Finding Fabulous Food, Photos and Crafts to Share
This is the recipe I make any time I have a cold or the kids are getting sick. Generally, this happens a couple of times per year — once at the beginning of the school year and another time late winter. I drank this once a day for 3 days and just had a little …
This week I have been reading “Masters of Medicine” by Andrew Lam. If you like history or medicine, it is a really good book! If you get squeamish….it might not be a great pick. It covers the discovery of insulin, penicillin, forceps, washing your hands!, the polio vaccine, and tests like the Pap smear. These …
BOOK REVIEW: The following book I highly recommend to ANY TEACHER OR PARENT: Ron Fournier writes a deeply honest and poignant story about his son Tyler who has Asperger’s. However, this is not a book about one child and one disability. Fournier ties together research from psychology, education, popular culture and …
Woo hoo!! The studio smells like fresh new babies again! 🙂 This is Baby Bryce – sweetest little guy who loves to lay on his side. I think I smelled like new baby all day – sigh. The official day of summer is almost here! Next Monday – but you can make this yummy dessert …
Good morning everyone! It was a little disappointing this morning after yesterday’s beautiful “hamster sized snowflakes” fell from the sky. But, this smoothie will make up for that! This smoothie was created to use up my favorite super foods in the refrigerator and to keep us all healthy this month. It seemed many were falling down …
Books: Book Club is reading “The Silver Star” by Jeanette Walls. It may sound familiar because she wrote the book club classic “The Glass Castle”. Great story so far about two girls in a not so great situation with their mom and they find a new path to take. For non-fiction, I have The …
I hope everyone had a fabulous Fourth of July! What I learned this week: -Aldi has wild caught salmon for $3.99 per bag of 4 filets. Sounded awesome… and WAY cheaper than Costco. Then….. I read that it is a product of China. -Watermelon is a fruit AND a vegetable! These fruit/vegetable debates are about …
Exercise: I like this Upper Body and Cardio workout because you get upper body strength training in while also doing cardio intervals. The upper body strength training usually doesn’t make you sweat, but alternating like this helps gets your heart going. If you are stuck in the middle of nowhere and can’t jump and can’t go …
Granola works great: on top of yogurt, on baked fruit as a crisp topping, in a fruit salad, muffins, with milk, making homemade granola bars, or I just consume copious amounts out of it from the pantry. This granola muffin recipe is amazing! It must start out with GOOD granola though. The granola is the star of …
“Meet Me in St. Louis” is over! I have my life back! 😉 Our book club book for this month is “Stargirl” by Jerry Spinelli. I finished watching “Fed Up” on Netflix. It has been released for a while now and worth watching. The basic premise is that the American public has been told …
