Check This Out

What have you done for me lately? That's what Janet Jackson asked back in the late 80's, early 90's with her #1 pop song. But a better question would be: What have you done for your marriage lately? Check out this website for ideas to strengthen your marriage.

Dark Chocolate....Lower Blood Pressure....need I say more. I just wish it said a lot instead of a little. Or hourly instead of daily. Anyway, I'll be stocking up.

Homeschool News

HomeSchoolBuzz is a great website to check out if you're wanting to find homeschool news. Greg is always posting the latest and also allows for comments. He tags his items, too, so if you want to find news from only your state it is quite easy to do. They also have a BlogWatch which I have just been made part of. This is a list of homeschooling blogs that might be of interest to other homeschoolers. It also lists the titles of these blogs latest entries. It makes it easy to read on a certain topic or to find ideas of what other homeschoolers are doing.

Gourmet Cicadas

Cicadas live underground for 17 years before emerging, mating and making lots of noise for 30 days. Then it's quiet for another 17 years. The science of the Cicada is interesting. Read more at ABCnews. But what really drew me in was the interest people have in eating them. Watch the video clip for more info. Cicada sushi, Cicada tempura, Cicadatini (martini). Yuck! The reporter says they taste like ham. Well, then I'll just eat ham.
