Wandering through life one season at a time
Dutch Being Me is hosting a 52 Weeks of Pinterest Challenge.
This going to be fun!!
The challenge is to actually do one of the projects/crafts/recipes that you have pinned, and then post about it.
And since I already missed the first week of the challenge, that’s only 51 projects to go Ha Ha!!
Who is going to join in the challenge with me?
Want a quick & easy treat to serve at your next party?
Mix candy corn and salted cocktail peanuts – it tastes like a Payday candy bar!!

I have a couple of really picky eaters. And I don’t mean won’t-eat-veggies-unless-they-are-hidden-in-sauce picky. Reallllly picky.
We do make them try new things, but it has been an uphill battle until recently. So how does watching TV play into all this? Let me backtrack.
We have a rule during the school year that only educational shows may be watched during school time.
We have an hour-long lunch break, so they can watch something after lunch. I deemed cooking/food shows as educational, and they are fun for the whole family!
Back to the picky eaters – I noticed that the more shows we watched, the more interested they were in trying new food combinations.
My picky eaters still have a limited menu, but they now both like salad and even hunt for the spinach in it. A year ago I would not have believed you if you had told me that they would willingly eat a salad!
Here are some of our favorite shows:
So if you are sitting there thinking, “There is no way my kid will ever eat a salad”, don’t give up hope . . . just turn on the TV! HaHa
{Be sure to screen any new shows before allowing your child to watch. There are some unsavory ones out there.}

I was going to create a chart for one of my kiddos with all of the key words to look for when trying to solve a word problem.
I decided to do a search first, and I am so glad that I did!
These four charts are better than anything I would have made. I love the examples – I think they will really make it click with my child.
