I went food shopping for my grandpa this week because my family does not want him to leave the house. He is stubborn and feels stuck inside, but I know that going to the supermarket for him is the best way to make sure he stays healthy.

I tutored a child who was struggling with mathematics, specifically with adding and subtracting fractions. After walking him through a few questions where he made a few errors and wasn't sure why, he asked me how to approach a question that asked to show addition with a number line. We started to get somewhere but we'll further discuss that, and other items, in the next tutoring session tomorrow.

Oatmeal Quick Bread

This recipe was one I discovered when searching for an easy, no-knead bread to make at home. It's quite simple to make, delicious, and a fun activity to do with family.

Ingredients: 1 Cup Rolled Oats, 1.5 Cups Whole Wheat Flour, 2 Teaspoons Baking Powder, .5 Teaspoon Salt, 1.5 Tablespoons Honey, 1 Tablespoon Vegetable Oil, 1 Cup Milk

Directions: Begin by preheating the oven to 450 Degrees. Grind oatmeal in a food processor. In a large bowl, combine oatmeal, flour, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, dissolve honey in oil, then stir in the milk. Combine both mixtures and stir until a soft dough is formed. Form the dough into a ball, using a bit of flour to prevent sticking, and place on a lightly oiled baking sheet. Bake in preheated over for about 20 minutes.
