Like I said yesterday, I’m trying to “think outside the box” as we cook (almost) every meal at our house for the next couple of weeks. Check out Day 1’s post and what I made. Today’s kitchen challenge: Use the can or box of food in your pantry that’s oldest but not expired Let meContinue reading “Kitchen Challenge Day 2: Use the can or box of food in your pantry that is oldest, but not expired”

Days 6 & 7: COVID-19 Whatever You Call This Time at Home with Kids
I’ve been calling what we were/are doing with our kids homeschool. I get it that it’s not homeschool because what homeschool parents do is way cooler than anything I’m coming up with and includes field trips (although digital field trips now abound). So, whatever it is we’re doing, we’re all doing the best we canContinue reading “Days 6 & 7: COVID-19 Whatever You Call This Time at Home with Kids”
COVID-19 Homeschool Curriculum/Checklist for Pre-K, 3rd, and 5th Grade- Week 2
My goodness, how fast things are changing in our world. Minute by minute you hear more updates. However, what hasn’t really changed that much is what we’re doing here at our house. We’ve still been reading, playing games, jumping on the trampoline, and cooking some amazing meals. I honestly meant to get this done earlierContinue reading “COVID-19 Homeschool Curriculum/Checklist for Pre-K, 3rd, and 5th Grade- Week 2”
COVID-19 Homeschool Schedule Revised for Week 2- Split for Littles and Bigs
Raise your hand if this new need for homeschooling has been as much of a lesson for you as it has been your kids! I can’t see you but, if your hand isn’t raised and you’ve been homeschooling this week, you’re probably lying (unless you were already doing it and then you may be laughingContinue reading “COVID-19 Homeschool Schedule Revised for Week 2- Split for Littles and Bigs”
Day 1: COVID-19 Homeschool Begins
We survived Day 1. Or at least until 5:45ish, which is when I had a few minutes while the kids play happily (for the most part) and Garen is cooking dinner. You may have missed my post from yesterday about our COVID-19 schedule. Since I posted that, I’ve seen a lot of posts joking aboutContinue reading “Day 1: COVID-19 Homeschool Begins”
Mommy Review Monday: Decluttering at the Speed of Life: Winning Your Never-Ending Battle with Stuff
Every year I set goals for myself at the beginning of the year. Original, right??? One of my goals this year (and, honestly, the last probably 10 years) is to declutter. However, we’re in the process of potentially closing on a new (to us) home. With that, we will likely be selling the home we’reContinue reading “Mommy Review Monday: Decluttering at the Speed of Life: Winning Your Never-Ending Battle with Stuff”
Whoooooo are you?
Figure out who you are and then do it on purpose. – Dolly Parton Such a fantastic quote. It is tomorrow’s quote of the day for Tuesday in my planner. I just recently watched the popular Netflix movie, Duplin’. It was fantastic. I’m not going to say much more because I hate spoilers but thisContinue reading “Whoooooo are you?”
Mommy Review Monday: Full Focus Planner
I have mentioned in a few of my previous posts that I use the Full Focus Planner. I happened upon this wonderful thing on one of the many podcasts that I listen to. It’s been wonderful for me. Here’s what I like about it: It’s black and non-discrete. There’s a lot of flashy journals outContinue reading “Mommy Review Monday: Full Focus Planner”
Wellness Wednesday: Eating Healthy on the Road
I’m on the road a lot for work. Eating healthy on the road is hard. Extra hard when you love food and you use food as a way to keep you entertained and/or you have a 3-4 hour drive. Here’s what I’ve been doing lately to make it work: Pack my lunch and snacks when IContinue reading “Wellness Wednesday: Eating Healthy on the Road”
Snacking Healthy: Salted Chocolate Coconut DeLight
My adventure on Noom and my new healthy lifestyle continues. (if I was saying this out loud I would’ve used air quotes around healthy lifestyle) And as I continue to Noom right along, I’m learning how to better use my very limited calories to the ensure I’m satisfied from not only a hunger standpoint butContinue reading “Snacking Healthy: Salted Chocolate Coconut DeLight”
