Posted in WFMW

Here's a recipe for the peach cobbler that my 10 year old makes for us: 1 bag frozen peaches (she uses almost the whole bag, original recipe calls for 2.5 cups) 1c. sugar 1 c. self-rising flour 1 c. milk 1/2 c. melted butter Mix together peaches and 1/2 c. of sugar. Let stand. Preheat oven to 350. In a separate bowl, mix together remaining sugar, flour and milk until blended. Stir in melted butter. Pour batter into a greased pie pan. Spoon peach mixture over batter. Bake for 1 hour or until golden brown and bubbly. Serve with ice cream or Cool Whip. For other great ideas, check out Rocks in My Dryer Subscribe in a reader

WFMW: Sending Cards
Posted in WFMW
|
I am not a big card sender, mostly because I hate spending $3 for a a piece of paper. Heavy, pretty paper, but $3 is $3. For $3 more I could get a better present. But sometimes, you really need a card. So I bought a lot (not as in alot, many but a lot as in a box of cards) on ebay. They came with their envelopes. Some I will never use, but for pennies apiece, who cares? The kids can use them in crafts. Now when I need a card, I just dig through my lot and find something appropriate. Works for me!

WFMW: Art Museum with Littles
Posted in WFMW
|
We are going to the art museum this week because Spenser needs to go to meet a requirement for his Boy Scout merit badge. Since I have a variety of ages in my own family (plus I am babysitting this summer), this is what I do. I go to the gift shop first when we get to the museum. I buy a (different) postcard of a painting in the museum for each child. They get to hunt for their picture while we browse the museum. Sounds simple, but it is enough to keep them engaged and interested and it makes a nice souvenir to bring home afterwards. For more tips, check out Rocks in My Dryer |
