    It was the Best of Times...

    We're back for Season 2 with Learning to Learn After 40! It's been a year of learning and life, and we are excited to bring you along for the conversation of all that we've learned. As we kick off this new season, join us as we discuss our second literary spotlight talking about Charles Dickens' classic "A Tale of Two Cities". It's a beautifully woven tale by a master story-teller that speaks of themes such as vengeance and redemption.  We sure learned a lot about the French Revolution through reading this profound work of literature, and we're sure you will too!

    It's supposed to look like this. It's Crochet

    Working with your hands brings so much joy. When that work creates something beautiful, even more so. The fibre arts are just such a way to do that creating.  Join us as we discuss this modality we are learning and how it brings us back to a time and space of slowing down, community and intentionality. Plus who doesn't love an art that you can literally take everywhere with you to work on. IG reference to check out: indiarosecrawford and her Frog and Toad stories.

    Tastes Like Chicken

    *Disclaimer* This episode discusses details concerning chicken harvesting. If you are squeamish about such things, or that is not something you like to talk about, please skip this episode. A+A Farm to table takes on a whole new world when it's your farm and it's your table and you are the one responsible for getting from A to B with your meat. Join us as we discuss what we have learned so far in our endeavours of chicken (and other animals) harvesting and how this dynamic has changed how we view our food and the connection we have with it. Also how amazing it tastes. Chicken harvesting is not for the faint of heart, but it is a skill that anyone can learn. It's often a community event where family and friends gather to process food, enjoy a meal together, and be present with one another.

    How Can You Read This? There's No Pictures!

    "To be or not be, that is the question." - Hamlet "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times..." - A Tale of Two Cities "When you read a book as a child, it becomes a part of your identity in a way that no other reading in your whole life does." - You've Got Mail There is something about the written word that sparks imagination and roots itself deep within us. Classical literature is the same but with one exception, that it also presents a vast vocabulary beyond what our modern world offers in today's age.  Words that portray images so vivid one can't help but see them clearly. Rich and bold, the classics hold a world that should be ventured into on a regular basis. The Scarlet Letter is just such a classic. In this episode we delve into this book, its story, characters, themes, and settings in our very first Literature spotlight. We hope you'll come along for the conversation.

    "Why Is All The Rum Gone?!"

    “The best education does not happen at a desk, but rather engaged in everyday living – hands-on, exploring, in active relationship with life.” – Vince Gowmon “Homeschooling: Because who doesn’t love pajamas?” – Unknown As homeschooling moms we have learned A LOT! This journey and commitment requires a daily willingness to learn something new alongside our kiddos as we traverse numerous topics, delve into discussions, wrestle with math concepts and take one day at a time to face whatever comes. It's a challenging yet richly rewarding journey. One that we wouldn't change for anything...just make sure the rum is stocked at the end of the day LOL. Join us in this episode as we walk through our individual journeys of homeschooling, how things have shifted over the years and what we have learned along the way, besides what a quadratic graph looks like.

    He Looks All Hairy and Slobbery To Me

    "Does your dog bite?" "No." "Nice doggy." (dog bites) "I thought you said your dog did not bite?" "That is not my dog." - The Pink Panther (1976) Dogs, Canis familiaris in Latin, are man's best friend. Kids the world over desire a puppy and constant companion. Families get dogs for a variety of reasons, for work around the farm, for showing, for guarding their property or other animals, to keep them company, or just to be the family pet. But what happens if your dog is not trained properly, or at all? In this episode we explore our journey of how to train your dog (kinda like a dragon, but cuter). We delve into some of the signs that let us know our dog is needing some training, what you can expect, how training your dog can significantly improve the relationship you have with your lovable pet, which traits we think are cute but are actually your dog trying to assert dominance over you, the order of the pack and how that manifests itself in your dogs personality, and much, much more.   Training your dog is hard work. Persistent work. But worth it. We hope you'll enjoy listening in as we delve into a topic that affects so many of us. And we hope you'll learn something new along the way as well.

    Veni Vidi Vici

    "I came. I saw. I conquered" - Julius Caesar Latin. A language that we never realized we needed in our life. There is so much goodness in this language as we are learning to understand it, read it, translate it and build our knowledge of the foundation of language through it. Join us as we have a conversation and ask questions around why we should learn Latin and explore the many facets of this dead language and the truth, goodness and beauty found within. For those that are interested in learning more we mentioned a few curriculums available (although there are many more than listed here): - Henle Latin - Jam with Latin - I heart Latin A smattering of some English words derived from Latin as mentioned in this episode: - absum (am away, am distant) we get absent - perturbō (confuse, disturb) we get perturbed - terra (earth, land) we get terrain - amīcus (friend) we get amicable - dux (leader) we get Duke - lēx, lēgis (law) we get legal - vōx, vōcis (voice, cry) we get voice - hostis (enemy (in war)) we get hostile - pater (father) we get paternal - māter (mother) we get maternal - portus (harbor) we get port - adventus (arrival, coming) we get Advent - grātiae (thanks) we get gratitude - prīmus (first) we get primary - magnus (great, large) we get magnitude - altus (high, deep) we get altitude - mūrus (wall) we get mural - gravis (heavy, severe, serious) we get grave (a grave matter) - brevis (short) we get brief - urbs (city) we get urban - eques (horseman, pl. cavalry) we get equestrian - occupō (seize) we get occupied - numerus (number) we get numerals (Roman numerals) - mors, mortis (death) we get mortal (mortal wound) - hīberna (winter quarters) we get hibernate - timeō (fear) we get timid Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!): https://uppbeat.io/t/aaron-paul-low/lemon-merengue License code: UKUY1QHRM4FN0NQZ Support the show

    So It Begins

    We are Andrea Engi and Aryn Werezak and we love to learn. And we also love to talk and laugh. We figured a podcast would be a great way to do all three at the same time and share our love of learning with others who are in this same stage of life as we are. We both believe that learning is a lifelong skill and we have the capacity to learn new things no matter what stage of life we find ourselves in. In this first episode we explore the nature of learning, why we decided to start a podcast and also share a bit about ourselves and who we are. We hope you'll come along with us for the ride as we start this journey.
