Try a New Recipe Tuesday

My family loves muffins. I am not a big fan of muffins, but I do enjoy one once in a while. My favorites are banana muffins. Today I gave a try to a new banana muffin recipe I found on Pinterest and it was a big hit here, so I thought I would share the recipe. I believe it originates from All Recipes.

Banana Muffins

Ingredients

1 1/2 cup of flour
1 Teaspoon baking soda
1 Teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 large bananas
3/4 cup sugar
1 egg
1/3 cup butter melted

Preparation:

1. Mix flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt together.
2. In a large bowl mix together mashed bananas, sugar, egg and butter.
3. Add flour mixture to banana mixture, folding and mixing until incorporated.
4. Pour in muffin pan and bake for 12-15 min @ 350 for regular size muffins.

Optional:

These go very well with chocolate chips or dried cranberries added to the batter, which is what I did.

Enjoy!

Here is a picture of the lonely one left when I remembered to take a picture.

Writing & Rhetoric - A Writing Curriculum Review and a Giveaway

Curriculum choosing and buying can be a very daunting task. So many subjects to cover, so many curriculum to browse though, and so many companies to consider. Today I would like to share with you a product and a company that I have come to hold in high regards. When it comes to teaching writing to the boys I was not sure which way to go, as I would not exactly consider myself a great writer. Then came along Writing and Rhetoric from Classical Academic Press. I heard about it when the second book in a series of twelve just released, and I was immediately intrigued. You see I homeschool classically, and writing is an integral part of it. Classical Academic Press puts out products geared towards classical homeschooling, so there you had the first common ground. I was searching for something that would teach them what writing was, and guide them through the process incrementally, without bombarding them with pages and pages of writing right from the start. I found what...
