Homeschooling

This will be my first year to homeschool so organization will be key! After reading lots of reviews and previewing several planners, I went with The Well Planned Day! I have to say I am loving this so far. It really encompasses a homeschool moms whole day/week/month. It has grocery list tear outs, meal planning sections, budgetting, and all the things needed for planning your school day!

I make these tastey treats for my family constantly. We keep them in the freezer so they last longer, but we actualy go through them fast enough the refrigerator would probably be fine. They are loaded with protein and healthy stuff, but taste like a no bake cookie. There are lots of variations, but my go to recipe is as follows:

2 Cups rolled oats
1 cup Peanut Butter (I use oganic pb that is only peanuts in the ingredient list)
2/3 cup raw honey
1/2 Cup high Cacoa chocolate chips
1/4 Cup walnuts
1/8 cup ground flax seeds
2 Tblsp chia seeds

Mix it all together in a large bowl and let in chill in the fridge for about 30 minutes. Then roll into balls. Thats all there is to it. You can store them in the freezer or the refrigerator. :)
Other addins: coconut, almonds butter instead of PB, change up nuts, could use raisins or other dried fruit as well. Play around with it and find what you like best.

Who wouldn't want a cheaper phone bill?

Okay all, I am excited to tell you about a new company that is launching in September that is going to not only save me money, but give me the oportunity to make a little extra as well.  The company is called Solavei.  They are offering unlimited talk, text, and data on a nation wide 4G network with no contract!  I love that.  Another really neat part is that they are operating on a social commerce network.  This means that they will not spend the billions of dollars in advertising like AT&T did last year.  They will instead be paying their customers for sharing the service with others!  I am attaching the links to a company overview webinar and a compensation webinar that you can watch and learn more.  If you are interested let me know.  I would love to tell you how you, too can be part of the prelaunch of this awesome company!
