Farmhouse Friday

Happy Friday friends. I am not really sure where March went but I am glad it's almost over!! The weather here in the Hudson Valley NY area has been cold, white and windy.  I am sooo ready to see SPRING!!!

Catching ya'll up a little since I have not posted a Farmhouse Friday in a while!


Loving our Chalkpastel.com FREE LIVE Videos on Facebook with Hodgepodge Mom and Nana. Check out their Facebook page



  • The snow has been ridiculous with the March storm. Thankfully we did not lose power but we did have days of shoveling out.  
  • Sammie is in her last few months of Black Belt classes and graduates with her black belt in June (Lord willing)  
  • Our neighbor's chickens are finally producing eggs for the community. Fresh eggs are THE BEST!




  • Our newest game obsession is Rummikub. My gal pals got me hooked so I had to buy it for our home. 
  • Sammie and Molly have had fun at the library programs each month. 
  • Dr. Seuss - Read Across American month - this year we did not nearly do as much as we had in the past. 





  • As we do each year, we went to our BFF's for St. Patrick's Day and had a blast. I met up with my old collage roommate (lives in the same town as our BFF's) and we were able to bring Lilly Dog with us also to our BFF's house. 
  • I got a chance to zoom thru the grocery store Wegmans and find some of my all time favorite cookies - Half Moons (they call them black and whites down here but do not taste nearly the same) sadly the cookies did not last long 8(.

A Seasonal Start in Spring Chalk Pastels


Homeschool - the children are working hard in their 3rd quarter. Zachary is halfway done with his Science Order & Reality thru A Beka.   The girls are having a great time studying what they learn on the Popular Mechanics For Kids videos. 


Other subjects moving right along.  We have planned a few Spring trips (one with kids and one girls trip only!)  Watch for those! 

In the know....

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
