I couldn’t be happier that summer break is here. Even with having two kids home the entire school year with homeschooling, I have been so ready to have my oldest home daily as well. We really jumped full swing into summer break. The first two days were filled with regular chores, appointments, errands, meetings, and more errands, so after that we were more than ready to spend some quality time in the kitchen.
