What landed on the counter this week? Aug 27-31st

By Jen

The last week of summer vacation in our house. Hard to believe that summer vacation is behind us and the first day of school is Tuesday. Really?

On Monday we enjoyed a farmers' market dinner filled with perfectly roasted beets and a blueberry sauce for chicken.

On Wednesday, we jumped into learning something entirely new...how to properly save tomato seeds.

Thursday we wrapped up our summer tour of the Toronto Public Libraries. This summer we visited a handful of new library branches in our city. On Thursday, we shared an amazing selection of library inspired activities, ideas for libraries to visit around the globe and tips for utilizing your library fully.

Friday was our latest edition of the Outdoor Play Party! We have a new co-host and another collection of fabulous outdoor play ideas to inspire you.

Thanks so much for another fabulous week. Sunday we'll be posting about what we have learned about French Polynesia, specifically Tahiti with Around the World in 12 Dishes.

Looking for more ways to connect with your kids, why not follow Kitchen Counter Chronicles on Facebook, Pinterest, Google + and Twitter.
