🎉💖 Mrs. Thomas' class had a fun-filled Valentine's Day celebration! 💖🎉
The students learned how to make heart-shaped quesadillas and indulged in some scrumptious chocolate mug cakes! 🍽️🍫 It was a day full of creativity, laughter, and tasty treats. 🧑🍳❤️ Thank you to the Woods County Extension office for letting us borrow their heart-shaped cookie cutters and Mrs. Hurst for letting us use your FACS kitchen.
Happy Valentine's Day from our class to yours! 💌
