Not Your Average Mormon Housewife Recipe Blog

On the first day of school I'm having my students write a recipe... for themselves. This is a good way for me to get to know them, as well as providing an opportunity for creativity. We're also making a school-wide effort to increase reading and writing in all disciplines, which I think is a fantastic idea. Everyone, even you. Yes you. College attending or not. You should read and write more. (Hint: it makes you smarter.)



I have a policy of doing each assignment I'm asking my kids to do so that I make sure

A. It isnt ridiculous

B. I have good instructions for them

C. I can answer any questions/prevent problems



Therefore I condensed myself down to a recipe. What is YOUR recipe? Enjoy!
