Building the Nest Building the Nest By Megan Cutler | December 17, 2012 | Comments 0 Comment My husband and I have always wanted kids. Building the nest is the first step. We agree it’s better to create good habits now, while it’s just the two of us in the house, rather than waiting until we have a newborn. With all the chaos kids create, trying to create new habits on top … Read More Read More
The Disney Experience The Disney Experience By Megan Cutler | December 3, 2012 | Comments 1 comment Earlier this year, a friend of mine won a Disney cruise for her whole family (herself, her husband and their two young boys).

A Touch of Nostalgia A Touch of Nostalgia By Megan Cutler | November 12, 2012 | Comments 2 comments I try not to talk to much about my personal life in this blog. It’s boring, and I’m sure most people don’t care. I prefer to stick to more interesting topics, like books, writing and video games. But this blog is, at times, a record of significant moments in my life. Fair warning, this post … Read More Read More
Ask Three Before Asking Me Ask Three Before Asking Me By Megan Cutler | November 5, 2012 | Comments 0 Comment My husband is a high school English teacher. I’ve drawn from his experience in the classroom before, and I’m doing it again.

And while it’s true that much of your … Read More Read More
Artificial Flavors Artificial Flavors By Megan Cutler | October 22, 2012 | Comments 4 comments I hate cooking. I really do. Part of it could be that I never really learned how to cook ‘properly.’ I probably never learned because I didn’t want to. I don’t know why my teenaged self thought it wasn’t important (since I cooked then almost as much as I do now; I just didn’t choose … Read More Read More

Small schools have their own unique problems, but they also present some unique teaching opportunities.

A Moment of Awe A Moment of Awe By Megan Cutler | June 25, 2012 | Comments 4 comments The phenomenon known as the transit of Venus occurs when Venus passes between Earth and the solar disk. The last transit of Venus occurred on June 6, 2012. Venus will not transit again until 2117. The event inspired reactions from my brother-in-law’s desire to watch Game of Thrones instead (because, and I quote “Venus is … Read More Read More

A chance to do all those things you said you were going to do last year but never got around to. We’re all guilty of it. Everyone embraces the new year. It’s a chance to start over, to shed all the negativity we’ve carried with us for a year … Read More Read More
