Creative Home school Record Keeping

This year I am keeping a record of all of our activities digitally.  I am keeping a monthly project going with picaboo to keep all of our adventures organized and kept in one place.  I plan to scan certain written work that is appropriate and drawn narrations to add to the piece.  It will be a fun family keepsake. 

The children have one from the former preschool and they cherish it.  I wish to keep the tradition going without all the actual cutting and pasting.  It is a whole new digital world and I intend to use it like a tool.

 Grace and Peace to all,

Best Guacamole in the World!

During my third pregnancy I lived on homemade salsa and guacamole.  It is still one of my favorite treats.  We had a community party a few weeks ago and a woman brought this.  The whole party was a buzz about it.  I must admit, I make my own and am pretty picky but this one topped it for sure.  Enjoy!

1 Haas avocado

3 T chopped onion

1 tsp chopped jalapeno chilies

1.5 tsp of chopped cilantro

2T chopped tomato (seeds and juice discarded)

In a bowl, or  a molcajete mash the following ingredients with the back of a spoon until it forms a paste. 1T onion, 1/2 tsp chilies, 1/2 tsp cilantro, 1/2 tsp salt. 

Add the avocado to the paste and then gentle fold in the other ingredients.

Yummy!
