How to Meal Plan from your Food Inventory

Last week we talked about food inventories and why they are important to keep, especially in current times, I thought it would be good to go through how to create a meal plan from your food inventory. Several years ago, I tried to start meal planning, however, I was (and still am!) horrible at it.  The reason was that I enjoyed cooking so much that I never wanted to make what I had on my … [Read more...] about How to Meal Plan from your Food Inventory

How to Create a Food and Household Inventory

Recently, I decided to refresh my food and household inventory.  I wanted to write down all the food that we had on hand.  Part of that was because we just moved, and I needed to know what we had (spices, we only had spices) and what we needed (everything else).  Soon after, we began to see shortages of some basic items that we were used to easily getting.  Things like … [Read more...] about How to Create a Food and Household Inventory

Revamping the Kids’ Routines

We are completing week five of our homeschool year today!  It seems a little crazy to me that we are already five weeks into the school year, but here we are.  When we start school, we always like to ease back into our routine.  While we school all year long, there are definitely periods of more subjects and work overall, and fall is when this most definitely happens. I noticed that we needed … [Read more...] about Revamping the Kids’ Routines

*Update* Using an Erin Condren Teacher Planner as a Homeschool Planner

I have wanted to do an update on using my ErinCondren Teacher Planner as a homeschool planner for a while now, and could not seem to manage it!  However, I have received several requests recently for a peek inside the planner, and more information about how I use it for homeschool planning, and I decided now, at the beginning of our new school year, was the best time.   I first … [Read more...] about *Update* Using an Erin Condren Teacher Planner as a Homeschool Planner

As we think about getting back to homeschool, I ha As we think about getting back to homeschool, I have been researching @studydotcom a lot. They offer options for your homeschooler to earn college credit while in high school, and I am thinking about this for my high schooler. 

I also really like all of the options to supplement our homeschool curriculum with their video lessons and study guides. I think this is going to be a huge help as we move through high school! 

They have options for kindergarten through college, so really something for everyone!

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!
