As parents, teachers, and students gear up for a new school year, we wanted to provide some quick and easy ways to “go greener.” One of the easiest ways to become more sustainable is to take inventory of the school supplies already in your home! If items such as backpacks or clothing need to be replaced, check out your local second-hand stores and thrift shops. These options will help you reduce your use while also saving you money!Read More →

Baking is as much a science as it is an art form. Combine flour, sugar, and eggs, add a little bit of heat, and voila! You have a tasty treat to enjoy with friends and family. One of my family’s favorite traditions around the holidays is to bake and build our own gingerbread houses, which is actually a great way to test your STEAM skills! If you’re feeling adventurous, check out this recipe from Food Network: Gingerbread House Recipe. If you’re still developing your baking skills, you can always find a gingerbread house kit in your local grocery store. Happy holiday eating!Read More →
