For me, when it comes to back-to-school breakfasts, the key is finding something ...
1. my kids will actually eat.
2. quick.
3. painless to prepare.
4. nutritious enough to quiet my inner mother-guilt.
Here are some recipes I have been researching lately that I think fit the bill:
Cornbread (even kids... READ MORE

Bloody Bandages and Imagination

(See writing sample at bottom of post)
My kids like to write and share stories with each other and their friends. I don’t think too much about it, especially in the summertime when we take a break from official “schooling.”
The other day, though, when I happened upon 11-year-old Ambrose’s writing notebook which had been left open to this page, I paused. I read these few lines and could not help but... READ MORE

This weekend I was blessed to attend my college reunion.
Not my class reunion, but the reunion of my entire college, a now-defunct school that has a total alumni population of only a couple hundred people.
