Roasted Cauliflower


Cooking is one of my favorite things to do and I haven't posted much about food in a long time. I recently made this roasted cauliflower and it was so good I had to share, I just love cauliflower!

Here is the super easy recipe

Ingredients:
One head of cauliflower
Olive Oil
Herbs (fresh or dry)
Parmesan Cheese
Salt
Pepper

Recipe:
1. Preheat oven to 450
2. Toss your cauliflower with a drizzle of olive oil on a baking sheet
3. Roast cauliflower for 20 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes
4. Sprinkle with herbs (I used an Italian blend) roast for 5 more minutes
5. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese 
6. Season to taste with salt and pepper

Voila! Enjoy!!

Where We Learn

We're getting prepared to start our first official year of homeschooling after Labor Day. We've been working hard to get our house in order, putting everything in its place to help keep us organized throughout the year. We don't have a super awesome amazing school room but we are lucky enough to have several areas in our house that are comfortable for learning, here is where we learn.

The Living Room
Our super comfy couch, perfect for snuggling up to read or watch a movie
Our (not as full as I'd like) bookcases. They're still awaiting our curriculum books
A horrible example of organization, the computer desk...

The Girls' Room
Where we do circle time in the morning
A little nook for doing puzzles, worksheets, etc. 
In the closet, storage for books puzzles, worksheets

The Kitchen
The kitchen table is great for working together. Our art table in the background is a great place for getting messy
Our arts and crafts supply closet, the girls have access to pretty much anything

We can't wait to get our first year underway!! We're so happy we have several places in our house for learning all the time, sometimes together and sometimes alone. We also have a great backyard for laying out a blanket and several parks that are great for bringing books, exploring and exercising.
