Tackle It Tuesday

Posted in Family, Homemaking, and Homeschooling

Today’s tackle is a different sort of tackle for us. The tackle all stems from our studies today and some reading that Munchkin has been doing… Our first tackle was running to the grocery store to get the ingredients that she needed to make her new recipes from the Incredible Edible Gluten Free Food for Kids book that she’s reading.

Munchkin and I headed out to the Peach Orchard to go peach picking today. Neither one of us has been peach picking before, so we had a great time. We’ve really enjoyed our special time together this week. Wednesday we enjoy picking lots and lots of blueberries and blackberries. Thursday, we had a fun Wild Food Walk and Talk field trip. We had a blast learning about edible plants in the wild. I don’t feel comfortable just picking plants and eating them yet, but it definitely peaked our interest. I’ll be looking for a good guide in the near future.…
