I'm curious what resources you're using for things like math and dictation (are you using Spelling Wisdom or just choosing something each week, etc.). Anything in particular for Bible, memory, poetry, etc or just choosing as you go? What about geography and science? And, written narrations ... are you just letting Ella choose what she will write from? Thanks so much! You really know how to simplify and make it feel calm (or at least appear that way). :)IrieMommahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03258172576178100573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9672908576255934.post-26050775258968689242014-03-31T15:26:02.603-07:002014-03-31T15:26:02.603-07:00Sandi-

I am often thankful that we can all eat the same foods as a family- no gluten-free or any allergies or anything here. So I think it's amazing when people like you can pull it off. Blessings to you and I do hope you're better, friend!<br /><br />~StacyStacyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02291035676569127788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9672908576255934.post-25382460910768434202014-03-31T15:23:41.024-07:002014-03-31T15:23:41.024-07:00Henna-Maria,

I am so happy to learn that! :) Any time I've read that in a book I've always assumed it was some fancy variety of meat! Thanks for the link to the recipe. And I'm so happy to hear about the lemon squares! YUM!<br />Blessings to you, sweet friend.Stacyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02291035676569127788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9672908576255934.post-33294936558633415042014-03-25T08:36:36.791-07:002014-03-25T08:36:36.791-07:00Loved seeing another day in the life :)

I did however buy, slice and freeze all the ingredients for my daily fruit and veg smoothies for the next 10-14 days. That counts as food prep right? I do eat a bit different the. the rest of my family which gets to me sometimes. The benefit out ways the extra work most of the time. We are on spring break this week for which I am thankful. A bad week of insomnia and now a chest cold makes this week off all the more needed. All those extra projects will have to wait.

Sorry! Mince meat was supposed to read minced meat which is a British way of saying ground beef or hamburger. I'm married to a real American, but some words I have learned the British way before we even met and they are so stuck in my vocabulary. Words like hoover, for example. I hoovered our bedroom today :) <br />Thank you for being interested in the Finnish dish. I found this recipe in English, but I never use nutmeg in my casserole. http://www.food.com/recipe/finnish-macaroni-casserole-suomen-makaronilaatikko-427599<br />As you can see, I forgot to mention the cheese. You are right about wanting the real recipe! <br />And inspired by you, I made lemon squares (same as lemon bars, yes?) and they were sooo good. My family thanks you :) <br />Blessings to you as you mother your beautiful children!Henna-Mariahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13210447166363186496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9672908576255934.post-58880306073231581142014-03-22T22:50:04.754-07:002014-03-22T22:50:04.754-07:00Henna-Maria,

And I *always* forget about lentils. We do love lentils and have two good recipes for them. Macaroni casserole sounds intriguing, but I'd be scared to try it without an actual recipe, and can I just say that I have NO idea what "mince meat" is?! ;) Do tell. <br />Blessings to you and yours, <br />~StacyStacyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02291035676569127788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9672908576255934.post-28204887586458315602014-03-22T22:47:13.642-07:002014-03-22T22:47:13.642-07:00I like YOU.I like YOU.Stacyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02291035676569127788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9672908576255934.post-68804266177389272882014-03-21T23:23:40.893-07:002014-03-21T23:23:40.893-07:00Hi Stacy!

Lemon bars sound delicious though and I might have to bake some today! <br /><br /> Last 3 meals were had were....Fried rice (with corn, kidney beans, onion and kielbasa), spicy Indian style lentil and potato soup (I try to make it less spicy for kids) and I usually mush it and top it with sour cream...and Macaroni casserole baked in oven, Finnish style. Basically I just boil macaroni, fry mince meat and mix them into the oven dish with half a liter of milk and three eggs, salt and pepper (like in quiche). It's kids favorite and sometimes I use taco spice to make it a bit more tasty. I like oven food! You can start it in the morning and it will be done and waiting for you at lunch time!
