Free Printable Download ♦♦ Teaching Your Children

Setting the table will be much easier when kids can be self learners. Your table can be organized and functioning with this little guide. My boys always ask "what do we need for dinner" as the set the table, as if today we were going to use BBQ tongs and toothpicks to eat our chicken and potatoes, as opposed to forks and spoons, and lap up our milk right off the table (Which I'm sure they wouldn't mind if given the chance! We are 100% boy at this house). 

This little reminder has helped them to set the table without tossing the fork about and set each place looking nice and neat. Nobody sits down missing a fork, and cups aren't forgotten about till the last minute...maybe I'm the only one with lazy table setters, but if not I hope this helps!
The back of this handy place mat is a great thing for your children to study at breakfast or anytime. It's important for our children to know why we eat all the different foods we do, and what benefit they are to our bodies. It's also important for us to remember as we are storing food, that a well rounded diet is essential to our health and our children's development. 
Enjoy talking about Health, foods, and preparedness with your children. Everything is made easier when our whole families are organized and on the same page. 
Start at the dinner table this week, and Set the table today, Learn for tomorrow and get prepared for an emergency...Get the whole family on board!

Printing:
Using my local printer it was .20 for black and white 11X17 prints.
Using Costco they did full color for .69 for 11x17 prints.
I laminated them inexpensively with Contact paper, and it took me and my man about 15 minutes to double side cover 5 in contact paper.




Select your color option and download the appropriate files and send them to your printer!

Enjoy!

Lovely Cinnamon Rolls

So I posted the Idea I got off of pinterest for the Love heart cinnamon rolls.
What I didn't share how ever was the delicious recipe to go with them.
Not all Cinnamon rolls are created equally, and I don't think they are a "no fail" type recipe. 
But a good recipe, correct amount of time to rise (2X) and a little attention to detail will make great rolls, that are worth the wait!
I'm sharing a Family Recipe with you. 
My mother used to be hired to make these by the dozens and she'd wake at 4AM to get them started. 
She gave me the recipe and I hope you can find some time to share the Love with your family!


Here they are :) Enjoy!

Pinterest Love


 Pinterest is awesome!
I love seeing all the ideas, I think of it as the best of the best. 
But mostly I like knowing where I got an idea, so If I need to go back to the website and figure it out I can! I'm sure the majority of you feel the same way. Here are some of my February must do's...and they were all done :) By Feb 1st :) I love that people started pinning Valentines Ideas in December so I could get my brain together...


I don't really have a place for 12 wreaths at my house so this one will double as a Valentine's wreath & a 4th of July wreath ( Take the bow out add a huge Blue bow with white stars).
I love taking an idea and making it much more cost effective and time effective. When I saw this I saw 2 variations, one woman had cut circles, and another stars out of felt. Both had used a styrofoam wreath, circle and Heart. I used a wicker circle from the dollar store, and about 3/4 yards of felt cut in to strips then into rectangles-- so much faster!! So I saves Loads of time! And probably at least 10+ dollars. Since my whole project was under $4-$5.


 These rolls were a huge crowd pleaser! 
"I can't believe I didn't think of this before"
Isn't that what you find yourself saying when you browse boards on pinterest? 
I made them on the day of a huge snow/Ice storm here in Seattle. everyone was basically trapped at home, no school, and most didn't go to work. So It was a fun surprise for neighbors to get hot "lovely" cinnamon rolls.
  


The "Love" letters I made a few years ago, but the heart garland I saw for the first time on pinterest and I loved it! It was so easy to make and I ended up making it for a couple places in the house and as gifts for a few friends.
 


With so many Ideas out there I'm glad that there is a place to share the ideas!
I started a pinterest board for  
Food storage ideas, Recipes and Emergency Preparedness.
I know it may not look as fun heart garland, but your family with thank you for it!
Follow me on pinterest and we can share these Ideas plus many more to bless your home :)
