MPE-Member Project & Evaluation Evaluation

4-H Project: Foods & Nutrition

Years in Project: 3

Overall, I made 4 different projects for the Foods and Nutrition 2. First I

made Peanut Butter Cookies from my Grandma. I had never made this type

of cookies before, but they seemed easy. After that I mixed up some sugar

cookies from Betty Crocker. We would always make these cookies for

Christmas time, so it wasn’t that hard to mix them up and bake them. After

all the cookies were done, I made banana nut bread. The recipe was not

hard at all. I learned that it was easier to cook banana bread in smaller

loafs, instead of filling most of the tin. My last project was a Jewish

coffeecake. This recipe was pretty straight-forward. You pretty much just

mixed up everything with no big, important conditions.

Christine did such a great job in foods and nutrition this year. She did a lot of cooking with her grandma and at home. She takes her time and has learned a lot. We enjoy eating what she makes in our house!
