My All-Time Favorite Learning Programs

No Comments
| At Home Activities, Motherhood

I will never be a room parent, a Girl Scout leader, or anything resembling something crafty. I’m too impatient to be a teacher and too uninterested and/or untalented to make up my own lesson plans or learning programs. Needless to say, distance learning was hard for me. Hard. Even before the pandemic, I was struggling. […]

I had been eyeing the new brunch offering at @namikaze.hi and finally got to experience it last week. Orders were placed via mobile ordering (which I love so much and hope this eventually becomes a standard in the restaurant industry). We ordered:
Full disclosure: I didn’t know too much about Claude Monet when I eagerly sat at my computer a couple months back waiting for ticket sales to start for Beyond Monet: the Immersive Experience. But I had had such a wonderful time at the similar Van Gogh exhibit last year that I figured I’d give it a try.
