Here is a really cool website to register on…
You can use an alias if you are under the radar or just don’t want to use you name and you can list yourself as a homeschooler in you region and maybe find other homeschoolers… the site is also a way to see how many homeschoolers there actually are…
it is free and it takes just a few minutes…
I took some time this weekend to got through some of my favourite pics from my trip to BC… I still have a few that I would like to put up also but it is a start…
I also wanted a place to add the pics so that my favourites are all together…
So here they are if you want to check them out…
My mom and Grandma came over today…
My Grandma doesn’t come often so it was really nice to see her…
I took some pictures of her because everytime I see her I just think she looks amazing…
She will 85 next month….
with my mom…
I love days like this…
I got up this morning and started my turkey stock for the turkey and dumpling soup that I made for supper…
Cleaned the kitchen, made oatmeal for the boys and toast for me…
Swept and cleaned the floors…
Cleaned the dishes and started the dishwasher…
Made the boys beds…
Made lunch…
and then cut the boys hair… (then swept again…lol)
Then I made the Turkey and Dumpling soup which turned out amazing!!
Not to mention that I am now writing my third blog post… lol
I wanted to go swimming but I got to the pool but it was closed… I really hate that pool…
Anyway… here are some pics of the boys…

and though Khéna didn’t get a haircut… I can’t leave him out 🙂
I have been missing making sourdough bread for a while now… my starter died when I was pregnant with Khéna… so I have been trying to make some sourdough starter again…
The first attempt…. failed… just failed… no idea what happened…
The second attempt… put too much water by accident while feeding it and didn’t catch my mistake… no go…
Third… I decided to try cheating and starting with a bit of yeast… foam… looking good… then flat… dead…
Fourth… mixed some flour and water and just let it sit… fed it and slowly I saw bubbles… after about a week I wasn’t getting more but I knew there was potential… so I added about 1/4 tsp of sugar and it doubled within the hour…fed it again the next day with flour and water and it foamed again… and it is perfect!!!
So I have been making sourdough again…
Knead and let rise until doubled…
yummy!!!!
