May I vent for just a moment?
So, as you all know, I love our public school. I’ve given you all innumerable reasons why that is so and, as I’ve said, our school rocks. It truly does. We have wonderful teachers and opportunities.
However.
I was not exactly amused [...] If you haven’t heard that bottled salad dressing has some junky stuff in it, you’ve probably been living under a rock. I kid. But, seriously, it seems everywhere I turn, someone is waxing eloquently about the ills and evils of buying a bottle of ranch.
They’re not wrong:
There are [...]
I’ve been foraging! This has been long-time, semi-secret dream of mine. For whatever reason, I’m positively fascinated by the idea of eating weeds and invasives.
This week will include just a couple recipes involving foraged food, but I really do hope to become more knowledgable in that arena. You can find [...]
Hey there! So, I’ve got a bad case of Spring fever and I’m too entranced by sunshine and birdsong to think super clearly. I asked myself, “What on earth do I have to say that’s funny or profound today?” Answer? Nada.
So I decided that I’d just take you along with [...]
It has been glorious around here! (My apologies to those of you still looking at snow– surely Spring is right around the corner!)
I compiled the month’s menu plan and did my “big” shopping trip last week. On the plan this month? Quite a few sandwiches, since we have lots of [...] Sundays are wacky around here. Because we go to church so very early, we wind up eating “brunch” at about 9:15 in the morning. Obviously, we can’t then make it all the way until suppertime without eating something.
Often, we’ll have popcorn and yogurt or some such simple thing. But, on days [...]
I’m not going to lie to you all– I’m glad last week is over!
All went well, but it was definitely a busy one. The funniest moment, for me, was when I was flying from CCD (where I teach and my children attend) at 5:24 pm to make it to the [...] There’s a reason Nestle Crunch bars have been around for a gazillion (okay, 76) years. They’re really tasty! They’re simple and universally pleasing and rare is the person who declares, “ew, I hate Crunch bars.”
What would make them better? Darker chocolate, perhaps.
I’m also a huge sucker for chocolate covered [...]
It’s busy, busy Spring!
Spring Break was lovely, but now it’s done. This week marks opening day for baseball; our first game happens to fall on the same day as my last church school class for the year, so I’ll be running like a wild woman. C. also starts back at [...] I’ve been eating a lot of egg dishes for breakfast lately. Mainly, this is due to the fact that I discovered that my energy levels stay much more consistent through the days if I avoid grains for breakfast and lunch. Maybe I’ll write more about that some other time but, for now, I’m [...] |
