Religiously keeping up multiple blogs is almost impossible, especially during the holiday season. All of the planning, trying to keep everyone happy, especially family can be stressful. This year, we are doing school a little differently during the holidays, I am "trying" to be a little more relaxed. We have been using unit studies, we are doing an Amanda Bennett study on Chocolate, I found a Christmas one, which is the first pin below, we are also going to use. I really want my kids to know the true meaning of Christmas, the birth of Jesus. The first set of pins, is all about homeschooling, but they all have something to do with Christmas. Some will be fun, you know Santa, elves and reindeer, others will have to do with what Christmas is really about. I hope you find some of them useful.

This next set of pins is all about the yummies! Sweets! Macarons are my favorite, the first time I had these little beauties, we were in San Juan, Puerto Rico. Last year, I decided to make these and they are not as complicated as they are made out to be. Take a chance, I am so glad I did! The Red Velvet are another new favorite of ours. This time of the year can be fun if you allow yourself room for error and exploration. Let the kids help, tweak the recipes...turn baking into science!
I would put Spritz on here, but I don't have a cookie press. Something, I am definitely going to invest in this year. Plus, I don't have to make them, we are going to my parents for Christmas, and my mom makes the best Spritz cookies! I am going to have to call her, see if she can hold off until we get there, so the kids can help press them out. I haven't tried all the recipes above, I think the next one on my list after the snickerdoodles I promised the kids, is going to be the peppermint cheesecake bites. Who doesn't like cream cheese.
