Birch Tree Art Idea
Here is a simple art idea for you to try out!
Supplies: paper, masking tape, watercolour or watered-down acrylic paint (in blue, purple, red, light blue, black, and yellow), large and small paintbrush, and a black oil pastel.
Start by taping 3-5 lines from top to bottom on the paper with masking tape. |
Add some branches with small pieces of tape. |
Paint blue streaks horizontally across the page. |
Add purple streaks. |
Add red streaks. |
Add a few light blue streaks. |
And finally some black. Let the paint dry. |
Carefully peel off the masking tape to reveal "birch trees", and then paint little yellow dots to be the fireflies or stars. |
Outline the trees with the black oil pastel, and add some lines along the edges. |
And you're done! |

Simple Brownies
Simple
Brownies
Time: 15 minutes
Makes: 3 large “brownie cakes” or 6 regular “brownie
cakes”
One of my favorite foods are brownies (Yum!), and sometimes I have a middle-of-the-day craving for them. So this is my new go-to recipe for a small batch of brownies!
Ingredients:
2 tbsp. butter
¼ cup chocolate chips
2 tbsp. brown sugar
2 tbsp. white sugar
2 pinches salt
½ of an egg
3 tbsp. all-purpose flour
Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 350*F and grease pan(s).
Combine the butter and chocolate chips while melting
them in a small saucepan.
Once completely smooth, pour into a heat-proof bowl
and mix in sugars and salt.
Then add in the egg, mix well, and finally add the
flour. Stir.
Pour into prepared pans and bake for 9-12 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the brownie(s) comes out clean.
Serve with icing sugar, whipped cream, or any other
favorite topping. Enjoy!

New Season, New Focus
I know I haven't posted for a bit so heres a few sentences for you to read :)
As we start this school season up again - and a time of special fall festivities - let us not only reflect on what we did, but prepare for what lies ahead. New adventures, new explorations, new seasons of life to enter.
A new season sometimes means a new focus - what is your new focus for this coming year?
