Bee Scared is about the challenges of climate change and global warming

December 10, 2021December 10, 2021 Erin Sluka

Bee Scared (The Old Doc Turtle Series) introduces the challenges of climate change and global warming to children. The problem is the story and the discussion is with you and your child. Bees are disappearing and fast! Can the Bees and Queen Bee find a way to keep their bee hive safe?

Without bees we don’t have fruit because they are not pollinating plants. Auntie Bee and Doc Turtle come to help with some ways to keep them safe and stay busy.

Richard Faith is the Author and this is a first book in what will be a series about the importance of bees to our planet. Faith is also the executive director of Mother Nature Festival Live Incorporated (http://mothernaturefestival.live), a 501(c)3 nonprofit that works to educate, inform and inspire everyone to get involved in helping Mother Nature.

Food

Dinner, Drinks and Snacks for your next movie night!

December 10, 2021September 18, 2022 Erin Sluka

It’s getting cold and busy and one thing you need to remember to do is to stop and enjoy this season. We like to find a night or 2 a week and make a very easy meal, find a good movie and have the snacks ready for a night in. Clear the calendar and enjoy each other in the middle of the chaotic Holiday season. I have the dinner, drinks and snacks ideas covered for you!

Our favorite quick meals are homemade taquitos. I can use any leftover meats and veggies and use them up in this simple dish. I use low carb tortillas and gather any meat, veggies and beans and heat that up with some melted or nacho cheese and roll up in a tortilla. I place them in a baking dish, brush with olive oil and bake in 425 degrees for about 15 minutes until the top browns and crisps a bit.

I always keep bean pouches available for this because they are easy to tear open and add to any dish like this. No can opener mess! Fillo’s has great beans full of great flavors. From baked beans to black or pinto beans in a Mexi-night meal, these pouches are fantastic to have on hand. They are non-GMO and made in America, ready to eat or heat.

When it is time to watch your movie, we grab the waters and snacks. ShineWater has great flavors that those who don’t enjoy drinking water can enjoy their flavor burst. There is zero added sugar and no artificial ingredients. This is a guilt-free flavored beverage that comes in a few flavors as well as added Vitamin D and other vitamin boosts.

Our teens favorite snacks are gummy candies. Licorice and Sour Punch are at the top of the favorite list. For the Holidays, Red Vines has their original or flavored licorice twists such as the Gingerbread twists. Sour Punch also has fun Holiday shapes and flavors.

Grab an easy recipe, your snacks and a little Holiday movie time and enjoy a night in with these American brands.
