Today I thought I would share something a little different from I usually share.
Happy Birthday to my Amazing Sister
Month: February 2015
Peekaboo Mitts
Previously I shared a Button Tab Hat I knit for my niece. To go with it, I made a pair of matching fingerless gloves. She absolutely loved them.
It’s a trap
I love working with the Patriot girls in our AHG Troop. I’m in no way biased when I say, we have the best group of girls around. Recently they completed the Home Care and Repair Merit Badge. I tried to explain to them that the material covered in this badge would help them in life.
Last week I came across a Facebook post in one of my homeschool groups that exemplifies this perfectly. I opted to share it with them and you.
Tin Punch
Tinsmithing first became popular in England around 1630. Tin was the poor man’s silver. In the early 1700’s during colonial times, tin became popular in America. Tin was inexpensive, lightweight, easy to clean and durable. Popular uses for tin included lantern covers, fireboxes, and fronts of pie safes.
Minestrone Soup
Today is Homemade Soup Day – can you guess what’s for dinner?
Minestrone soup is a favorite around here. This super quick recipe has become a staple during winter months. I can keep all the ingredients on hand (except the spinach- which is optional). And it cooks up quick, which is very important for my busy family. It is a complete meal in one bowl.
