Teacher/Staff Appreciation

 It's Staff Appreciation week across the land! 

I feel beyond grateful for the wonderful staff that is within my daughter's school district. Her teacher this year makes me want to be in 3rd grade myself! I admit to being sad that the end of the school year is fast approaching....

So we made the staff Coconut Lime Sugar Scrub! Head over to The Idea Room for the recipe (and the printable)! I used my doTerra lime essential oil, so this is an edible sugar scrub. Not that we licked the bowl.

Nope.

Okay- we totally did. It was DELISH!!!

I gussied them up with some parrot green May Arts Twill & tied on the tag with parrot green burlap string.

And check out what my sweet girl came up with on her own! She's been making rainbow loom charms like crazy- so she made some pencil charms for some of her faves! Her teacher is a huge Sounders Soccer fan- so she used those colors for her pencil. On the back she wrote:

"Thank you for il'loom'inating our lives"

I kid you not. That girl has the sweetest heart!

And then I made a lemon glazed lemon pound cake. I hope they liked it. I did a trial run of the recipe over the weekend & it didn't come out of the pan clean so it was a hot mess- but a delicious hot mess!! 

:)

It's been pretty busy around here! Doesn't leave any time for visiting sweet friends' blogs- but I know this time will go so fast & trying to cherish every moment....
