Hip Homeschool Moms. A Vibrant Community for Homeschooling Families.
Leftovers again. Yes, I serve leftovers pretty often. Actually, I only serve leftovers to my family—most often to my husband. I wouldn’t want to give leftovers to my church family now would I? And of course I would never serve leftovers to the other moms in my homeschool group. And what would my neighbors think…
Are you naturally neat? Is your living room company-ready any time the doorbell rings? Do you sleep more soundly when all your dishes are washed before bed? I’ve known people who could easily say yes to each of these questions. I’ve been in their houses. I am not one of them. After I got married…

This recipe is one of our family favorites. It is great timing for this one with the cooler weather approaching. It is a great alternative to chilli. Seriously, this is the easiest recipe to dump in the crockpot in the morning and let it cook on low all day. Great for a day that you…
This is a new favorite recipe around my house. I haven’t cooked much with curry in the past. My family tends to be a creature of habit. We find some foods we like and we eat them over and over… I find that is just easier after my full day of homeschooling. We will…
I have a crush on ground pork. There. I said it. In my opinion it is one of the most underrated of the ground meats. It absorbs the flavor of everything cooked with it, and it goes well with anything. It doesn’t hurt that it runs about $1.00 less per pound than ground beef. If…
