    When I started homeschooling year round, I tried to prepare everything in advance for a seamless year. It was unrealistic planning due to the unpredictable nature of children's learning and development. The real success in homeschooling comes from flexibility and regularly assessing and adjusting plans. Avoid burnout by regularly connecting to your why and adjusting as needed for the children in front of you. Take advantage not only of the homeschool lifestyle, but of the year-round homeschool schedule!

    Try this! Cook from your pantry, not from the grocery store

    Try this! Cook from your pantry, not from the grocery store

    Download my master pantry list: https://simplyconvivial.com/pantry
    Most overly elaborate menu planning instructions have you write a grocery list while you plan. After all, you want to have the right ingredients on hand is necessary, right? But that means the menu planning has to happen before you go to the store, which has to happen before you’re able to cook dinner from your plan…and it’s actually tricky to work it all out in real life. I have a better way.
    Create your pantry basics list, stock those things, buy more when those things are on sale, put meat in the freezer - Then menu plan from what you already have on hand.Separate the planning from the shopping so one isn’t contingent on the other.
