We wrapped our week up in Massachusetts with the baking of a Boston Cream Pie!! One of my favorite desserts!
One of the crafts that I was going to do, but didn't get to is a craft on the Mayflower. THIS is the one I was going to use.
This is a lot of fun. I love history - and the Boston Cream Pie looks YUMMY!
