grandma's cookbook - Blueberry Lemonade Cheese Cake Pie (No Bake!)
Since it is the Great American Pie Month, it is a great time to try new desserts for get-togethers and if the dessert is a tasty no-bake recipe it could not possibly be more perfect! I was browsing on Pinterest and found a recipe for Raspberry Lemonade Cheese Cake Pie, but thought it could easily be switched to Blueberry Lemonade and had to share it with you!
It is National Homemade Soup Day

So, gather the ingredients (you probably have them already), invite some family and/or friends, and get your soup going . . . it will be a tasty meal for sure!

Read Aloud to a Child Day AND Take a Child to a Library Day!
Technically yesterday was Read Aloud to a Child Day AND Take a Child to a Library Day, but these are things we can do every day, so I'm writing about them today. We all know statistics show children are not progressing when it comes to reading. We also all know when we read to a child from their earliest days and when we take them to libraries, we are showing them the value of reading and children who are read to and who visit libraries do better when it comes to reading. They become people who read! "World Read Aloud Day is heavily supported by LitWorld, an organization dedicated to bringing literacy to the world at large."
It's Ukulele Day & the Kala Learn To Play Color Chord Ukulele
Over the years I have reviewed a number of items, so I thought I'd go back and pull a few of my past reviews to recommend again this year. If you are looking for a great idea for the ones you love, consider this . . . If you are looking for a fun, unique gift, or just because, a ukulele might be just the thing. I contacted Kala and they sent me their wonderful Kala Learn To Play Color Chord Ukulele to review; today I am very happy to let you know about this wonderful ukulele.

grandma's cookbook - It is the Great American Pie Month and Bake for Family Fun Month, So Make . . . Apple Dessert!
February is the Great American Pie Month and Bake for Family Fun Month - these two celebrations definitely go together very well! I live in Michigan . . . otherwise known as Apple Country, so I have to have at least one go-to apple recipe! For me, it is my Apple Dessert . . . I know, not an incredible name, and not "technically" pie, but it is very close to being pie and it does taste incredible! It is very simple to make and if your family likes apples, it is a dessert they are sure to love - especially as they Bake for Family Fun during the Great American Pie Month!
