A Snowy Sunday

Bonjour everyone!

So, I'm sitting on our couch doing homework....and am loving what I'm doing! I guess that's a good sign! One of my assignments for my Business Education course is to bring a list of online teaching resources that we have research. I find myself unusually interested in classroom templates, classroom lists, and new teacher blogs. AAAHHHH!!! I'm just so excited to be a teacher. I find out at the end of April where my student teaching placement will be and I can't wait.

On a different note, on Friday, Scott discovered CSA's (Community Supported Agriculture). He was really interested and explained the concept to me a bit. On Saturday, we went to a local/organic food expo in Shawnee and signed up for a CSA! Every Thursday for 22 weeks, we'll go to a pick up point and get a box of the farm's freshest stuff! The weekly cost is very similar to the cost of produce at HyVee, but is local and all organic. Additionally, the farm we're part of also makes body products like soaps and creams, so we get a new body product every week! The owner said if tomatoes are ripe, we'll get tomato basil soap, etc. How freakin' cute!

We're both hoping that this will "force" us to try different fruits and veggies that we might not normally try (which for me....would be every vegetable). Oh, and our pick up point is about 8 minutes from our house - how perfect!

Love you all....
