I cannot stress enough how much I love the Fall!! Especially for one suffering from hot flashes, the cool, crisp air is a blessing from my precious Lord! On that note, I am enjoying a cuppa of my homemade pumpkin coffee. Yummy! I simply put my favorite coffee, Chock Full Of Nuts, into my brewing basket. To that I add about a teaspoon of cinnamon, 1/4 t. cloves, nutmeg, and ginger, with just a pinch of allspice. I mix that around and voila! Pumpkin Coffee! Once that is poured into my favorite mug, I will often add sweetened condensed milk. Wow! So delicious! This is to be savored sitting in a comfy chair, curled up under an afghan, with a good book in the peace and quiet. Nice!
I have been busy dyeing roving and knitting swatches of my yarns for my shop. Getting ready for the fall/winter selling season. You never know what a yarn will look like when it's knit or crocheted. Hopefully this will help.
Last evening, I discovered, what I think, is a wonderful Science website, Physics4kids . They also have Geography4kids, Biology4kids, Chemistry4kids, and a link to a really good math site - Rader's NUMBERNUT. My sweet hubby wants me to start teaching some serious science to our 4th grader, Ben. So, we are going to start Physics. Just a basic class - nothing too involved, but he wants Ben to have a general knowledge of motion, matter, speed of light, etc. I am pretty convinced , right now, that I am definitely am going to go for DVD courses in science when he gets older. I was pretty good in Biology, Earth Science and basic Physics, but to get an in depth education in Chemistry and Physics will require DVD teaching!
As far a our organic, healthy way of eating, it's coming along. The trouble is leaving home. When we go to anyone's home or church for meals, it's tough, mentally, to stay the course! However, we are doing much better than we were a year ago. Now,I am going to be forced to stick within my $60.00/week budget! I will post my menu for this coming week, along with my grocery list. Then, I'll let you know how I did staying in my budget. I love the challenge!
