Laminators...I'm in the market!

So I noticed you can purchase laminators for $40 or even less, and ofcourse more!! With all the laminating I do, it just seems more cost efficient to own one!! Especially lately, I have been making a ton of activities for my littles. Some of these need to still go through 3-4 little kids. I currently use clear contact paper on everything, but that is tedious, not to mention not always effective! I think I would prefer one that I could use regular sized paper on, anything larger I would simply take into the copy shop to have laminated.

Anyone have a great suggestion??

    Melinda- Owning a laminator as a homeschooler is a BIG plus. You can get a fairly inexpensive laminator that will laminate full size sheets. Just as important are the laminating pouches. The less expensive laminators normally will not laminate anything thicker than a 5 mil pouch. Not a big deal though unless you need something very rigid. You might also check out the Xyron laminators. These do not require any heat or electricity, are very easy to operate, and you can make stickers and magnets as well as laminating. Hope this helps!

Sugar, oh sugar!!!

okay so as i have stated, we don't eat sugar. This being said, we do eat natural cane {also known as turbinado} sugar, honey, stevia and agava. I do try to limit this. I figure to some degree sugar is sugar, and not good, even in it's natural state. I don't want to get into a "sugar fight" with anyone! So all I am going to say, is it's quite common knowledge that sugar isn't good for you. I am a sugar lover! Always have been, I'm sure. I have a very, very, very sweet tooth. Sugar was hard for me to give up. Which is why I am so thankful for so many natural sweeteners! The reason we stopped, was knowledge, we started studying sugar, and learning about it, and we had to stop. As for our family, we had to give it up all or nothing, we are a cold turkey kind of family!!! We have tried to give up sugar, oh I don't know around 100 times!!! This time it finally stuck. The more I read, the more I study the more I am so thankful for that decision. So how di

Homemade bread for our large family

making bread has been a huge part of my life as a mother... here’s the problem, don’t start making homemade bread, unless you plan on doing it forever!!! Once you eat homemade bread, it’s didficult to eat store brought breads!!! Even some of the nicest, most expensive, they just seem so dry and bland.  That being said, I can make all our bread for our family of 11 (currently in the house) in about 15 minutes! (Not including the rise and bake time) I usually make it on the weekend, and then again around Wednesday or Thursday each week. Whenever I make it, I incorporate it into our dinner that night. Usually making 3 or 4  loaves of bread and 1 pan of rolls- for dinner. You see if you don’t do that, you’ll end up eating all of it the first night, right!!! No one can resist hot, fresh, homemade bread- especially with melted butter!!! 💖 So here’s the recipe, I know you’re all dying to have!  This should make about 5 loaves of bread, or a mix of bread and rolls  6 cu
