the salt and pepper. Wait for one minute and then scramble them with a spatula. Wait another minute and then scramble them again. You can tell it is done when you smell it. Put them on a plate or in your cold lunch.

Maggie’s Cranberry Sauce

Maggie McKeehan: Age 6

Ingredients

1 can of cranberries

1 Tbsp. cold water

1Tbsp. sugar

Directions: Put the cranberries in a bowl and pour the water in. Next, put in the sugar. You will put it in the fridge and let it sit until Thanksgiving Day starts. You can shape it into whatever shape you like. I like mine circle-shaped because I can make it into pizza slices. Serve it on a plate and eat it with a fork.

Everly’s Cookies

Everly Phelps: Age 6

Ingredients

10 chocolate chips

Dough

1 Cup of flour

A lot of sugar

2 eggs

Directions: Get out a plate. Put the dough on the plate. Shape the dough into a circle and cut in the middle of it (it’s like you’re making an eyeball) keep that piece of dough. Put those two pieces in the oven. The oven needs to be set at 10 degrees. Cook the cookies for minutes. When they are done, take them out of the oven and put them on a plate. Put the chocolate chips in a bowl and put the bowl in a microwave so they get warm and melt. Then pour the melted chocolate chips in hole. You can also use any kind of nuts that you want. Put the dough on top to patch it up.

Keaton’s Blueberry Pie

Keaton Petty: Age 5

Ingredients

9 blueberries

1 tsp salt

1 scoop of sugar

1 cup full of milk

1 pack of dough

Directions: First make the dough. We need milk, sugar, salt and blueberries. Put them in a bowl and stir about one minute. Heat the oven to 100 degrees. Put it in for 4 minutes and then take it out and put the blueberries on it. Drop them on. Let it sit for a minute and then it’s done. Add some frosting to the top around the blueberries.

Redington’s Eggs with Toast

Redington Shaver: Age 5

Ingredients

4 eggs

4 bread

4 white cheeses

Directions: You need to get a spoon and a fork to eat this. Get out a pan to crack the eggs and put the omelet into the pan. Turn on the stove. It is hot when both of the rectangles are red. Stir the eggs up until it turns into another egg omelet. This is really cool. Put the bread in the toaster. When it pops up you take a plate and then get the toast out and put them on the edge. You take the pan and poor it onto the bread and get cheese onto the omelet. Eat it with salt AND pepper. That’s how I like it!

Gus’s Deer Jerky

August Feider: Age 5

Ingredients

Jerky Grinder

1 big deer

Directions: First, we are going to shoot the deer and put it in the freezer to cool off. When you pick the deer up to put it in the grinder it will be wet. Put the deer in the grinder. The grinder makes it flat. A friend will catch the deer on the other side and then go outside and shake off the wetness. Cook the jerky in a jerky oven. Set the oven for 20 degrees. Cook the jerky for 10 minutes. Put the jerky in a big tub, then take it to school.

Landon’s Chocolate Chip Cookies

Landon Gilbert: Age 6

Ingredients

½ C. Flour, in the middle.

14 Chocolate Chips

4 C. totally full of sugar

1 egg

Directions: We have to put the flour in a mixing bowl and also do the chocolate chips and the sugar. Get the stirring thing and stir it. Crack the egg and pour it in. Stir it and mix, mix, mixy, mixy, mix. We need to bake it in an oven at 40 degrees for 1 minute. Eat them all.

Isabella’s Stuffed Turkey and Gravy

Isabella Gephart: Age 6

Ingredients

1 15lb. turkey

3 shakes of seasoning

10 potatoes

A couple balloons, tied to plates

Some Fruits

Directions: Get a turkey from Walmart and some seasonings. We are going to heat the turkey up when we get home and the potatoes. The oven is 15 degrees. The turkey might taste like chicken, but that is okay. If you want a turkey leg, it’s big and some of the kids can eat it. I can’t because I have a loose tooth. Keep the turkey in the oven for 20 minutes. Let it cool off. Take the balloons, make a hole in a paper plate and tie balloons to them. Put the potatoes on the plate. Add gravy to the top because that’s extra good or you can have macaroni and cheese with ketchup on it.

Easton’s Potatoes

Easton Curnutt: Age 6

Ingredients

1 pinch of pepper

1 pinch of salt

2 packs of potatoes

2 packs of bacon

Directions: Take off the peel of the potatoes. Cut them up with a knife and cut them into slices, across. Boil them in hot water for 20 hours. When it is done take them out and let them sit and let the water soak out. Then we will warm them up in the microwave. Sit and wait. After the stuff is done put on the salt and pepper. The bacon goes with the food. Don’t use bacon bites, use the big strips. When they are done cooking in the oven, it will go ding, and it’s still not hot we can put it in the microwave. Add blueberry juice to drink with this.

Aurora’s Sweet Potatoes

Aurora Reed: Age 6

Ingredients

1 bag of marshmallows

5 potatoes

Orange stuff

Directions: Take the skin off of the potatoes with a potato skinner-cutter. Cut them up with a normal knife. Then mush them up. Put your ingredients in a bowl and add the orange stuff and the marshmallows. Stir it up for 3 minutes. Put everything in a pan and put it in the oven. Set the oven for 9 degrees and cook it for 9 minutes. If this doesn’t work out put it in for 5 more.

Brantley’s Cheese Bread

Brantley McKeirnan: Age 6

Ingredients

3 slices of yellow cheese

5 breads

6 C. Water

Directions: Buy your stuff at a grocery stop. Bring $6.00. Take the breads out of the bag and slice it into pieces. Slice it into 4 pieces. Then slice your cheese into 3 slices. Get some water and put it in a measuring cup. Pour it in a bowl with the bread and cheese. Use a turning-thingy and it will make it into a big bread. Put it all in the oven for 7 minutes at 5 degrees. Take it out, use gloves, slice it into pieces so everybody can have some.

Justin’s Scrambled Eggs

Justin Rager: Age 6

Ingredients

A whole carton of eggs, or 3

1 stack of butter, or 3

3 bottles of salt and pepper

Directions: First crack your eggs onto a pan and put it on the stove for 10 degrees. Let it sit on there for 2 hours. Watch it and make sure it doesn’t burn. Make sure no one else, like a baby, tries to touch the pan because they could get burned. While it is cooking, put the butter in. It will start melting into the eggs. Take the eggs off and put it on a plate and put the salt and pepper all over it and it’s ready to eat.

Nicky’s Garlic Bread

Nicky Lyman: Age 6

Ingredients

9 pieces of garlic

9 shakes of salt

3 loaves of bread

6 star flakes (they come from space)

Directions: Chop the garlic up with a knife. Set the oven for 10 degrees and put the bread in, on a big pan. Keep the bread in the oven for 10 minutes. Open the oven and take out the bread. Let it cool down and leave the oven open for it to cool down. My mom does that sometimes. Set a metal timer and put the bread in the microwave for 10 seconds. Put the garlic, salt and star-flakes on the bread. Put water on it too to make it better. Get a cup of water to help the bread not get stuck in your throat.
