Emma and I attended a bridal tea last weekend. It was hosted in a beautiful house and it was full of beautiful ladies and girls of all ages. Everyone came together to celebrate the upcoming wedding of a sweet, young couple.
I was asked to make the cake or petit fours. I have tried many times to make petit fours and they are always a flop. I really wanted to learn to make these so I tried again. This time I achieved confectionery VICTORY!
These are almond apricot petit fours.
I monogrammed them with a “D”, using buttercream icing for the groom’s last name.
A petit four is a small cake that can be eaten in one or two bites.

Titus 2:3 says that we are to be
"...teachers of good things...".
We believe that part of these good things are practical skills that we all need in every day life to care for our family and neighbors.
One of our primary responsibilities as parents is equip our children with the skills and tools to one day be productive, well rounded adults. Children need to be exposed to many different areas of work. Not only should they know how to work, but they should want to work.
May the favor of the Lord our God rest upon us;
establish the work of our hands for us-
yes, establish the work of our hands.
Psalm 90:17
