VeryVera Cooking Camp

Manners Monday: Wait until everyone is seated to begin the meal. Did you know that proper etiquette says you should not start eating until everyone at your table is seated? This shows respect for those around you and affords your host the opportunity to say a blessing or few words of welcome to the group prior to beginning the meal.

Manners Monday: Don’t forget to clean up! Keeping a clean home or workspace is an important habit to cultivate in your young person! Not only does it help cultivate responsibility, it also promotes cleanliness and food safety in the kitchen! That’s why we take the time to ensure we’re cleaning as we go throughout our time both in and out of the kitchen.

Creativity Corner: Ghost Meringues These Ghost Meringues sure got us in the spooky-mood at our first Spooktacular Saturday Camp! The meringues themselves are easy to make with a combination of egg whites, sugar and cream of tartar, which gave us extra time to work on our presentation! Each camper got to individually package their best looking meringues as we discussed why it's important to take pride in your appearance and how this extends to giving thoughtful gifts.

What’s cooking Wednesday: Halloween Treats! Feeling a little crafty? Well we’ve got the treats for you! These Marshmallow Pop Monsters are so fun to decorate and make the cutest presentation, and these Monster Munch Mix hands are the perfect sweet and salty mix for your tastebuds!
