Popping in for an UPDATE

Dear Readers,


It has been so long since I have posted in this space. I trust we've all had some time to read, experiment, practice and grow in that time.

I have been doing all of the above and am appreciating life.

I now am now a mother to sons no long in the single digits - agewise! I've found that it's true what they say about the days being long but the years being short. I am such a proud mum and can't wait for the summer break to begin!

I enjoy a handful of leisure activities. Reading continues to be the love of my life. This is not an exaggeration. I'm making an effort to integrate more fiction again as I have read almost only fiction for the past four or five years. And for me, that's a lot of non-fiction. What else? Although mastering Bridge continues to be a challenge for me. I tend to fall back on Scrabble because I've played it for years and am a pretty good recreational player. Bridge is very math-y yet social plus, as I understand it, it's important for brain health to continue to learn new things. Speaking of brain health, I contend that Baking is Science. So, there's that.

I continue to be our family's Director of Operations and Facilities Management whilst continuing to teach part-time and relaunch my Children's Etiquette Business. This time I'm adding a Tea Party component. I love that I have a business reason to acquire some new dresses and maybe a hat or two. 

There's loads more but this is all for today. Feel free to share advice you may have on the following topics:

Where to you find good simple healthy recipes on-line that actually taste good?
How do you manage typical teens and screen time?
What the best source/way to learn to play Bridge?
What are the most important matters of etiquette all children in America should know?
What do you moms do for fun? 

Until next time,

Xoxo,
Sylvie
