With my over-productive Zucchini plant I needed to come up with something other than zucchini bread. I especially wanted something that I could pack in the kids lunches now that school will be starting back up. Here's what I came up with. These are moist and cake-like, I think they'd be great with cream cheese frosting.
Zucchini Cookies
1 cup sugar, 2 cups grated zucchini, 1/2 cup shortening, 2 cups flour, 1 tsp baking powder, 1 tsp baking soda, 1 tsp cinnamon, 1/4 tsp salt, 1/2 cup raisins (or however many you want).
Mix all ingredients and bake in a 375 oven. If you use a Tablespoon to make the cookies bake for 12-14 minutes, if you use something smaller bake for 8-10 minutes.
Here's a card I made with my Cricut - No stamping necessary!!
Here's my first Christmas card of the season. I usually make a dozen or so before I find the one I like. Thanks to my new cricut, this card was very simple!!

Here's what my kids did last weekend!! We saw this on Instructables. It's called a Kid Wash 2. It's just a mister to walk, run, ride your bike through on hot days. My son is 14, my daughter is 11 and they spent about three hours total on this with minimal help from dad.
