My Baby's Favorite Breakfast

Justin ate half a pan of this last Sunday! I can't believe he could eat so much--his belly sure was round afterward!

Baby Breakfast

1/2 cup Heart-Healthy Bisquick Mix
1 cup milk
2 eggs.

Mix together, then pour into greased 8x11 pan. Sprinkle with about 1 cup grated cheese. Bake in 400 degree oven until golden, about 20-25 minutes.

This bakes into a firm souffle, and can be cut into small bite-sized pieces. My little guy loves it cold, too.

I use the Heart-Healthy Bisquick because it doesn't contain trans-fats.

Okay, now I'm getting the hang of this, I didn't realize that the posts are published last to first (well, of course!), so read "I'm Blogging" before "This is Me."

Thank you,

This is Me

Okay, so now that you've been adequately warned, I guess I can tell you more about me.

Peach is my nickname--almost nobody on earth calls me by that anymore--it was my dad's favorite name for me, and now that he's gone, I kind of miss hearing it.

I am a Christian.

I am married almost 20 years to the most wonderful and handsome of men. He's a strong Christian believer and I'm very proud of all that he is to me and our children. We have 8 delightful kids, ranging in age from 1 year to 17 years. I believe that a wife is to be a "helpmate" to her husband, and my role is love, honor, and respect my husband--in other words, "submit" to his leadership. I believe in disciplining my children. Discipline enables the parent to bring the child's heart and will into alignment with the parent. Once a parent has a child's heart, it's possible to teach them about the Lord and life. I know that these beliefs might sound strange and archaic to some, but I find that they lead to peace and happiness in our home.

I am happy with my life! There are so many things I enjoy doing, but seem to have little time to do them these days. Maybe that helps the enjoyment be that much sweeter. I don't think I'll go into it all now--I'm sure you'll learn more on future posts.

God be with you,
Peach

I'm Blogging!

Okay, this is new territory for me. A blog! I've moved into the 21st century! My kids have blogs. They are quite impressive: lots of beautiful pictures, sound clips, and very intelligent sounding essays. I don't think I'll be able to compete. I think what I'll do here is just use this blog to record some of the random musings of a homeschooling mom of eight kids. Maybe my latest pet peeve will show up here, maybe a favorite recipe or two, and very occassionally something really worthwhile! I used to write a lot, now it seems my brain is somewhat numb and drained of the creative juices that used to flow through there. I'm hoping that maybe, just maybe, I can get past some of my mental inertia and get some thoughts on "paper" once again. So, I guess this is something of a warning: what follows may or may not benefit you, the reader. It's just the outworking of my personal mental therapy!
