Totally Tasty Tuesdays

August 20, 2013 by mandyrecipebox

 Totally Tasty Tuesdays


My kids went back to school this week. Including my little Emma who went to Kindergarten. It’s a big deal for me. Huge. Because since it’s so rural where we live, the Kindergartners go all day. Our school district goes Mon-Thurs and have Fridays off, which is nice. So Hannah gets on the bus at 7 am and doesn’t get home until 4:15 and then Preston and Emma get on at 7:30 and get home at 4. Long days for our kids. 
Emma was so ready to go to school. She didn’t even get nervous as I left. Just a “See ya Mom!” Now it’s just Isaac and me at home all day. It will take some getting used to. I keep expecting Emma to come ask for some chocolate milk. And yes, I cried on the way home after taking Emma and Preston to school. I totally did.
Here is last week’s most viewed recipe…

    Can&#39;t believe it&#39;s already time to start back to school again! My hubby is the only one in school at our house, and I&#39;m so glad my little girl is much too young for school. I can only imagine how sad it must feel sending them away all day 🙁 <br />Hopefully all this tasty food will cheer you up! Thanks for the party!

    Oh, Mandy my heart goes out to you. I remember when my youngest went off to school. It seemed so weird not have her tagging along on my daily routine. But, it is wonderful she is so excited for school… take care and thank you for the party.

Totally Tasty Tuesdays

Holy Busy Summer, Batman!
We’ve started swimming lessons, Emma had her 4th birthday, Father’s Day, gardening, blogging, etc.
I am half tempted to postpone TTT until school starts back up, but it’s so fun seeing what everyone links up that I don’t think I could do it. We’ll see.
I have to show you Emma’s pics that I took. She is too cute, if I say so myself.

Yeah, we sorta love her.
On to the party!
