Thankful Thursday – Thank You, Teacher! Teacher appreciation ideas for year round. It doesn’t have to be teacher appreciation week to show your love and support. Low cost random acts of kindness and small teacher gift ideas including free printables!

Thankful Thursday

As a former teacher (and survivor of a Virtual Teacher Appreciation Week in Quarantine), I have always instilled showing thanks for teachers. Often this comes with me picking up a candy bar at the checkout line or grabbing an extra cup of coffee “thanks a latte” before dropping my kids off at school. These are just because occasions.

There are many ways to show Teachers Appreciation without waiting until teacher appreciation week. One way to is adopt a Thankful Thursday. This does not have to be every Thursday, just choose a Thursday one a month or twice a year in send in something small.

Alternatively, the homeroom parent can create a classroom SignUpGenius. Easily organize a weekly Thankful Thursday with classroom signups for schools and classrooms. Promote a spirit of gratitude by gifting something small every Thursday.

How to Write a Thank You Note To Your Teacher

With electronics taking over, hand written notes are a thing of the past. Because of that, a handwritten note is more meaningful than an email or text. To show your upmost appreciation, use a pen or pencil to write your thank you note to your teacher.

First, start with blank canvas and outline positive words or phrases that come to mind when you think about this teacher. These are words you will want to put inside your letter.

Second, begin your letter with a salutation. This should be like with a “Dear _____,”

In your paragraph(s), give a reason your teacher has helped you or describe what they have done for you. Provide an example. Express the positive impact these words or actions had on you. How did this change you? Don’t forget your thanks.

End with a Closing. Choose a “Sincerely”, “All the best”, “Warm wishes”, “Deepest thanks” and/or “thank you again!”

Teacher Appreciation Thank You Messages

Thank you notes can be brief. They can short little messages with quick line of thanks. Consider some of these Thankful Thursday Quotes for Teachers when adding messages to your appreciation notes.

Thank you for believing in me.

You showed me how capable I am of achieving great things.

I don’t think you realize it, but you were such a huge influence on me this year.

I wanted to let you know how much of an impact you’ve made.

You are, hands down, the best teacher I’ve ever had.

Glamping Ideas for the Ultimate Camping Trip for the Girls! Glamping: where stunning nature meets modern luxury.

Glamping Ideas for the Girls!

If I get a chance to get away with the girls, sleeping arrangements are often more like a 4/5 start hotel over an outdoor camping facility. I have always wanted to get one with nature, but I really enjoy the comfort of a nice bed and the enjoyment of a temperature controlled environment. Since camping was always polyester tents and sand in my toes, and bed, I never really considered it. With the evolution of glamping, camping has one again peaked my interest!

If you have always desired a camping trip but feared loosing your comforts of electricity and down comforters, take a look at these Glamping Ideas for your next trip with the girls! Glamping is doing things outside of your comfort zone, while not straying too far!

These are the absolute Best Bread Machine Recipes. Check out our round-up of favorite homemade bread recipes you can perfect in the bread machine with simple secret recipes to create the best-tasting bread.

The Best Breadmaker Recipes

Calling all carb lovers! I have to admit, I absolutely have a weakness for bread. It’s filling, satisfying, and the possibilities of flavors you can add are endless! I’m no bread snob either — I love bread with fruit, white bread, wheat bread, and my favorite is bread with cheese and herbs… my mouth is watering just thinking about it!

Our bread machine is one of my favorite kitchen appliances. I love that you don’t have to worry about kneading or resting times — the bread machine does all of that for you, so that bread making isn’t a process that takes up your entire day. Because of this, I’m always looking for the best bread machine recipes and testing them out. Try these delicious bread machine bread recipes for the most delicious payoff with minimal effort!

What’s the best bread machine?

I assume if you are reading this list of the best bread machine recipes, you already have your bread maker. If not, it’s important to choose the right bread maker machine so it’ll last you forever.

If you’re anything like me, you grew up hearing about your mother’s bread maker brands like Oster and Sunbeam. Actually, the best bread maker machine on Amazon is this Cuisinart 2-Lb Convection Bread Maker. This is the same bread maker that will cost you way more at a specialty high-end food supply store!

Another popular bread maker machine worth mentioning is Cook’s Essentials 1.5-lb Stainless Steel Breadmaker. Plus, get $10 off your first order at QVC right now with code FRIENDS. This discounted Curtis Stone 2lb. Bread Maker on HSN is a favorite as well.

What supplies do you need for bread machine bread?

Now that you have your best bread maker, you might be wondering what else you need to make bread. When making bread machine bread, it’s best to have a few key supplies on hand. Once you get these, you can add whatever fillings or additions you like to jazz up a basic recipe.

