This month we read the book 'The False Friend' by Myla Goldberg. The discussion was insightful and comforting. I love feeling impowered by the thoughts of others and learning that we all struggle with life. We all are trying to keep our children safe from bullying and trying to build self-esteem in the process. Listening to others that have been successful in the process is comforting.
Below are the recipes for Chicken a la 'QUEEN' and Nicole's delicious Chocolate Cake.
