Straight from the Freezer – Turkey Pot Pie Recipe

There is something to be said for having food in your freezer so you can easily pull meals together.  I love to stock my freezer with pre-cooked beans (I cook dry beans weekly), and frozen vegetables. I have found that the ability to pull items straight from the freezer helps me get a healthy meal on the table in no time! Now, obviously, putting together freezer meals would save me … [Read more...] about Straight from the Freezer – Turkey Pot Pie Recipe

I didn’t start my seeds last winter; I thought I would buy seedlings instead.  The time to buy seedlings came and went.  I said I would pick strawberries to freeze and turn into jam, we … [Read more...] about 4 Tips to Prepare your Kitchen for Winter

31 Days – Green Juice Recipe

    I absolutely love documentaries, especially documentariesabout food.  I remember the first time Isaw Food, Inc.  I’m pretty sure that onedocumentary changed the entire course for me as far as food goes.   Several years later I watched another great documentarycalled Fat, Sick & Nearly Dead.  It was really interesting to see thecorrelation between animal products and health, but the one … [Read more...] about 31 Days – Green Juice Recipe

September Theme – Apples

When I first started planning out this homeschool year, I thought themes would be a great way to give the kids a direction for monthly projects.  Monthly projects are something that I have wanted to do with the kids for a while now, but we have never been able to give it the attention that I wanted.  I always want to give freedom to the kids in what they are learning and working on, and … [Read more...] about September Theme – Apples

When I was choosing curriculum for this coming yea When I was choosing curriculum for this coming year I thought I was totally on top of things, just to realize when I was laying everything out that I totally forgot to get science for my 7th grader. 🤦🏼‍♀️

We chatted a bit about what he wanted to do, and what he decidedly DID NOT want to do, and we came up with the #scienceunlocked kits from @homesciencetools 

I am sharing an unboxing of the four kits we chose as well as my first thoughts. 
You can find the video at the link in my profile.

I think that it is going to be a great science year for him!
