B is for Baking

Kimberly Rock, the proud mother of a Kellogg kindergartner, sent in the following report and pictures.

You may have spotted the Kellogg kindergartners on Monday traipsing down Main Street hand-in-hand on their inaugural field trip of the school year. They were led by former-fifth grade-turned-Kindergarten teacher extraordinaire Candy Stiewing (pronounced “STEE –wing”), veteran teaching assistant Cristine Dakers and a couple of chaperoning parents.

Mrs. Stiewing and Mrs. Dakers are teaching the newest students at Kellogg about “community”. And what better way to start,then to visit Jason at Sweet William's Bakery? Owner Jason Young had the children eating out of his hand. He charmed them with stories of his earliest baking memories with his mother and said that some of his best recipes are variations passed down from her. The gigantic mixer was a crowd pleaser, and the kids enjoyed taking turns cutting out cookies from fresh dough–but if you asked the five-year-olds what their favorite part of the trip was, you’re most likely to hear about the yummy taste of Jason’s delicious creations.
