The Best Rolled Sugar Cookies
Make sure that you put these in the fridge before cutting, otherwise, you have pretty sticky dough. Also, I would suggest making these about 1/2 inch thick, as 1/4 inch thickness resulted in a lot of breakage. We used 'The Sugar Cookie Icing' recipe from this site for decoration, and the kids loved "painting the cookies". They now beg to do this on every holiday. We originally used these to make Father Day tie cookies, and he LOVED them. :D They weren't too sweet, or too dry.

Grilled Brown Sugar Pork Chops
I give this a four star because my kids did not like the sauce (they thought it was waaaay too sweet). My husband and I enjoyed it immensely, and couldn't wait to gobble up the leftovers. :D What we did differently due to our picky eaters is to place the sauce in a gravy boat and let everyone choose if they wanted the sauce or not. Weirdly, the kids loved the sauce on top of their salads. Go figure. Enjoy!

Spiced Pumpkin Seeds
These are tasty and addictive. HOWEVER, they are VERY salty and greasy. Everyone who became hooked on these had cracked lips after day #2, and the kids didn't want them at all. I roasted some pumpkin seeds with just a sprinkling of salt later in the week, and the kids scarfed those down.
