Friday flâner

A few things I enjoyed while gallivanting around the internet this week…

Victorian-era Daguerrotypes of Women Breastfeeding – how fascinating that these were not considered immodest! Today we see more of a woman’s body than we want to on the cover of a magazine while waiting in line at the grocery store checkout, yet breastfeeding in public is considered gross. Pfffhht. 

How to Encourage Your Kids to be Tidy – from a mom of 8, some great tips here, especially on decorating kid rooms.

Would you believe I have never, ever done freezer cooking? After seeing this post with 9 gluten-free slow cooker meals from ALDI, I printed the shopping list out and am heading to ALDI tomorrow to make this happen. Monday it’s ON. I plan on recruiting big kids to help.

Oldies but goodies from this here blog:

2009: For fellow bloggers who want to quit: encouragement not to. (I started my first blog 14 years ago. That makes me ancient!)

2010: Homeschooling when your child doesn’t like to read

2012: For my preggy readers, do you know about the Bean Cure for pregnancy nausea?

And finally, something I had to mention. Do you need to do some spring clothes shopping?

Today my 14 year old daughter declared, “Mom, I just gave a bunch of outgrown clothes to Sadie. I need some new clothes.”

It just so happened that Schoola had just sent me a fantastic coupon code. When you put $60 of stuff in your cart and use code ROAR, they take 60% off your purchase! She got over $60 worth of gently used clothing for just over $30.

And the best part of all? I didn’t have to leave the house!
