more quarantine cooking creations.  my best friend is persain and this is my favorite dish her family would make.  it is a rice dish with green beans and traditionally ground beef (but i used ground turkey instead).  no where near as good as hers, but still delicious and good for the soul.

homework!

today for our school work we are practicing writing the upper case alphabet and doing a furniture counting scavenger hunt!

oil and water

this is a super easy and fun one, and i guarantee you have everything you need.  on a small dish (i'm using a toaster oven pan) spread a very thing layer of oil, but enough to cover the surface.  then using food coloring or liquid water colors and pipettes make little dots on the oil and see if you can color mix or squeeze them back into the pipettes.

easter play dough kit!

new play dough kit time!  easter themed!  i am so glad i picked up this stuff about a month ago.  this kit consists of mini erasers, bunny & egg cookie cutters, rainbow easter bunnies, paper straws, mardi gras beads, mesh ribbon and acrylic gems and jewels.

technology

in these weird, uncertain and scary times it's important to stay connected.
