A friend of mine recently started a podcast called Parenting Tomorrow’s Leaders.
Although I’m not a parent, I have 30 kids I engage with every single week one-on-one.
The very first episode spoke directly to a struggle I have with a couple students.

In my last post I shared my top 25+ “healthy” recipes (at least what’s deemed healthy in the Chaplin household. 🙂 ) I mentioned I struggle with Kale, but being that it’s such as superfood if I find a good recipe that uses, it, I hang on tight! (Here’s one of my favorite kale recipes). Just this week, a piano teacher on Facebook shared a book her Aunt wrote called No Kale Required! (Healthy Eating Ideas for the Rest of Us). Well, there ya go!
If you missed my healthy recipe post. Check it out here:
See ya next week!
P.S. My last video in my Evernote for the Independent Music Teacher series will be available soon – keep an eye out! Catch up on Post 1 and Post 2.
