In The Kitchen: Meatloaf And Cauliflower

As we finish up our week on our meal plan we have another new (to us) menu item:

Turkey Quinoa Meatloaf and Rockin Good Smashed Cauliflower with Garlic

The turkey meatloaf was better then what we have had in the past with turkey meatloaf.

The smashed cauliflower was defiantly different! Not bad, just different. I thought it was great that they didn’t taste like cauliflower because I’m not a fan of cauliflower. So it’s a great what to eat it! Also,  I was in charge of the carrots (not in picture) and completely forgot about them, so that’s why there is a “gap” on my plate.

First Grade: Day 116

Today is Fantastic Friday!

It was a good week for everyone, better then the past 2 week’s for Isabel. Teacher Mrs. B said she was a lot better this week and we hope that it continues to be better for her as the year continues…

Today was mid-term and Isabel is doing very well academically, just needs to work on her interaction with others. So we are working on that!

This week the class has been talking about “Simple Machines“. All week she was asking to take a crowbar to school! Daddy couldn’t find his, so that didn’t happen, maybe next time.

Today they finished up the lesson…
