The Great Pumpkin Cheesecake Experiment

We made hair ties with ribbons and elastics, and so we all looked very professional when we cooked! We made pumpkin cheesecake filling using pumpkin, brown sugar, cinnamon, cloves, ginger, cream cheese and cream. We mixed it up with mixers and then spread it between two pizzelle cookies. Every group decided their own balance of sweet and spicy, and most girls seemed to think it was pretty delicious!

We also practised some of the songs for the campfire.

Upcoming events:

Sleepover on Friday night! If you haven't had a chance to get your forms back, PLEASE either call Captain or bring them on Tuesday night to the Brownie meeting at Arbor Glen. We need to know before Friday!

Sleepover will start at 7 pm. We will not serve dinner, so make sure you eat before you come, but we will be providing a snack. Pickup is 8:45 am. The forms are posted so click on them on the left side menu if you need to see them again.

Next meeting will be on Monday, October 19.

Giant Campfire will be on Wednesday, October 21, at Sunnybrook Park, Leslie and Eglinton. You don't need forms for this because you need to have a parent or other adult with you. Wear your uniform shirt and tie over your jacket or sweater!

Cookie Sale at the Don Mills Subway will be on Thursday, October 22, 4-6 PM at the subway station. Forms for this will be given out on the 19th.
