This Week:
What I'm Cooking:
We thought we'd try a new recipe this week so we picked out a recipe for Sesame Noodles with Snow Peas and Carrots. It was fun, a good experience with my daughter in the kitchen, and we spent time just chatting and being together. However, as we were putting the finishing touches on dinner, I looked at her and said, "What a minute! Are we making Pad Thai?" And no, I know it wasn't exactly Pad Thai, but it was VERY similiar. So after all that, we ended up making a dish that is VERY much the same as something that's already a family favorite. So, so much for trying something new. :-)
What I'm Reading:
Currently, Gone-Away Lake with my 7th grader. He sort of fought me on it when I brought it out as our next read aloud. I don't even know where I got the idea from, but I found this title and wanted to give it a try. The first chapter was a little slow, but after he gave it a fair shot, we found that we both really love it. I'm enjoying this one so much. It's sweet, wholesome, ... so good. I hear there's a sequel, so I'm on the lookout for that one as well. But I can't recommend this one highly enough.
What I'm Doing:
We're on Spring Break this week and I'm absolutely confused. I confess that I've wasted too much time this week 'cause I can't keep track of days or times.... this whole week has been a blur. I pulled out my Spring Break To Do List this morning and realized I haven't gotten anything done. The rest has been nice, but I have got to get on some planning and grading today to get ready for Monday.
What I'm Enjoying:
Time with my 12 year old...
Trying new things...
Lunch with a friend...
Missionary biographies...
Planning for 2024-25...
What are you up to?
