Wonderful December Meals

December 31, 2020 By Annette1 2 Comments

It’s the close of a year!  Oh, the meals we’ve made over this past year.  As I sit here pondering our wonderful December meals I am also watching the Xmen movies with my family.  Every year we watch some series together and this is what my guys chose.  In the past we’ve done Lord of the Rings, and Marvel movies.  It’s a good family time!   

Anyways, on with some deliciousness eh!  🙂 

Wonderful December Meals

Meals the Lad Made

So I’ve been wanting my lad to cook at least one meal a week and it’s just been a battle to get him to follow through.   I finally said “You know what, your friends cook meals at home for their families, so you can cook meals for us too.”   He wanted to choose a mid-day to do it but I said “NOPE!  You can cook Sundays.  It’s a day I don’t want to have to fuss in the kitchen so it’s your day.”.   It’s working out really well.  A consistent day, no school to interfere, and I or hubby am around to help should he need it. 

He’s made this month

  • Manwich 
  • Chicken wings with sides
  • Turkey Croquettes.   We used this recipe that hubby found.   

The croquette recipe caused the lad to ask a ton of questions and have to do some problem-solving.  He was quite pleased with himself at the end of it and thoroughly enjoyed them. 

Turkey Croquettes

Baking

It’s Christmas… baking happened.  One needs treats for eating over the holidays even if you don’t have friends and family coming over.  

Most of the cookies we made I’ve already chatted with you all about. 

But we also did homemade turtles, dipped pretzels, and …. oh shoot.. I know I made something else but I can’t recall right now. 

Homemade Turtles, we made some with pecans and others with pretzels as the base. 

Christmas Dinner

Well.. I made the BEST STUFFING EVER!   See I don’t much like stuffing, but this stuffing was good… in the turkey and done on the stove top.  BEST EVER!

So what did I put in it?  Stuffing from a box, half pack hash browns (those diced potatoes), apple, pepper, onion, celery, carrot and various seasonings.  I made have used bouillon/chicken stock instead of water. REALLY GOOD.   I hope I can replicate it next year! 

Best stuffing ever made

Other than stuffing we also had Turkey, homemade cranberry sauce, cauliflower with cheese sauce, beans, plain potatoes, gravy, and cheese buns.  Very tasty indeed!

More Wonderful December Meals

Parmesan Herb-baked Salmon Fillet.  First time ever really cooking with a salmon fillet.  Oh my.. YUMMY!!!!!  Changes I made… I used more salmon so I needed to adapt the recipe and used dry basil instead of fresh. It disappeared too fast to get a picture.

I got inspired after visiting my mom and she had made an apple pudding.  I thought the lad’s would enjoy this meal and I was right!  Taste of home’s recipe was the one I chose to use.

We’ve made a number of hot sandwiches using bagettes.  Manwich, tuna salad, turkey fry with cheese, egg/potato hash, etc. 

Jerky!   We made both rabbit and beef jerky.   The rabbit made using a teriyaki recipe, the beef with basic jerky recipe. It was funny, the lad was threatened by his father…. for going a bit overboard on the jerky eating.  Next time we have jerky apparently the lad will be helping to make it so he knows how much work goes into it!   Tons of apologies.  I think next time sharing will happen a bit more readily eh?  🙂 

beef-jerky

In between Christmas and New Years I have to admit we did a lot of leftovers and junk food.  We did cheese and crackers, and chicken wings, and cookies, lots of cookies.  🙂 

How about you?  Does your meal planning go a bit wonky over the holiday season?  Did you make any wonderful December meals?  Do share them if you’ve a mind to.  I love discovering new recipes to make.

Favourite Christmas Cookies

December 21, 2020 By Annette1 10 Comments

The crew challenge for this week is Peppermint.  I don’t do peppermint well so this was a difficult one for me.  I finally decided to simply talk about my favourite Christmas cookies.   (and how I avoid too much mint!)  Who doesn’t like a good Christmas cookie?  I think almost every household has them.  I for instance LOVE a good lemon cinnamon cookie, but this time of year I tend to make Hershey cookies, sugar cookies, and papernauten. 

Oh… why do I tend to avoid peppermint?   Well, combine it with chocolate and you’ll find me very energetic and talking a mile a minute and then having a bad crash.  It’s fun, but yet very NOT fun. 

favourite Christmas cookies

So just why do I like baking for Christmas?  Like seriously.. with all the chocolate, candy canes, and goodies offered up… do we REALLY need all those extra calories?  We don’t!

