Printable: Motivational: Dance in the Rain
I've mentioned before that I enjoy rain and how it's cleansing and comforting. It's also really fun to do stuff in the rain. Yes, it's awesome to walk outside and see a beautiful day and feel the warm sun but it's something entirely different for it start pouring down rain and you decide it's a prime opportunity to not run for cover but do something fun...outside...in the rain. I have gone swimming (it's really fun to be in the water while it's raining), I've walked barefoot and splashed in puddles, and Superman kissed me in the rain. So enjoy something you think is ruining your day.

Disney: Snack Recommendation: Butterfinger Cupcake
So yes, today I'm talking cupcakes. I love cupcakes and Disney makes exceptional ones. (They put grey stuff on cupcakes at Be Our Guest, come on!). Last time we were in Disney we finally stopped at the ever popular Starring Rolls Cafe. We tend to enjoy the soon to be gone Writer's Stop more but for 4 years we'd seen Starring Rolls at the top of lots of people's lists for yummy snacks and quick service. So we finally put it on our itinerary and tried it on our last trip. Depending on when you stop the line can be long, the place is small so that means cramped and if you stop after breakfast time it's pretty much snacks only. They didn't seem to have anything that made them stand out or different so it's not a must do for us. However, I tried one of the most delicious and sweet cupcakes I ever had and it had my favorite - a mountain of icing on top with filling in the middle. I discovered the legendary Butterfinger Cupcake. First, it's a giant cupcake so you could eat it for a meal or share it with someone. It's a chocolate cupcake with chocolate ganache filling and it's topped with a peanut butter icing and covered in another layer of ganache with butterfinger crumbs. There was so much icing! It took me a few bites to get to some actual cake. This is a very rich cupcake so it will satisfy a sweet tooth and then give you a cavity. I like the sweet stuff but even towards the end it started to be a bit much for me. I suggest using a fork to get through this thing because it's massive. The cake was delicious - it was lush and dense and it worked well with the icing. Make sure you have a drink, you'll need it. It's a cupcake that worked for me and since it's a rich dessert it wasn't something I'd get over and over again which means it will always be a special treat.

Printable: Teaching: What My Grade Means
Students know an A is good and if they get an F their parents will kill them. But do they understand it's a reflection of their knowledge. It shows where we may need to reteach with them or challenge them to make sure they continue to grow. But how do you get that point across to them? I decided to make a printable to help showcase what it is that their grade means.
