Weekly Publisher's Note July 26-August 1, 2021

CertifiKID Deals and announcements

By Brittany Joyner July 25, 2021

Hey y'all.

We've spent this week at home-playing with every old toy we could find and making ALL the new recipes! Thai Coconut Curry Chicken, German Pancakes, fish tacos.. Just trying to use every bit of food in my freezer. I love trying new things. Like, I rarely make the same recipe twice because there's just so many to try! My mom on the other hand, has the same 6 recipes in rotation every few weeks. Do you like trying new things or do you prefer routine? 

As promised, the Back to School Guide is live! It's full of back to school events, information about Killeen ISD, Belton ISD, and Temple ISD, and some fun back to school printables.
