I successfully baked another winner-of-a-recipe this morning. This time the recipe was from Jenny over at Runningamuck which she called "Big Daddy Biscuits." I put this biscuit recipe on my list of 13 Blogger-tested Recipes, but I hadn't made them as of that post. But now that I've made them, I think I'm in love! […]
Hail Kate, Giver of Delicious Cinnamon Roll Recipes!
I made cinnamon rolls this morning using a recipe Kate at A Simple Walk emailed me, and they turned out soooooo good! If you missed the cinnamon roll recipe in my post earlier this week, I've posted it here again for your palate's pleasure. Thank you, Kate! I'd like to say that these cinnamon rolls […]
How to Teach Basic Geography Without a Curriculum
It's easy to teach geography without buying a formal curriculum. We've done it for years by making our own homemade geography lessons with an atlas, maps, flashcards, games and online interactive sites. I've always loved geography, but I wasn't very good at it until we started homeschooling. In fact, I've learned more in the last […]
Thirteen Delicious Blogger-Tested Recipes [Fifth Edition]
I've been trying to do a lot more baking lately, and I've had several of my blogging friends recommend recipes for me to try. So for today's T13, I thought I'd post 13 of the recipes I've collected over the past several days (as well as a couple oldies) that I've either made or plan […]
Grilled Pork ribs with a Good Rib Rub
Buying pork ribs on sale made it necessary for us to find a good pork rub to use for our grilling. We managed to grill pork ribs this evening. We've never attempted it before, but I picked up a package of boneless pork ribs for super cheap a few weeks ago, and since I'm trying […]
Homograph sentences to read and enjoy
Beyond our homophone list and into homograph sentences. My dad sent me this useful list of sentences that use homographs—words spelled the same, but pronounced differently. The list would be great to have kids read aloud for practice. The bandage was wound around the wound. The farm was used to produce produce. The dump was […]
Homemade Olive Garden?
This afternoon my husband (bless him!) informed me that Olive Garden—which happens to be my absolute favorite place in the world to eat—has posted many of their delicious, delectable, scrumptious, succulent (and fattening) recipes online at their website. Woohoo! I know what I'll be trying out in the next few weeks.
It Ain't Pizza Hut, But At Least It's Edible
Today I tried to make a homemade pizza from scratch. I hate to admit it, but I had never made any type of yeast bread before today. Sad, I know, but I've always been afraid to try my hand at making bread with yeast. Well, that, and I have such an issue with instant gratification […]
Hello. My Name is Joy, and I'm a Chocoholic.
Beyond being a chocoholic, I often have a powerful hankerin' for peanut butter, too. So what could be better than chocolate and peanut butter together—in a snack that's actually good for you? I know it sounds too good to be true, but I assure you, it's not. Now I do admit that this snack is […]
Geography Curriculum Software
I like free and downloadable interactive curriculum aides! I'm in homeschooling heaven! Why? Because I've recently discovered yet another great resource that makes my life as a homeschooling mom a little easier—and my kids even learn a lot, too! I'm talking about Seterra, which is a great geography program that I've recently downloaded onto my […]