But you know … I grew up with making cookies with my mom.  Now I get to make cookies with my lad.  In many ways, it’s a family tradition, and it’s GOOD to have those.  They bring normalcy to a season, and frankly this year, with all the precautions being taken, I feel really MEH about Christmas.  But these Christmas traditions.. baking cookies, spending time with my lad, talking together, figuring out who will do what, it makes it better.  Much less MEH!  Good tasting cookies help too!

Favourite Christmas Cookies

Over the years we’ve had students from other lands come live with us.  One year we had a very sweet Brazillian lad living with us.  He made us Brigadeiros.  These are Brazilian chocolate fudge balls.  They are extremely easy to make and VERY tasty.   They bring us such happy memories. 

You can roll them in whatever topping you like.  We tend to do chocolate and candy sprinkles, but I’ve seen them with icing sugar, cane sugar and just plain.  Apparently others do them with cut up fruit or crushed nuts, candy cane etc.   It’s up to you and your taste buds!  

Brigadeiros

We started to make Peanut butter blossom cookies… I think two years ago?  HUGE hit.  OH MY WORD… I was so surprised at how well they went over.  They are fun to make so it’s a great cookie to make with children and teens.  We have played around with different types of hershey kisses on top, and mostly prefer the plain chocolate.  This year we got gifted white chocolate spiral cookies… so we used those instead.  The pepperminty tasting ones my son stole quietly to his room.  🙂   YEAH!!   I don’t have to be tempted by something NOT good for me.  🙂 

peanut butter blossoms

We’ve made gingerbread cookies and sugar cookies.   It’s fun don’t you think to make fun shapes with cookies, to surprise a boy with a cat, or to indulge your fancy with bunnies, reindeer or snowmen. 

gingerbread and sugar cookies

Haystacks and chocolate chip cookies just for fun.  You know what I love about haystacks?   They are SO versatile.  We made our using coconut and rice krispies.  My boarder makes hers using chinese noodles, My mom using large flake oatmeal and a friend does her using oatmeal crisp cereal.    So very versatile and no need to bake them.  Just melted chocolate goodness mixed with toppings of choice.  🙂 

Yet to come

Yet to be made yet are my papernauten, homemade turtles, mini rolo cookies and dipped pretzels.  You’ll find recipes for most of these in the collection of posts below.  You won’t find much in the way of peppermint in them though!  🙂 

  • the New and Old of Christmas Baking. 
  • Christmas Baking – the boys. 
  • The Togetherness of Christmas Baking. 
  • Christmas Cookies.

So what are you baking this year?  Do you have favourite Christmas cookies that are part of your family traditions?  Share the recipe in the comments if you’d like, perhaps they will become favourites in our household too!

Santa Baby

November 28, 2020 By Annette1 2 Comments

So, I’m not this big “let’s do Santa” person.  It’s just not my thing. Occasionally though I meet a Santa book that actually has a good moral lesson behind it.  Santa Baby is one such book.   Sometimes, just sometimes, even Santa has a lesson or two to learn. 

Santa Baby

The Details of Santa Baby

Did you know the Jonathan Stutzman grew up reading Christmas books every year?  He’s finally written one of his own. He hearkens back to his own childhood as he wrote Santa Baby.    Heather Fox did an excellent job of providing the illustrations that brought Mr. Stutzman’s book to life. 

Children 4-8 years old will delight in the situation that Santa has found himself in.  It begs the question: Can Christmas be saved? What will happen with Santa?

Raincoast books provided me with an ARC copy of this hardcover with a fly picture book. 48 pages filled with all the colours of Christmas.  The elves are confounded, Santa unable to communicate clearly, and Christmas is just four days away!  Whatever will happen?

From the Cover of Santa Baby

Highlights

Ho Ho Ho is Ow Ow Ow for Santa in his senior years.  How could he, when he was so sore, deliver gifts for children all over the world?   Do you see how Ms. Fox’s illustration help to showcase the story?

Santa’s aches are pains are so obvious, you can understand his desire to be young, once again.  No more pain!  But Santa forgot, Christmas magic is a powerful thing.  How could he manage the consequences.

The font isn’t huge, but not terribly small either.  It will be easiest to read with a child in your lap, but with some prep, reading with a group of children would be quite doable.  I could just hear those children giggling.  Santa Baby is a fun read. 

Santa can’t do it all himself!  Can he figure out a solution?   Will he ever feel the wonders of Christmas again? 

Should you get it?

Seeing the tables turned on Santa, how he himself needed to learn a lesson of his own was excellent.  I think children would have a lot of fun not only listening to this story being read, but in guessing what might happen next. 

Santa Baby is a cleverly written picture book.  Humour, excellent illustrations, it’s well worth a second look.

