YUM!

We have been reading the chapter book Katie Kazoo Switcheroo-Don’t Be Such A Turkey! In the story, Katie’s class visits a Wampanoag & Pilgrim Village, where they enjoy eating vegetable stew and cornbread. We decided to join in and have a feast of our own. Mrs. Hines quickly realized she should have doubled the recipes!
