The Bread Baking workshop was a success. It was held on Mardi Gras holiday but King Cakes were not the only type of bread that was made. The 4-Hers made pretzels, cinnamon rolls, tortillas, and some students opted to turned their yeast rolls into dinner rolls. Click on the link for recipes from the workshop.

Exhibitors and their families enjoyed the "kick-off" event for the 100th anniversary of 4-H in Louisiana by visiting the 4-H Celebration Stations at the Central District Livestock.
