CRANBERRY TWP — The Brush Creek Room in the Cranberry Township Municipal Center turned into into a Thanksgiving kitchen Saturday morning.

Debbi Dee and her assistant, Kelly Boyles, of Bakers Dozen Academy taught 13 girls and one mother how to bake and decorate cupcakes to look like facsimiles of holiday side dishes — such as mashed potatoes and gravy, sweet potato casserole and peas and carrots.

The academy will return to the municipal building from 10 a.m. to noon Dec. 10 for a “Parents Drop and Shop” event where young chefs, ages 6 and up, will mix, measure and make their own Christmas thumbprint cookies.
