Fresh spring air has some of the strongest healing properties of all. :) Glad you were able to get out and about.
A Day Off to Rest.
I am taking the day off, my friends. We are hunkering in as a family with four sore throats, two runny noses, one fever and plenty of malaise. Have a great (sunny) day. We'll be here - making tinctures and teas, reading books, playing games and resting up. Back in action again tomorrow! Lo...
Hope you're all feeling better....feeling terrible in lovely weather just adds insult to injury.

Beautifully done. My little family has been there every day possible. THIS is something to be passionate about. It has brought people together and the impact is far larger than most realize. THE WORLD IS WATCHING WISCONSIN. Let that sink in for a moment. History is being made here. HERE, in Madison. Not in the Middle East, not in D.C. Here, in the land of Super Bowl Champions and cheeseheads. Here, in the city built between two lakes. And it is beautiful.

Passion, Peace, and Power: Fifteen Days in Wisconsin.
Let me begin with a simple sentiment: This is not a political blog. At all. Indeed, it is usually a sparkly, woolly, squeaky clean, happy no-politics zone. It is a place to come to discuss homeschooling, cooking, sewing, knitting, kids, and all things magical. But not the democrats or the ...
Fantastic. We were there Saturday evening as well -- it is so incredible to see.

If you come back, let me know! We're headed back down in about an hour.
Democracy Lessons.
I did mention that I'm from Wisconsin, didn't I? Wisconsin made a bit of news this week, in case you hadn't noticed. Our new Governor has introduced a budget repair bill that is being met with enthusiasm, though not the kind he was planning on. The democratic senators have left the state...
We get something like these at our local co-op...only they look like they've been pushed through an extruder/pasta maker and coated in oat flour so they don't stick. Jack loves them! I am excited that I can make them at home now...
Homemade Date Balls.
Call them Date Balls. Peanut Butter Balls. I-don't-want-to-pay-for-a-lara-bar-Balls. Toddler-Meltdown-Prevention-Insurance. Whatever you nickname them, this simple combination of dried fruit and nuts is protein packed, sweet, portable, and yummy. And so easy to make, you'll never buy a packa...