Little Red Sleigh

November 25, 2020 By Annette1 2 Comments

Can a little red sleigh attain her dreams?  This is an adorable book that will make you smile at the end, and hopefully have a child say “Again, read it again!”.   Friendship, dreams, and help along the way, Little Red Sleigh a delightful holiday tale.  I am so happy to tell you all about it!

Little Red Sleigh

The Details of Little Red Sleigh

Together with Sourcebooks, Erin Guendelsberger has produced a lovely, sweet book filled with the holiday spirit.  Little Red Sleigh is wonderfully illustrated by Elizaveta Tretyakova.  This is a very sweet book which I adored.  A young sled with big dreams who went out after them, not letting naysayers stop her.  I loved watching the grit she showed.  

Amazon links will be used in this review.   I’ve had the pleasure of reviewing Little Red Sleigh for Raincoast Books.

Little Red Sleigh, cover information

Believe in the magic of Christmas with this heartwarming Christmas picture book about the little red sleigh that could, perfect for fans of The Polar Express!

The Little Red Sleigh has one big dream-to one day become Santa’s big red sleigh! But all her life, she’s been told she’s too small, she’s too young, she can’t fly, and she certainly can’t meet Santa. Well, this Christmas, with the help of some friends, she’s determined to do the impossible.

Artist Elizaveta Tretyakova

Tretyakova has done a tremendous job of illustrating this heart-warming story.  You’ll see brilliant red, bright snow, dark trains, and a lovely yellow truck.  Seeing the fierceness of a winter storm and rejoicing in the fun of children playing. 

Don’t you love the brightness of the colours?  

The story moves along well, not only through text, but also through the well-done images.  Her story simply flows through image and text from one page to the next.  Well-written with great characters.

I found the text a bit small for reading with a group of children (unless you prep well ahead of time).  The words flow easily as you read, whether aloud or silently. It would be so much fun to read this with a child in your lap.

The story lends itself well to reading comprehension questions.  What do you think might happen next?  What did Little Red Sleigh see on her journey?  Did black train tell her anything important?  Did yellow truck tell her to give up?  I love books that help me to ask good questions of children. 

This particular book I received a ARC copy of, it will come as a hardcover and is geared to children 4-8 years of age.   Erin Guendelsberger engages her readers well throughout the story. 

Should you Get it?

Little Red Sleigh is an adorable book.  You and your children will love the determination of this young sleigh.  She knows what she wants and won’t let anyone tell her no… including the weather!  You’ll have to read through to see if she meets her goal, or if it changes along the way. I would love to tell you, but I don’t do spoilers, you’ll want to sit back and just enjoy this heart-warming story.

Family Traditions

November 23, 2020 By Annette1 4 Comments

Family Traditions is the theme of this week’s crew challenge.  It’s easy to talk about the things we do that help make our family special to us. Traditions are a huge source of comfort as we navigate life don’t you think?  A sense of familiarity even when everything it topsy-turvy.  Is it any surprise that people are starting to decorate for Christmas early?   In a year that’s been hard… family Christmas traditions help keep us centered on what’s important to us. Today we’ll talk about some of the traditions that are important to us.

family traditions

Mom, Can Grandma Come?

This was a question from my 15-year-old when he came home from grandma’s last week.  I must have looked a bit startled/confused… for he went on the explain. “Grandma wants to come and do some tidying and stuff so we can put up your village.  Can she come?”   My response was that “it is much too early for that”. 

I’ve thought about it since then and told the lad this morning that he should “call grandma up and figure out a day, you two can put up the village”.  It gives us something to look forward to don’t you think?  A bit of normalcy in a rather crazy year. 

Christmas Village

Christmas Devotions

You might call these advent devotions, but they help us focus on the true meaning of Christmas.   This year we’re doing on written by John Piper. It’s called Joy to the World. It’s put out by DesiringGod.org. 

Christmas Music Traditions

Every year on my blog I do Christmas music on the Sundays leading to Christmas.  One year I think I did one almost every day.  It was fun!  Anyways, beyond posting Christmas music on the blog I have a whole shelf full of Christmas music, and we often put on a long-playing YouTube video with Christmas music with a fireplace as the backdrop. 

Family Traditions – Baking

Just before I started writing this post I told my fellows that I’m starting to want to make Christmas cookies.  You know what?   They didn’t complain about that idea at all!  🙂 

I’ve shared some of the cookies we’ve made over the years.  I’ll probably make many of the same, though I just got a huge bag of mini rolos so might try my hand at Christmas cookies with them. 