Most importantly, you’ll need these three ingredients:

Yeast (or a bread starter)
Flour
Salt

Having these three bread ingredients plus a liquid (milk or water) will have you all set for your first loaf of bread machine bread.

What’s the best yeast for bread making?

For the best yeast for bread making, we recommend this best-selling yeast, Saf Instant Yeast. Additionally, Fleischmann’s Instant Yeast works great for a bread maker yeast!

A few other optional items to have on hand include…

I also recommend having this Baking Hacks & Tips Conversion Sheet on hand. It’s the perfect resource for bread making and you can instantly download it!

How long does homemade bread last?

Homemade bread doesn’t contain the extra preservatives that grocery store loaves often do. That’s a good thing if you’re looking for a more natural option to satisfy your craving for bread, but you’re going to need a solution to make it last longer. Here are a few tips for how to keep your bread machine bread fresh and preserve the life of a homemade loaf of bread by a few days.

BEE’S BREAD WRAP

Bee’s Bread Wrap is a natural, sustainable and earth-friendly way to keep your bread machine bread fresh without using plastic. Reusable Beeswax Food Wraps are a zero waste solution. They’ll even save you money over time since they can be reused! The antibacterial properties of the beeswax keep your bread machine bread as fresh as possible so you can enjoy it longer.

Bread Bins

Next up, Bread Bins are a cute and easy way to keep all your bread making creations fresh. The bin acts as a protective house for bread while letting in just the right amount of air circulation to keep your bread machine bread comfortable and make your homemade bread last longer.

Bread Storage Bags

Bread Storage Bags not only eliminate waste as a sustainable option, but extend the life of your bread machine bread as well. They’re made with cotton to create a breathable environment for the bread machine bread so it will stay mold-free longer.

The Best Bread Machine Recipes

In an effort to appease my love of bread, I hunted down some of the best bread machine recipes for home bread making. Enjoy all kinds of bread machine bread with additions like fruit, honey, vanilla, herbs, and your standard grains. We’ve got some of the best loaves for your bread machine, including a great sourdough bread machine recipe and a white bread machine recipe!

Ready for the bunny to visit? Enjoy these Easter Hot Chocolate Bombs with marshmallows before he comes. Dip these hot cocoa bombs in warm milk and out pops mini fruit flavored marshmallows. Just like bunny tails, only rainbow style!

Easter Hot Chocolate Bombs

So we all know that hot cocoa bombs are all the rage right now. If you look on Pinterest, you will see so many different kinds, colors, and themes. We decided to get really creative recently and came up with some Easter Hot Chocolate Bombs!

These sweet treats are beautiful with all their bright colors. They are {almost} too pretty to eat, especially with those Spring themed sprinkles on top.

And they are delicious when dropped into a cup of warm milk. Rather than using your normal white marshmalllows, we filled our chocolate bombs with colorful, fruit-flavored marshmallows. It’s an extra treat, if you aren’t expecting that flavor.

Make a batch of these Easter Hot Chocolate Bombs for your kiddo’s Easter basket, or send them to school for a special treat for the teachers.

The best thing about these bombs is that they can be made any time of year, not just at Easter. You could make them for a unicorn themed party even!

Make sure you take a look at our other Hot Chocolate Bombs Recipes while you are here!

Ingredients

Scale

1 12-ounce package white chocolate chips
1 packet instant cocoa mix
1 cup mini fruit flavored (rainbow) marshmallows
¼ cup Spring sprinkles (mine are Great Value brand from Wal-Mart)
6 cups hot milk to make the bombs

Cook Mode Prevent your screen from going dark

Instructions

First, place the white chocolate chips in a microwave safe bowl and microwave in 30 second intervals, stirring between each interval, until the chocolate chips are fully melted.
Put a spoonful of melted chocolate inside one cup on the silicone mold and use the back of the spoon to spread the chocolate up the sides of the mold. Continue this process until all the molds are coated.
Set the remaining chocolate aside for sealing and decorating the bombs.
Allow the chocolate to set completely, around 2 to 3 hours. You can speed up the process by placing the chocolate in the refrigerator.
When the chocolate is set, remove each of the chocolate pieces from the mold. Add a small amount of instant hot cocoa mix to half the pieces and top the hot cocoa mix with marshmallows.
Reheat the chocolate in 15 second intervals until melted. Pick up an empty chocolate piece and dip the edges into the melted chocolate. Carefully place it on top of a filled piece and lightly press it into place. Use your finger to smooth melted chocolate around the seam. Continue until all the chocolate bombs are sealed.
Drizzle the chocolate over the top of the bombs and decorate with Spring sprinkles.
Allow the chocolate decorations to set before using, around 1 hour.
To make the hot chocolate bombs, place the bomb in the bottom of a mug. Pour one cup of hot milk over the top of the bomb to melt the chocolate. When the chocolate is completely melted, stir to combine.

