We’ve been meaning to go to Hannah Bea’s ever since we moved to North Portland. I even drove past it today, and thought about it. Now that I have this affirmation, next time I will stop.

Mallory–homeschooling is *all about* pound cake. And any other dessert your heart desires. When you are homeschooling, you can consider a trip to Hannah Bea’s to be a field trip, and of course, everyone knows that baking goodies at home is math.

Wacky Mommy, are you really going to homeschool? I think the homeschooing community would be honored to have you join it’s ranks.

The first book about the writer looks cool and I like to read funny stuff.

I have asked if I could enroll my kiddos at your homeschool before – now I want in! Poundcake, indeed.

Hi Wacky Mommy,
I love pound cake, and even better if it’s lemon glaze topped. I bet that would go good with a cup of coffee…

Edj, today it’s about 100 percent, it would appear.

Hey I comment! Shut your griping! Just kidding. I totally feel your pain. I figure I’m lucky if 10 percent of my blog stats comment. Do you run about that?

I believe Portland Public Schools has a new Health and Wellness policy. While it directs ways to not turn kids into crackheads, it totally left out ways to avoid infestation. I suppose steps such as a 1/2 sheet of paper sent home with each child in a lice-infested classroom would be too costly and labor-intensive. Ditto the email blast to affected households with internet connections. Way too expensive. And the automatic phone call the district delivers when your kid is absent for one freakin day? Way to costly and who wants to bother? Easier to watch them itch and send each and every head of household of affected kids to the loony bin with delirious eshaustion from cleaning and nit-picking. So please cut the school district a break and understand that there could never be a way for them to possibly notify you that critters were crawling around your child’s classroom. The $1.20 for copies could cause the whole house of cards budget to crash down. While home-schooling may not be cheaper (gelato and pound cake expenses add up) it is definitely healthier. Good luck Wacky Family!

I’m a bad commenter. more of a lurker, but really actually, stalker-ish I suppose. ?I retain information like a sponge, and then email, and bloggers think I’m a freak, so I shut up.

Er, perhaps I should do the shutty up thing now.