  • the New and Old of Christmas Baking. 
  • Christmas Baking – the boys. 
  • The Togetherness of Christmas Baking. 
  • Christmas Cookies.

Christmas Tree

I have to admit, I used to decorate the whole house with knick-knacks but I decided three years ago that as much as I like to, it’s just too much work.   I know I know… lazy of me isn’t it!?!?!   Part of that “too much work” was my tired hubby’s comments of “where is my _____” because I moved it to make room for my knick-knacks.   It’s more important to keep the peace than to rearrange the house AND end up with a frustrated fellow.  He works really hard and deserves less frustration when he’s home eh? 

BUT we do put up a tree.  We have tons of decorations, homemade, purchased or gifted.  Our tree changes every year.  Of course we have favourites (such as my joy snowmen) that go up every year, but the rest more or less rotate their way through. 

Before Christmas Tradition

One of our before Christmas Traditions is closing out our review year with the Homeschool Review Crew. I normally do a post with our favourites but I’ve decided to include them here.  It’s always good to have a break you know?  You can find the favourites of the crew in this post.

Give Thanks to the Lord

November 16, 2020 By Annette1 2 Comments

So I’ve been debating this topic from the crew “Give Thanks to the Lord” for a couple of weeks now.  Should I do a light airy piece on all the things that I am thankful for, things that are important but not on the forefront of my heart; OR should I write what’s on the forefront of my heart knowing there are those who won’t understand it but might possibly help others?  OR should I make it homeschooling focused since this blog really is about faith AND homeschooling?   I guess you’ll have to read on to see what I do eh?  🙂 

give thanks to the Lord

The other day I was reading a devotional that talked about how so often when we read or teach bible stories we look for the actions of people.  We often fail to look at what a bible story reveals about God.  God’s word is actually all about God.  Stories might lighten the reading, but at the end of the day… the bible is the story of God’s glory revealed. 

It’s good to keep that thought in mind as one considers how one would give thanks to the Lord for the events or things in life. 

Affiliate links will be used. 

The Things of Life

There are things in life that I am ever so thankful for.  Big things like friends, a church to attend, service opportunities. Medium things like a house to live in, work to do, food to eat. And then the copious little things.

  • My tea maker – I love drinking cold tea and having a pitcher dedicated to the making of it.  Marvellous!
  • Our keurig machine – hot chocolate and bouillon… totally does me a solid good. 
  • Gardening.  Love getting plants growing, and working with dirt, and everything involved with that. Making relishes and canning.  🙂 
  • My tablet.  Ever so helpful for trying out new recipes.  Much easier to read than my phone. 
  • Contigo water bottles.  They hold my tea nicely.  🙂 
  • My fellows working together.  Can’t ask for much better. 

Homeschooling

Thankfulness for the ability to homeschool.  I give thanks to the Lord for:

  • in a province with few rules about homeschooling
  • in a current crisis, we have a government actually helping parents in the form of grants who need to homeschool 
  • for a school board that allows my son to take courses, I can’t easily figure out how to teach
  • in a time and age where schooling is available in many different formats: video, text, audio.   Textbooks, PDF’s, USB, online.  
  • Support provided quickly and easily.  Tonight on a Facebook group for SchoolhouseTeachers.com I saw a mom struggling with algebra get direct help on answering a question. 
  • for a lad who has fully embraced independence in his schooling. 

Rabbits and Other Critters

I know, I know, rabbits are neither homeschool or faith, but they are very much a part of my life.  🙂   BUT I promise they do have a homeschooling connection!

From the bunnies:

  • bunny education classes
  • finances to provide homeschooling materials
  • education in running a small business
  • joy in having furry beasts to care for
  • seeing God at work in ways unexpected
  • friends to make
  • skills to develop

The other critters

  • cats!  oh my.. the cats are both a source of vexation and laughter.   Lizzy too smart for her own good, Milo getting old and losing strength of body and mind. 
  • Snake: Fireheart has taught us so much about her needs, her abilities, and just how interesting it is to have a pet snake. 
  • Budgies: the sadness of loss when they die, the joy when you convince a scaredy-cat bird to land on a finger, the remembering to provide care, the laughter when she squawks to unique noises, it’s good
  • Makes me remember how in the bible it says that if people won’t praise God, the world around us will do so. 

