It was a total hit! This is going on the permanent Thanksgiving pie menu. I would love to try it with labnah next year.

Sour cream apple pie?! Mind blown. I hope the supermarket is open because I'm going to need some sour cream urgently.

I am so sorry. Holding your family in my thoughts.

I second Athleta for bra sized tops. They are pricey but well made.

Can we just agree that this is a multifaceted problem. We have a mental health problem and a gun problem in this country. Until we address both problems we will continue to have these tragedies every twelve heartbreaking days.

I LOVE this! Thank you.

This is very controlling and not okay.

My son soaked the bed every night until he was nine. We finally bought a bed wetting alarm, and it took only a few weeks for him to completely stop wetting the bed. Here is a link to the alarm we used. There are other brands that are less expensive and probably just as good. We needed wireless because my son sleeps without a shirt. Best of luck!

Many hugs.

Thank you RootAnn for the reminder and encouragement to do this. Even though my dd wouldn't normally gravitate towards either of the first week's books she thoroughly enjoyed both of them. It's so great when we step out of our comfort zones and discover that we like what's out there. She downloaded the second books today.

Funny you should say this. I have all of our manipulatives in a bag by the front door, ready to take to a friend with small kids, and I keep forgetting to bring them when we go to town.

Is she able to do the mental math, lesson, lesson practice, and the mixed practice in this amount of time? This sounds fast to me. My dd is in 8/7 and we are now splitting the lessons between two days because the lessons were just taking way too long.

I recommend Touch Type Read and Spell. It is a typing program for dyslexics. So while you are typing you are learning spelling patterns. For my dyslexic dd it is the only thing that has worked to improve her spelling, and the bonus is that she can type well too.

I am voting for the new closed club but grateful for whatever method we decide. Would there be any point to keeping this club open (though not in use) in the off chance that our old threads return? Thank you, Amira.

My kids are really into whittling right now. My dd just made me a spoon and a fork. I don't have a crafting bone in my body and wonder where these children came from.
