Earth Day - Wednesday, April 22nd

This was shared with me by Margaret Maxwell, an art teacher at BEHS.
Cool stuff!
Outing Club Rocks…
Celebrate Earth Day this week, Wednesday April 22nd.  Get out and rake, plant a garden. Sleep in a warm sleeping bag and comforter in a tent in your yard and make a fun camping staycation...make s'mores with peeps dipped in chocolate and graham crackers for fun and sing....and dance around the fire....have a fun time. At our faculty meeting when I mentioned that it was the 50th anniversary of Earth, Mr. Thomas jumped in and said, “ It is much older than that….". Well, I told him it is the recognition of Earth Day...we need to care for our planet.”  We chuckled. These are just suggestions......have a restful and fun week. Here is a site for the outdoor activities allowed in Maine during these difficult days...Have a good vacation week.

Easy-to-Make Soft Pretzels

So . . . I had made soup for dinner and I love soft pretzels, so I thought that I would whip up a batch to have with the soup.  Despite the fact that they're EXTREMELY unattractive, they're really good!  I didn't have bread flour, so I used all-purpose.  If you're bored and want to practice your baking skills, try making some!

Good Day to Bake Chocolate Chip Cookies!


Looking for something to do on this rainy, dreary day?  Whip up a batch of Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies (if you have the stuff in your pantry).  This recipe is amazing - I taste-tested FOUR this morning. . . . Good thing that ALL I ever wear lately is BLACK LEGGINGS. . . (the new "normal").  Have a great day!!
