happy fall ya'll

Cool pancake molds, huh? They fry up pretty good!

This is our fall/Thanksgiving tablecloth..The plates don't really match, but I like the colors.

Since we moved her to Idaho, we decided to celebrate fall with a fall dinner...My mom sent me these awesome leaf pancake molds..Then I got this yummy recipe from a coworker. There are alot of versions of this recipe on the internet..But I think this one is totally yummers!

Spicy Apple Pancakes with Cider Sauce
2 cups Bisquick
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1 egg
1 1/3 cup milk
3/4 cup grated apple (about 2-3 apples) I used granny smith.
Beat it all together with beater till smooth (or smoothlike). Pour batter by 1/4 cup on hot griddle, greased if necessary. (I use Pam). Bake until bubbles appear. turn bake till golden brown. Serve with warm cider sauce, top with sour cream (we didnt do that not a sour cream fan). Makes 18 -4" pancakes. (not really more like 9-10 good size pancakes)
Cider Sauce
1 cup sugar
2 T cornstarch
1/4 tsp cinnamon and nutmeg (or pumpkin pie spice)
2 cups apple cider
2 T lemon juice
1/4 cup butter
In saucepan, mix it all except butter. Cook, stirring constantly, untill mixture thickens and boils. Boil and stir 1 minute. Remove from heat, stir in butter (makes 2 1/2 cups) .
Serve with sausage, milk, or whatever...Eat it up.

Then grades had to be put in and it was down over the Christmas break so I had a huge pile to get in. Parent teacher conferences were on Thursday. I didn't meet with alot. I met with most of my students'  parents. The one that I wanted to talk to of course didn't show. My own children are doing great in class. Brayden is started to read more and more each day.

Sometimes I wish that they would treat Kindergarten with more rigor toward the middle of the year to get them ready for first. Just my opinion. My house is feeling very neglected and wil...

Day 5 -- Vacation

On Wednesday, our last day in the land of the heat. We went to the Mesa Southwest Museum. I guess it is call the Museum of Natural History. In all my years living in the valley and in Eagar, we never went to this museum. It rocked! I wished that I could take my students there. This room was all black with flourescent lighting. The kids could write on those white board with light wands. Whatever the kids wrote would be gone in about 20-30 seconds. It was pretty cool. I loved the interactive the stuff. I have been wanting to do this for years with my classroom. I have wanted them to create their plays. Then act them out in front of a green screen and then use a computer program to put their scenery in. I think I am going to find a grant and write one! Sister Lou loved being on T.V. We would couldn't drag this little starlet off it. Isn't this cute? They got behind the TV and now they are projected into an old western. They had a part of the old territorial prison in th...
