BASEBALL & BAKE SALES

Two things Grandma J thought she knew all about. You know how it works....you make some three hundred cookies or cupcakes and sell them for fifty cents. At the end of the day, you have enough money to go have pizza to pay the entry fees for the next tournament two states away.

Since the ball players had to actually do all the selling because the fathers were busy negotiating a group rate at a hotel for the team and family members, and the mothers were busy practicing Karaoke washing uniforms and packing for the upcoming tournament weekend.



So, A-Ron asked Grandma J to make something different...and by different he wasn't talking about Grandma J's famous fortune cookies. He wanted her to make something special that would taste good for a change. One of his favorite snacks.... So she did.

First you melt stuff......

Then you make it blue.......

Then you add secret ingredients and ....Voilà! You have a Cookie Monster Rice Crispy Treat.

Or two. A-Ron hawked them off for $5 each. He said they sold like hotcakes and he could have sold ten more.

Now, let's play ball!!
