Long, long ago, when dinosaurs roamed the earth, I was an undergraduate education major. During my sophomore year I did a practicum in a 3rd-6th grade classroom taught by a talented and extremely knowledgeable master teacher. I did my best to soak up his methods and approaches, hoping that someday I would be able to…
Best Laid Plans and Mini-Bundt Cakes
Ok, so I didn’t spend my summer updating this blog with all of the recipes from last school year’s Monday Boxes. I meant to. It sounded like a good idea. I didn’t stop baking and cooking, I just wasn’t focusing on mailable treats. My Monday Box recipient spent much of the summer at home. He…

A first post should be special. It has to grab the reader’s attention and entice them to read further. Somehow the first post has to intrigue the viewer enough that they will return. A delicious recipe couldn’t hurt either. I’ve been worrying about how to do this. I am very good at worrying. But as usual, worrying didn’t get me…
