The Pilgrims and farm market fun

On Tuesday's we get together with another local homeschool family for our boy's to 
study American History. Today's topic was the Pilgrims. After their
book studies they made corn bread pancakes as they would have long ago...I had all the girls with me and we had some dress up fun dancing and playing!



Thought this cactus plant was amazing!


They have so many beautiful antiques in their home, I loved this old dictionary on it's own
stand...













This our friend's garden. It's amazing and we were able to bring some
some peas and green beans for dinner tonight!




over at the Farmer's Market later...we bought our fresh
veggies



This is our take home for the day...$ 10 worth of fresh honey, veggies and
oh so good fresh from the farm chocolate milk!




Our house smells amazing right now with all the fresh basil and produce!

National Chocolate Chip Day

May 15, 2012 is National Chocolate Chip Day Today is National Chocolate Chip Day! Chocolate chips are an essential ingredient in dozens of delicious baked goods—chocolate chip cookies, chocolate chip pancakes, chocolate chip muffins, chocolate chip brownies, chocolate chip bagels, and many more. You can even find chili recipes that call for these sweet morsels! In the 1930s, Ruth Graves Wakefield created the original chocolate chip cookie at her Toll House Inn in Whitman, Massachusetts. Ruth intended to bake chocolate cookies for her guests, but she ran out of baker’s chocolate. She substituted with chopped up semi-sweet chocolate morsels and discovered that the pieces did not melt into the dough as she expected. Her cookies were an instant hit. Today, 25% of all the cookies baked in the United States are chocolate chip! To celebrate National Chocolate Chip Day, pick up a bag of chocolate chips at the supermarket and bake something yummy to share with friends and cowor
