Apple Cake & Feeding Squirrels

 (Hearty soups and apple cake , cake recipe here)
 
Just a few of the happenings around here as of late ~
after a long Christmas break, we're trying to get back into the groove of things.
We started back with our homeschooling studies this week.
We're looking forward to more projects and trips than the first part of our year.
(Apple peels for the squirrels)

One of the projects this week was researching
our backyard critters and animal friends.
Here are a few of the many links ~

By the way, I meant to mention this awhile ago, but forgot and just now remembered!  I know it's late in coming, but I wanted to thank whoever nominated us for the 2012 Homeschooling Awards!!  I only knew about it because I got traffic from the link.
I have to say I was quite surprised, especially since I hadn't really been posting anything about our homeschooling.  Of course I didn't win (no surprise there lol)
but I was tickled with the nominations, I hope you see this whoever you are ~
Thank you SO very, very much for thinking of us!!!
Monday morning blues ~ as in the skies above!

 So happy to see the first signs of Spring!!


Happy weekending!!

Yum! That apple cake looks SO yummy. I made sweet potato brownies last night. Good, but not nearly as yummy as that cake looks lol!
SO SO jealous of your new embroidery machine. Perhaps I will be putting one on my birthday list (not until JUNE!)
Was so fun "chatting" with you last week! Put a smile on my face when I was feeling so yuck! Enjoy the remainder of the weekend my friend :)

Kind of jealous that you have signs of spring already when it is a balmy 20 degrees here today! Brrr!
