I *Heart* Twaddle

During our first year of homeschooling, I have really been struggling with figuring out what approach I am taking. It’s not so much that I feel like I need to put a name to it, but I am just trying to figure out what works best for us. I have been pretty interested in Charlotte [...]

Encouraging Kids to Try a Wider Variety of Foods (WFMW #65)

I have a confession to make about something that is working for me. And, do you know what? I refuse to be ashamed. I have begun bribing my kids to eat fruits and vegetables, as well as to try new foods. Yep — I pay them, and I am not shy about telling you that. [...]

It’s Left Me in Stitches

My Tackle It Tuesday for this week is actually one that I have been working on kind of off and on over the last two weeks. I keep meaning to post about it, because it’s one of those things that I thought about tackling for ages, and am so pleased to have finally jumped right [...]

Menu Plan Monday: January 26th Edition

Wow! Check it out — I’m actually putting up my menu plan again! And, for the first time, I’m attempting to plan out breakfast and lunch too. So, it may not be exactly what we end up doing, but it’s an experiment to see if it helps at meal times. Main dishes only, typically, are [...]

Many Little Links: The Lesson Planning Edition

Since we got back from Florida, I haven’t actually sat down to do lesson planning. Bad…very bad. Oh, yeah, we’ve still been schooling, I have just been planning one day at a time. And, let me tell ya — it’s not a pretty way to do it. It’s tiring. So, I’m relieved to have done [...]

Super Duper Chocolate Kiss Cookies

For our Christmas baskets/platters in 2008, one of the goodies that was included (that we froze ahead of time) were Super Duper Chocolate Kiss Cookies. I read about them in a magazine called Christmas Cookies and they were billed as a cookie to make with your kids, since they used premade cookie dough. I will [...]

When Did I Become a Granola Eater?

I was recently contacted by Kim from Zoe Foods about trying some of their granola, and I just couldn’t say no.
