I am always afraid that mayonnaise-based summer pasta and potato salads will spoil when left out during summer barbecues. After taking a Food Safety course at the Nanny Institute I probably won’t be using mayonnaise for picnics and school lunches ever again. So, I tried to make an olive oil based summer salad instead.

Children love helping make meals. If you care for a finicky eater it helps to include them in making their meals. They will eat what they prepare themselves. An 8-year-old I care for made these open faced sandwiches for her entire family. Use your favorite vegetables and cheese — whatever the members of your Nanny […]
This is a delicious recipe for vegetarians and carnivores alike that I found at the afamilyfeast web site. There is so much filling that I use more large zucchinis than the original recipe or freeze the additional filling to use at a later date. You can easily double and triple the recipe if making for […]

This is a fun red, white, and blue cake my Nanny Kids and I made for Independence Day. I always have the children help bake dessert with me. Visit the Beth Cakes web site for the recipe.
It is fun trying new recipes. I never made rhubarb muffins before until I found this rhubarb muffin recipe at allrecipes.com. Children love baking! The children absolutely loved the muffins. So be sure to allow the children in your care to help gather the ingredients, measure, mix, and pour as much of the recipe as […]
