The Salmon Patty Recipe

Because of a request (thanks!), I'll give you this recipe real quick before I call it a night. Walking the new puppy on icy streets and sidewalks has given me an aching back, so it's time to go lay down, but here it is first:

Salmon Patties
from the Gloucester Virginia Celebrates 350 Years cookbook
1 (15-16 oz.) can salmon
1 egg
1/3 cup minced onion (we leave this out due to DS11 not liking it)
1/2 cup flour
1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
oil for frying

Drain salmon, setting aside 2 Tablespoons of the juice. In a medium bowl, mix salmon, egg and onion until sticky. Stir in flour. Add baking powder to salmon juice; stir into salmon mixture. Form into small patties and fry until golden brown, about 5 minutes on each side.

These are yummy with homemade tartar sauce (mayonnaise with pickle relish) or ketchup or whatever you like. And they're so simple to make even I can do it! When I have to ;-)...

Mmm that sounds yummy. I've never used the baking powder before. I'll have to try that.

Homeschooling/Unschooling Almost A Year Now

The kids took their annual, required standardized achievement test yesterday. This is the law in Minnesota, homeschoolers have to take the test and keep it in the files at home but we don't have to turn it in to the district or anything, unless there's a problem. It seems reasonable to me. Yesterday's test went well. A friend of mine, a former teacher, does the testing as a business, so the kids are really comfortable with her. She sets up her "office" at the library and devotes about an hour to each kid, using the Peabody Individual Achievement Test . The categories in the Peabody test are General Information (science, social studies, art, etc.); Reading Recognition; Reading Comprehension; Mathematics; Spelling. There are 100 questions per category, though they don't start each child at number 1 but somewhere before/below where they should be at and work up from there. One of my kids , age 9, tests just at or above her grade level. This is great. A confirmat...

On Family Meetings and Chores

ON FAMILY MEETINGS: On Friday night we held our first-ever Zahn Family Meeting. I've always felt that families who hold family meetings are so, well, organized and democratic and all that and we've just never gotten around to them (which speaks to my lack of organization, and probably democratic-ness, too). But on Thursday, after "crabbin' out" at the kids for not helping around the house enough, I decided to call a Family Meeting for the following night. I made the announcement to all, including dear husband, that the meeting would take place at exactly 6:30 p.m. after our Previously Scheduled Family Dinner at exactly 6:00 p.m. Just trying to be organized here... I asked the family members to come up with agenda items. Mine, of course, would be the subject of chores. I also said I would give a Treasurer's Report (a.k.a. "why we haven't paid your allowance since Christmas"). So the appointed hour came and the Meeting commenced. I asked for agenda...
