If you’d asked me 2 months ago if I’d be at home with my kids EVERY.SINGLE.DAY. for 4 glorious weeks, I probably would’ve laughed at you. But here I am, rocking it. And if you believe that, you’ll also probably believe me when I say that I’ve been working out everyday and that I amContinue reading “COVID-19 Our Education at Home Week 4, including Easter Photos to make you smile”

Kitchen Challenge Day 8: Bacon makes everything Better
Bacon does make everything better. We can all use something a little “better” right now. Want to make veggies taste better? Add some bacon. Add a little crunch to a sandwich? Just add bacon. It also happens to be something I tend to always keep in my fridge- both uncooked and a big bag ofContinue reading “Kitchen Challenge Day 8: Bacon makes everything Better”
Kitchen Challenge Day 7: The Musical Fruit (AKA Beans)
Beans, beans- The musical fruit. The more you eat, the more you toot. The more you toot, the better you feel. So, eat your beans for every meal. We don’t eat beans every meal but they are a big player in our house and I often make at least a batch once a week. ItContinue reading “Kitchen Challenge Day 7: The Musical Fruit (AKA Beans)”
Kitchen Challenge Day 6: Eat Leftovers
How’s that for lazy? Yes, I’m talking to myself but I’m also talking to you. Eat those leftovers. Waste not want not. I hope you all had a great weekend!
Kitchen Challenge Day 5: Cook Something with Fruit In It
It’s Saturday and hopefully your week has slowed down now like mine has. I slept a little later, although sleeping late is still about 7:30 or 8 since the littles don’t get the concept yet. I’ll take what I can get. It’s been a great slow day with a nice rain/hail shower to go alongContinue reading “Kitchen Challenge Day 5: Cook Something with Fruit In It”
Kitchen Challenge Day 4: Cook one of your grandmother’s recipes
It’s Friday. I’m actually surprised I can remember what day it is in the middle of this COVID19 haze we are all in. However, I remember for one main reason- it’s grocery delivery day at our house. After my last trip to Kroger, surrounded by everyone else that could not seem to keep their distance,Continue reading “Kitchen Challenge Day 4: Cook one of your grandmother’s recipes”
Days 8 and 9- I’m the energizer bunny that seems to need re-charging
We’re on tail-end of Week 2 of our COVID19 experience with the four kids here. I’m still going but I feel like I’m starting to run low on batteries at this point. I’m actually starting to feel more like the wind-up little chicks that a lot of us had as children. Every day I windContinue reading “Days 8 and 9- I’m the energizer bunny that seems to need re-charging”
Kitchen Challenge Day 3: Make a baked or fried breakfast or snack food you’ve never made
Kitchen Challenge Day 3 is about to begin: Make a baked or fried breakfast or snack food you’ve never made Thursdays at our house used to be “donut day.” I was reminded of this by my kids multiple times last week and I told them the Donut Palace was closed due to COVID19, whether that’sContinue reading “Kitchen Challenge Day 3: Make a baked or fried breakfast or snack food you’ve never made”
Winner, Winner, Chicken (Sausage) Dinner
Tonight I did Kitchen Challenge, Day 1: Use a spice you’ve never used. My spice choice was marjoram. I’ll admit that I had no idea what it tasted like. I actually had to look it up and found out that it is very similar to oregano. Here’s a great website to learn more about it.Continue reading “Winner, Winner, Chicken (Sausage) Dinner”
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”