Parenting

If anything has caused me the hardest time, it’s parenting.  My lad was relatively easy as a child growing up.  He’s proving to be a more difficult teen making decisions that hurt my heart deeply. But in that struggle, there are things in which to give thanks to the Lord for;

  • he is currently still at home, directly under the care of people who love him and will continue to pray for him, and talk with him. 
  • my prayer life has more than tripled.
  • my understanding of the deep hurt that parents can feel over the actions of their children has quadrupled. 
  • how alone one can feel, and how God says “hey, I’m here” into the quietness of one’s heart.
  • even in hurt, one can express gratitude, because God’s hand can still be seen.
  • friends are sometimes unexpected blessings, sending links that help a heart.

How about you?  What is in your life that you can give thanks to God for?   Do they help you see him more clearly?

Harvest Time Decor

November 9, 2020 By Annette1 2 Comments

The Home School Review crew has issued the challenge for today… harvest time decor!   I saw that and thought GAH I haven’t a clue.  I’m really not a decorator for things like that.  I do Christmas cause it’s easy, but any other seasonal/holiday thing, it’s just really not my thing.   

I talking with my tenant that this week’s challenge and her prompt response was “oh, that’s easy!   Can I write it for you?”  Never one to turn down a freely offered gift I said “sure!”   So here goes her post: 

Harvest Time Decor

There is a ton of decorations for Harvest time.

Let’s start with nature and the beauty of the leaves turning colour. I’ve seen a mountainside with a green background and coloured trees throughout with the greenish-blue of the Atlantic Ocean, and the blue of the sky…magnificent!

Harvest Time Decor

We try to bring that beauty inside when harvest time comes around. Yes, in spring and summer we may bring in the odd bouquet of flowers, but it’s not like harvest decorating. We bring in gourds, pumpkins, corn and corn stalks, hay bales, and let’s not forget the cornucopia, also known as the Horn of plenty.

A cornucopia is an assortment of fruit. It’s a familiar part of harvest time decor. When referring to the horn of plenty, it is a basket, shaped like a horn, and fill with the freshness of harvest.  You’ll find pumpkins, fruit, dates, grapes, apples, gourds, squash and more.  The abundance of harvest for all to see.

That is what I would like to focus on. What kind of fruit is in your cornucopia?

Pruning for More Fruit

In John 15, Jesus talks about branches that bear no fruit are taken away, branches that bear good fruit, are pruned, so they can yield more fruit the next harvest.

John 15:1-2  “I am the true vine, and my Father is the vinedresser. 2 Every branch in me that does not bear fruit he takes away, and every branch that does bear fruit he prunes, that it may bear more fruit. 

The first idea I have here is that we often equate pruning with something bad. Granted the bad fruit needs to be taken care of, but in this instance, Jesus doesn’t talk about bad fruit, but good fruit.

When gardening, there are some plants that must have the fruit harvested in order to produce more fruit. If the fruit is left and not harvested, the next yield will be stunted, or the fruit will go bad. So, when a pruning or plucking happens in your life, deal with it willingly, not willfully. (That right there will show you the condition of your fruit).

Consider then the branches

Next, Jesus talks about the relationship between the branches and the tree.

John 15:4-8 4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me. 5 I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing. 6 If anyone does not abide in me he is thrown away like a branch and withers; and the branches are gathered, thrown into the fire, and burned. 7 If you abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you. 8 By this my Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit and so prove to be my disciples.

This is an allegory of our individual relationship with God. I know no one is perfect. We all have shortcomings. It’s how we deal with those shortcomings, though. If we are properly grafted into the root of God and His Word, then we are always dealing in humility and repentance. (Now in this let us not forget the apostle Paul’s words in Romans 6. We don’t purposely sin to make grace abound). Our relationship with God is of the utmost importance. It is up to us to keep it healthy, not someone else. To abide in Him, and He in you is a lifestyle of perpetual awareness of what God has for you.

Taking Stock

Now I am going into a possibly sore area.

What condition is your fruit? Is it fresh and useable, or does it resemble plastic fruit? Fake it ‘til you make it type thing?

I remember as a child I got plastic fruit confused with real. My mother informed me of the truth, and I learned a lesson. Not all fruit is real. We often talk about bad fruit, but what about fake fruit?

I know life is hard at times and we need a break. That is okay. It is better to take a break than to fake being okay and producing fake fruit.

The bottom line is, we are so wanting a harvest and for God to use us, we move ahead without letting our fruit mature. We think we have developed well, but our fruit is artificially ripened fruit. We have the power, but not the authority. Authority we would properly obtain with properly ripened fruit.

So, this harvest time, as you look around at all the harvest time decor, take time to consider what kind of fruit is in your cornucopia.

Is it going to be helpful, well developed and nourishing for you and others around you, or will it be a little off and sour?

When the fruit of the spirit is healthy and well developed, we can then proceed to call in the harvest. Are you ready?
