After several weeks without an oven, we finally bought a new stove! I put a lot of thought into what kind of stove I wanted. I share more about what I bought and why over at my post Tips for Buying a Stove
Holocaust Days of Remembrance
The Holocaust is something that no one can ever forget. No matter your religious affiliation, or no religious affiliation. We must always remember.

Saturday on the Farm – Garden Tour
I was able to get a little work done outside this week. The kids and I, ok, mostly the kids, spread newspaper and cardboard over this butterfly garden in the front yard.
Tips for Buying a New Stove
After over 15 years of service from my stove, it’s time to buy a new one. There are just too many things to fix on the old one to make it worthwhile. I have used this stove multiple times a day for 15 years. Cooking for up to 9 people at a time, on a daily basis. We also make a good portion of our own snacks and baked goods. That’s a lot of use for a stove.
Before I actually set foot in a store, I did a few things to make sure I got the stove I needed, for a price I was willing to pay.
The Wise Woman with Literary Analysis Journal Questions – Review
I recently received a copy of the book The Wise Woman with Literary Analysis Journal Questions to review. The Wise Woman was written by George MacDonald. For this version, Stacey Farrell has added literary analysis questions to each chapter.
The Wise Woman with Literary Analysis Journal Questions is available from Home School Adventure Company. The ebook download, like I received, sells for $14.95, and the 160 page print edition sells for $28.95. You can view sample pages on the website.

I recently had to throw away my electric sauce pan. My mother in law gave it to me for Christmas quite a few years ago. I didn’t use it very much at first. Then I discovered how great it is. We use it at least once a week to make macaroni and cheese in for lunch. The recipe I use has you put the macaroni and water in, then you cook it until the water is absorbed. No draining! Perfect, since the kids usually make it. Even though they are teenagers, I still worry about them burning themselves while pouring a big pot of boiling water into the colander. I also use it for big family meals. It’s perfect for keeping gravy or vegetables are the right temperature.
Saturday on the Farm – Strawberries, Asparagus, Kittens, & Snow!
Spring in Kentucky has turned into a roller coaster event. First, snow and cold. Next warm, sunny weather, in the 70’s. Then the very next day, it’s in the 20’s and it’s snowing! True story! lol
In between the snow and the cold, we’ve started working on the gardens.
