Summer Break!
[Summer Series Repost] Whether these two little words bring you feelings of panic or happiness, we probably all have to agree that we have to find a rhythm for our summer days so we don’t feel overwhelmed by feelings of having too much OR too little to do. Our family has had summers of both those dynamics. There were laid-back summers when we didn’t have any plans and just went with the flow of whatever someone called us up to do in the morning or afternoon or evening. There were full summers when we signed up for all the things and packed it in from morning to night. Haha…just kidding, we’re the Moys, we never pack it in from morning to night. :p I (Joyce) am pretty much done peopling after a half day anyhow. But we did have some summers that were fuller than not. And…after finding out how much camps costs (we’ll have to budget for them in the future or use college funds), we have come up with our own flexible schedule for the three months we are “off” for summer (because you know we never stop learning!).
You can survey your own friends to find out what activities they like to do and places they like to go and come up with your on summertime calendar ‘o fun!
Kid Food
So, an afternoon activity we came up with is cooking! We didn’t survey friends this time, but it would be fun to find out what everyone likes to cook or bake! We did a quick search online as well as on our old blog and find a few items we want to try out (again). Below is the list we came up with for our menu for this summer.
- Mini Lasagna Cups
- Tortilla Rollups
- Shells + White Cheddar
- Tomato Butter Spaghetti
- BLT Salad
- Peach (Blueberry) Crisp
- Nutella Brownies
- Pineapple Fried Rice
Here’s what our friends had to say about their favorite kid-friendly meals!
Coming soon!
We have seen some amazing recipes and would like to try them all, but since we don’t really have time to do that, please share your pics with us! And we’ll be updating with pics from our mini-cooking adventures!
What are you and your kiddos’ favorite recipes to make or foods to eat? Do you like sweets, savory treats, exotic flavors? Do tell!
