Summer

 I am so excited for spring and summer. I’m doing my best to enjoy winter, snow, breath in the cool air, have the fun light from the fireplace going, the heater on, cuddle in blankets, but I am missing spring and summer! How about you?

So here are a few pictures to get us through…

Meal Planning

  I have always had a hard time deciding on what to make for dinner. When I would finally decide, then it would either take to long to make, or we didn’t have everything we needed. So then I’d have to make something out of what there was, or go to the store and end up spending more money because we would grab lots more things.  So several years ago I decided to make a dinner calendar. I found a template in Excel, you can change the year and the days automatically change, and the squares are blank so you can type in the meals. Then once a week we would go to the store and get everything we needed for that week of dinner meals (and anything else we needed). It helps out so if the dinner takes time to make (crockpot, make bread, etc.) then I can start in the morning. Also, we are only going to the store once a week so we spend less money. We are all picky eaters (in one way or another) and some of us have allergies (shellfish and garlic) so it limits our choices. When we find a m...

Home School Lunch Ideas

For the first time our kids are taking a home lunch to school! I’m having such a hard time finding things to send with them. I don’t want them to have the same thing every day, that’s so boring and gets bland. But so far Zain has been fine with peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. Lydia and Tyler on the other hand want something more than sandwiches. So… I’m going to compile a list of main lunch ideas, some snacks, sides, treats, and drinks. That way I can remember everything and mix and match. We will have them pick one item from each list (2 from sides and Fruit/veggies). Please Note: Our children are picky eaters. So this is a list of stuff our children will eat. There are so many ideas on Pinterest, that include a more wide variety of foods (such as tomato and feta salad, humus, and more) that our children won’t eat, and quiet frankly we (Nick and I) won’t either. 🤣  Main Lunch Ideas: Peanut Butter and Jelly Turkey Sandwich Cheese Sandwich Spaghetti  Buttered Parmesan Nood...

  I know most people cringe when they hear dad jokes, but I find them funny!  Like the jokes they say on the jungle cruise ride at Disneyland and the ones in the movie. lol Here are some dad jokes that I found on the internet. Dad Jokes: "Dear Math, grow up and solve your own problems!" "What did the janitor say when he jumped out of the closet? SUPPLIES!" "I asked my dog what is two minus two? He said Nothing." "I got carded at the liquor store, and my Blockbuster card accidentally fell out. The cashier said never mind." "I don't trust stairs.  They are always up to something." "What do you call it when a snowman throws a tantrum? A meltdown." "What concert costs just 45 cents? 50 cents featuring Nickleback." "What does a bee use to comb it's hair? A Honeycomb."
