Kelly Biedny Kids Cooking and Food Network

On Saturday, November 7, Food Network had a cooking with kids day. I saw Paula Deen and the Barefoot Contessa. Paula was pretty good, Ina Garten, on the other hand was, let’s go with ‘interesting’.

Kelly Biedny Super Delicious Sites

I’m always looking for recipes that would be feasible for the kids and I to cook together. I find tons of great recipes, but some of those I like are a bit complicated. To make the recipes two kids cooking friendly, I end up adapting various recipes to come up with something easy to cook with kids. But as I’m browsing the web for inspiration, I add many sites to my Google Reader list, so, during this season of thanks, I’m going to share some of them and offer them a great big ‘Thank You’ for ins… Continue

Ivy The Why Behind the Message

Churches today spread the message of Christ very differently. Some focus on worship to carry their services, others use video to illustrate the sermon topics and issues relevant to today’s church. Some churches rely on the traditions of the church to guide their service, while others strive to think out of the box with new and sometimes edgy material and methods for reaching their communities. I’m not about to claim there is one right way to design a church service, after all if that were the ca… Continue

Amy Kehoe Beach home devastated by Skittle

Fourth graders at my son’s elementary school conduct their own progress report conferences. They prepare for weeks and it would appear that they are getting graded on how convincing they are at being a CEO, judging by how take charge Vincent was. I did the very best Mature Mom I could muster. I didn’t want to embarrass him. He is silly at home, but when he is out he is all business. I have learned that about him and work very hard at playing along. Although, sometimes, like at this conference, I… Continue

Jane Warner Got text alerts about possible sexting

I just installed some software that alerts me when dangers are lurking around my 16 year old daughter. Sexting is an awful problem and I got an text alert that was picked out words in an Facebook post that said "photo of me". The software then showed me that it was someone who had tagged a photo of her in Facebook. What a relief to see that but also very reassuring that I can now monitor activity and keep abreast of any potential dangers. I would rather be alerted more times than not be alerted… Continue

Alice Griffin Country Girl – The People We Meet

If there is one thing I know it’s that most definitely people are generally friendlier and have more time for you in the country. Well maybe not in the country necessarily, just in places where the pace of life is a little slower. I think this is my favourite thing about our new life in England. When we left our city life in search of adventure we found many small communities in France, Spain and Portugal who seemed to have more time for each other and more time for simple activities “oh, it’s n… Continue

Melanie Derrick Warning: Do Not Tickle Your Kids!

Be careful how much you tickle your kids when they are little. When they grow bigger they are relentless. Our older 3 boys (ages 12,9,and 5) gang up on me. I start laughing before they even touch me. I try to yell and scream for help. I shout "STOP!" and threaten punishment as I back away from crazed little animals on the attack. Ready to strike with all 30 of their long claws. It's hard to take my plea's for help seriously through my… Continue
