		<title>Kindergarten MONTH in review (weeks #20-23)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I can hardly believe it&#8217;s been a almost month since I have written a homeschooling update post. Oh wait, yes I can!  During that month we watched the Olympics almost every night for two weeks.  And we did our taxes.  And it got warmer out and it felt like we were doing less school.  I [...]]]></description>

		<title>Menu Plan&#8230;Saturday?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Clearly it is well past Monday this week, very late for a menu post&#8230;   I could have just waited until tomorrow and started with next week, but I was afraid I might not get to it.  I did start writing my Menu Plan Monday post for this past week, but somehow the draft [...]]]></description>

		<title>Finding Deals on Dining Out</title>
		<description><![CDATA[If &#8220;being taken out to dinner&#8221; was a love language, that would definitely be mine.  While I am sure that everyone enjoys a dinner out every now and then, it is something that really makes me feel extra loved and special when Tony takes me out. I enjoy all types of eating out though, whether [...]]]></description>

		<title>Menu Plan Monday: March 1-8, 2010</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I guess it is &#8220;better late than never&#8221; this week.     At least it is still Monday for a little bit longer.  I am really getting in the groove of planning my menu based mostly on what I have already in the house, and putting any meals that need extra ingredients I don&#8217;t have [...]]]></description>

		<title>Menu Plan Monday: February 22-28, 2010</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s already time for the last Menu Plan Monday for February.   February always goes by quickly since it is the shortest month, but with Kai&#8217;s birthday and Valentines Day to celebrate and the Olympics to watch, it feels even shorter than usual.  Here&#8217;s what I have on the menu this week.  I am once again [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Faces of Homeschooling</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Today, these were the faces of homeschooling in the Gold House:

There should also be a picture of a Kindergartener with a frustrated look on her face, but I figured she might be even more unhappy with me if I took a picture of her in that state.
I usually try and stay positive in my homeschooling [...]]]></description>

		<title>Tot School Week in Review #18-19</title>
		<description><![CDATA[~Erik is 34 Months Old~

We&#8217;ve had some fun Tot School times the past couple of weeks! I think we&#8217;re finding a balance that works for us of Erik sometimes joining in to the best of his ability with what Madeline is doing, sometimes doing his own &#8220;tot school work&#8221; alongside Madeline and other times just [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We had a really fun week doing school this past week&#8230;here&#8217;s what we&#8217;ve been up to:
Bible: Last week I mentioned that I missed some of the other Bible materials we read last semester since we have been focusing on the take home lessons from 252 basics this semester.  Well, I &#8220;got my wish&#8221; this week.  [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s time for another Menu Plan Monday! Here&#8217;s what I have planned this week.  I&#8217;m again trying to work mostly off of what I have purchased on sale previous weeks, then adding a few things here and there to complete each meal (plus buying new sale items to use in future weeks).  I am hoping [...]]]></description>
