What are the essentials? What are the extras that would be nice to have?

Wow! Things have really changed since my dc were babies! This thread mentions a lot of items I've never heard of! Halo sleep sacks NoseFrida Beco carrier Aiden and Anais Moby Wrap podegai baby bjorn Boppy Bumbo Ergo Baby k'Tan wraps Babylegs :001_huh:

Oh, it's cooked... but until I thawed it, I didn't realize that. The package just says "Corned Beef" and it was frozen solid. I didn't know I was dealing with cooked and sliced corned beef. I have 3 or 4 more packages of this stuff, and while I love reuben sandwiches, not everyone in my family does. So I want to know if it will be good if I recook it with the vegetables.

Lapbooking is our biggest reason for using a lot of glue sticks. Yes, even in high school. :)

A few days ago, I asked how to cook corned beef, and got some great responses. Well, I thawed the corned beef in the refrigerator, and took it out this morning to put it into the crock pot. Well, it turns out that it's not a solid hunk of corned beef, but it's been presliced, like for reuben sandwiches. We can NOT eat 5 lbs. of corned beef in reubens--EK doesn't even like reubens--so can I just pretend it's a whole corned beef roast (I guess that's what you'd call it) and cook it with the cabbage and carrots and potatoes anyway??? Thanks!

:iagree:

:ohmy: Bill!!! Please say you didn't mean it! :O

:iagree:

Yes, this. :iagree: :iagree: I love the aha moments... "so that's why the lamppost was there!"... that you only get when you read the books in publication order.

I was given several packages of frozen corned beef, about 4-5 lbs. each. There are no cooking instructions on the package, and I've never cooked corned beef before. HELP!

:iagree: :iagree: :iagree: I've been homeschooling for years and years, and I still look forward to the new catalogs from RR & SL & others. I especially love the RR catalog because it's so HUGE!

Oh, yes, I remember those! I tell my kids how lucky they are to be able to text their friends every day. Dh & I had to settle for a phone call or two per week when we were long-distance dating. And we tried to wait until after 11 PM or only talk on weekends when the rates were lower. :glare:

:iagree: :grouphug:

Tentatively August 13th

Thank you all!

Thank you all!

I'd prefer that the protagonist be a Southerner--an average Southerner, rather than plantation aristocracy. Even better if the story takes place in Georgia. Pretty please? :D

Anyone???

Me too. :)

If so, and if you've used it, please tell me how you liked it. Thanks!

Thanks! I'm going to try this one!

Does Discovery Streaming have a high school Spanish program? Or a Latin program? I will be teaching a new student in the fall, a 16yog. She took Spanish 1 at PS last year, but didn't pass. (There were problems at home--parents going through a divorce--and she had a lot of difficulty in school as a result.) I will have 2 other students, neither of whom will be taking Spanish or Latin, so whatever we do, it MUST be something she can do independently. Suggestions?