Moving Binder Printables & Moving Organization Tips

In the past two years my family and I have moved – TWICE. One was a cross country move (with movers), the second was moving four houses down (on the same street) while six months pregnant. I {almost} prefer the cross-country move! There was nothing pretty about me walking up and down the street with a huge belly and a load of boxes (yes, protective readers, I know carrying boxes when pregnant is a no-no and I am happy to report, we had a healthy baby boy this past October.) Regardless, I learned my lesson that hot summer, with the worse abdominal cramping. We settled in our new home, though, and with a young baby at home, I am ignoring the boxes in the corner that never got unpacked… because that just happens.

Home Staging Checklist Printable

Moving Binder Printables

When moving, I discovered the key to having sanity while moving is being organized. Because of my own need, I created a Moving Binder Printable, just for you! Enjoy it and personalize it for your home!

Inside the Moving Moving Binder Organizer

I ordered a 1 inch white 3-ring notebook. I love the ones that have the clear slip outside. This was my bible for moving (lowercase b – wink). For this printable you can get a 1 inch, 1.5 inch or 2 inch binder as I included a spine for all three sizes (then again, go as large as you want and just use a smaller spine printable!

This printable Moving Binder includes 26 pages of content to keep you organized. Many sections have multiple pages.

1.) Cover Page and Spine Title

We made this cover page bright so it is easy to find in the clutter. I recommend, however, always keeping it in the same place in your home so it isn’t lost. Typically the kitchen counter is best.

2.) Important Dates Calendar

Print out as many as you need. We have left the dates open so you can personalize the number and months to your schedule. Add the moving date, moving truck arrival date, home closing date, bill due dates, etc.

3.) To Buy Chart

Organize your purchases with a list of where you bought the item, the budgeted amount and how much you spent. This can be more purchases bigger and smaller! Add these 3-ring binder envelope organizers to store receipts in case returns or claims are needed.

4.) Essential Basket Checklist

When you move you need a basket that has all your supplies. This includes a box cutter, sticky notes, packing tape, scissors, permanent markers, tool kit, etc. I provide a checklist and keep some areas blank for you to add your own content.

5.) Car Inventory Checklist

You also want to include some items in the car – things that do not get stuck on the moving truck. Get cleaning and laundry supplies, pet food, perishable groceries, 7 days of clothing, etc.

6.) Box Inventory

Label each box with a number, the room where it is going and what is inside (this part is optional, but for some boxes you will really care!) If you are moving your entire house, you will need many pages of this document.

7.) Moving Budget Checklist

This checklist includes the cost of moving supplies as well as opening and closing utilities accounts.

8.) Change of Address Checklist

You will appreciate this resource. We list all the places you want to notify for changing and updating your address.

9.) Utility Service Information

This includes the name of the company, account numbers, cost, etc. This would be a good resource/page to print multiples. It also allows you and your spouse to communicate on one page without the question – did you do this? Or what’s that password agian?

10.) Move-in Cleaning Checklist

If time permits, even if just a day, we provided a checklist to clean your new home BEFORE you move in. Trust me, you will thank me later. This also provides a deep clean before furniture and boxes get in the way. Use it for your old home and your new home.

11.) Donation Tracker

For taxes, keep track of all your donations and the value.

12.) Thank You Notes

Thank those that help you move!

13.) Color Codes Box Labels

We have created a color coded label for each area of the home. We left some blank for your personalized use. We also included labels for fragile boxes! The white circles provided allow you to number the boxes. For example Master Bedroom 1, Master Bedroom 2, Master Bedroom 3…

For all of these sections, you can print as much as you need! If you have a really large donation list, print two or more pages of the donation tracker.

Essential Moving Basket

I told you above I included a essential moving basket checklist. Have a small basket in which you keep sharpie markers (for marking on boxes), packing tape, scotch tape, a box cutter, tool kit, paper towels, scissors, something to write with and your moving binder. This will be your best friend when packing boxes and unpacking boxes. Do not forget this basket!

I personally prefer to have my printables professionally printed at Staples. I can save on printer ink and get quality paper. All of these are fine for your home printer, but below are directions if you would like to do the same.

Give your job a name in the top left column.
Choose color or B&W.
Make sure your project is single sided. (You can choose double sided if you need.)
Choose the correct orientation of your project – landscape or portrait.
I changed my media to 8.5×11 67 lb card/coverstock (I prefer a card stock feel over printer paper feel. It makes the paper very durable and sturdy.)
Save your product to Staples or select add to cart on the bottom right.
Proceed to checkout.

You can choose to ship to your home or to pick up at your local store. Pay online and show your invoice when you pick up (I just show the order number on my phone at pick-up.) The order invoice will arrive in your email inbox.
