Our Homeschool Studio

I've been a little neglectful in posting here. We've been a bit busy with finishing up school and trying to do a deep clean. I have found I have way too much stuff laying around to actually deep clean. So we've backed up a step to de-clutter and clear out the excess. We tend to keep a lot of things 'just in case'. Well, so far we have rarely done anything with these things so they need to be freecycled, Goodwilled, or just trashed. Actually, we do have one more option. No, it is not hanging onto it--just in case :-) In our area we will be having a Junk in the Trunk sale to raise funds for midwifery in our state. We are still struggling to get a bill passed to legally recognize CPMs and all of the training and hard work they do. I have also recently found out that I was selected for the next voyage of the Homeschool Crew. I am really excited about the opportunity. I will be posting my reviews here as well as on my Facebook page. I hope they will be of benefit to others. This week we have been scurrying about getting things ready to have a birthday party for our middle daughter and only summer baby. She will be 5 on June 1st so her party will this Sunday. It is a family party with all of her grandparents and great-grandparents and a few aunts and uncles. I hope the weather will be beautiful as forecast as we will be outside. I hope you all enjoy this late spring/early summer weather. Blessings! |

I am hoping this will be fun--blogging. I have found so many great blogs with inspiration and encouragement. I hope I can return some of that to anyone who might stumble upon my little spot here. I love all things kitchens. Before becoming a wife and mama I was a kitchen designer. I still love perusing kitchen displays at Lowe's and reading kitchen design magazines. Whenever I have some free time I like to draw out plans too. Yes, I know this is a little odd and yes I am okay with that :) I also love creating yummy food in my kitchen--much to my family's delight. My latest interest has been on healthy eating. I am trying to learn as much as I can about various 'superfoods' and other things for improving or maintaining our health--without costly supplements. We try to live a natural if not organic life. Our garden will be organic. We couldn't call if officially organic though due to the farmers in the area and their use of chemicals on their fields. Anyone know what we can plant along the shared boundary to try to shield our property from their chemicals? We raise goats and chickens for meat and eggs. Eggs from the chickens, not the goats I hope I haven't bored anyone. I need to get busy in the kitchen. I'll be back to post more as my time allows. Blessings! |

We don't have any dairy animals because my husbands grandparents were dairy farmers and could rarely leave. We generally do not go anywhere anyway so maybe we can add this in the future. I would love to at least find a source for raw milk-preferably cow as we prefer the taste. I have found the easiest recipe for making yogurt and would love to try my hand at making cheese. I'll share the yogurt recipe in a future post.
