Wow, there has been some good stuff appearing in my mailbox lately! Aimee’s cookbook is the latest, and if you’re passionate about feeding your family whole, real food you must check it out. 

Colorful and inspiring, I’ve already made plenty of messes trying out recipes (made the BEST brussels sprouts ever!).

I’ve made several purchases through Educents over the past year – it’s a good site to bookmark for the future, as they offer significant discounts on popular homeschooling products and curriculum.

My latest buy there was Life of Fred Intermediate!
