The last day of the week in my kitchen turned out to be the busiest of all! Earlier in the week our car broke down, so this morning I had to get up early and take my husband to work in our other car. I was back home before dawn.
To tide me over til breakfast, [...]

My husband and I are homebodies. If given the choice, we’d prefer to stay home and read. While this isn’t necessarily a bad thing, our three children love the outdoors, and we don’t want them to be stuck indoors for their entire childhood. Unfortunately, our little town doesn’t have a decent playground, so going outside [...]

For some reason I woke up this morning feeling like I hadn’t eaten in days — I was so hungry! So I made an extra large bowl of the usual oatmeal and ate the usual banana. Why be exciting when you can be boring, right? The only excitement was from a small cup of unsweetened [...]

Every home chef seems to have their own preferences on menu planning. I vacillate back and forth but mostly cook by the seat of my pants. On the one hand, prepared menus prevent staring at the fridge with no inspiration whatsoever, but for this season of life I find a planned menu more of a [...]

This morning was oatmeal again. I usually eat a banana either for breakfast or mid-morning snack, but unfortunately the bananas I bought last week went straight from green to brown, leaving me in the lurch the last few days. Brown bananas are not my thing.
Since the only fruit we had in the house was apples [...]

The year we began homeschooling, I was rough on myself as a teacher, and on Isabelle as [...]
