I don’t know where the summer has gone, it’s almost away in a flash! We’ve been busy this year with our first big camping trip, biodiversity summer school, and of course lots of great reviews have kept us on our toes. Now I’m starting to think about how I can plan out our next couple of months (sure, I’d settle for a couple of weeks), and I’m going to get back into menu planning again, including after school snacks.
Things always are much easier when we all know what’s coming up. And of course, part of that means our menu has to include healthy snacks for the kids as well as the parents. Growing bellies get hungry here in the morning, and I need something to get me through the mid-afternoon slump. But we’re getting bored of the same old usual ideas. We need something different to add to our repertoire.
I blog to share our family and homeschooling experiences. I love to share what we’ve been up to.
