June 18, 2015 at 6:05 pmMaybe it is just be but a couple you posted twice. That is one fantastic list of items. I did the the Flag out of flat and I had so much fun doing it. The one I would like to do this year to take my husband’s cousin’s that does the 4th is the rice crispies because my husband can’t have flour. So that would be perfect. Thanks for sharing.
