Not Good Enough…Just Good

" And God saw that it was good." (Genesis 1:10c) This is how the book of Genesis describes how God saw His work at the end of the second through 5th days of creation and midway through the 6th day. He saw what He had done and it was good. Like the wonderful example...

Muffin Hack – The Magic of Add-Ins

I have a confession to make. I love muffin mixes. :0 Yes, me, the person who likes making everything from scratch. I know that it's simple to make muffins from scratch and that they are way better for you. (I do still make banana muffins from scratch, because I don't...

Egg Rolls

One of the things that I miss a lot since I developed my onion allergy is Chinese food. After some trial and error, I have come up with a tasty homemade version of some of my favorites - egg rolls and stir fry. This recipe for egg rolls is easy and much healthier,...

School Gardening at Home

Reflections on the First Year of Homeschooling

We survived the first year! The kids and I covered more than I would have ever thought possible - and they remember a lot of it! I had 3 main goals when we started - get them both reading well, and writing well, and teach them math. I knew that if I could teach them...

Teaching My Preschooler to Read

DS started kindergarten last fall. DD was still in preschool but wanted to do real school like her big brother. For a week or two, I tried some of the ideas that I read on various blogs and homeschooling sites for keeping younger ones occupied (special school time...

Super Easy Venison Meatballs

I don't know about your kids, but mine LOVE spaghetti. Spaghetti night is one of the few nights when everyone eats happily with no complaining over the menu. As of now, Ragu makes a sauce called Super Chunky Mushroom that doesn't bother my onion sensitivity. Prego...

About Me

Here’s a little background on us (me in particular). I have wanted to live on a farm for as long as I can remember.  As I moved from childhood into adulthood and eventually parenthood, my idea of what I wanted changed significantly.  When I was 8 years old, suffering...
