With school coming to a close, we're always up for finding ways to keep the kids busy, educated, and entertained. Summer should be fun, after all. One thing we love doing is learning about things from different cultures. I believe that in today's multicultural world, having a solid enough understanding of people, places, and things that may seem strange or "different" is an important thing when it comes to kids. My children absolutely love immersing themselves in different cultures, and they always have tons of questions to ask. 

One thing we'll be doing this summer is letting the kids watch age-appropriate, foreign films. One great, South Korean film is set to hit the shelves in June! 
Spoiler: It's delightfully weird, by American standards. 

GKIDS and Shout! Factory have announced the release of the charming fantasy/science fiction romance 
Satellite Girl and Milk Cow on Blu-ray/DVD on June 5, 2018. Bonus features include the short film Coffee Vending Machine And Its Sword, and trailers.

Unless you've been under a rock, or hidden like Wakanda, you're probably well aware of the story of "Black Panther", part of the MARVEL Universe. My kids have seen this film several times now, and my 18 year old said it's among the best MARVEL stories yet! Starting tomorrow, May 15th, you can bring home your own copy on 4K Ultra HD™, Blu-ray™, DVD and On-Demand.

Before you run out and buy it, let me tell you a bit about this fantastic adventure, which takes place in the hidden kingdom of Wakanda. 

 
Marvel Studios’ “Black Panther,” the highly celebrated story of T’Challa (Chadwick Boseman), a young African prince who takes on the mantle of King and Super Hero, has thrilled and inspired generations of moviegoers around the globe. Now, fans can bring home the phenomenon, packed with light-hearted fun, pulse-pounding action and a powerful message, and watch it over and over again, Digitally in HD and 4K Ultra HD™ and Movies Anywhere on May 8 and on 4K Ultra HD™, Blu-ray™, DVD and On-Demand on May 15.  With both Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos immersive sound, 4K Ultra HD offers consumers a transformative viewing experience.
 
Through the 4K Cinematic Universe Edition of “Black Panther,” fans will experience the exhilarating adventure in stunning 4K Ultra HD with next-generation high dynamic range (HDR) visuals and Dolby Atmos immersive audio. Never-before-seen extras feature commentary from director Ryan Coogler; deleted scenes; outtakes; and several making-of featurettes, which detail the Black Panther’s evolution, the remarkable women of Wakanda, the history of T’Challa’s proud nation, and the cosmic origin and technological applications of vibranium. Also included are a roundtable discussion with “Black Panther” filmmakers and writers; a featurette tracing the countless connections between heroes, characters and storylines within the Marvel Cinematic Universe; and an exclusive sneak peek at “Ant-Man and the Wasp.”
 
The global cultural phenomenon of “Black Panther” has dominated the box office charts emerging as the third biggest movie of all time domestically with over $665 million – the first film in eight years to spend five weeks at No. 1 – and rising to the global top 10 of all time with over $1.3 billion. In the acclaimed film, T’Challa returns home to the hidden high-tech African nation of Wakanda to succeed to the throne and take his rightful place as king, following the death of his father. But when a man named Killmonger (Michael B. Jordan) appears, T’Challa’s mettle as king—and Black Panther—is tested when he’s drawn into a formidable conflict that puts the fate of Wakanda and the entire world at risk. Pitted against his own family, the king must rally his allies and release the full power of Black Panther to defeat his foes and embrace his future as an Avenger.

​
Women are often so busy that we put our own health and wellness on the back burner. After all, when there are so many demands on us, such as kids, careers, and maintaining a home, it's easy to allow ourselves to fall by the wayside. However, it's SO important to put ourselves, and our health, first. Let's be real here....Unless we take care of ourselves, we're no good to anyone else. Self-care is not a selfish act.

To help celebrate National Women's Health, I'd like to talk about an easy, absolutely painless way to help promote overall wellness: Getting the right supplements! 

​Women of all ages take vitamins to supplement the vitamins and minerals that we can’t always get or get enough of from the foods we eat. That’s why you want to choose the cleanest, purest on the market today that are also GMO-Free. You can have absolute confidence in choosing Superior Source Vitamins, who maintains strict quality control standards. They have over 180 vitamins for the entire family–mom, dad, kids and even grandparents! 
​
Best of all, Superior Source Vitamins are MicroLingual® with “Under the Tongue Technology” that works fast, and are quickly absorbed into the body, dissolving in seconds. Did you know that...by swallowing supplements, as much as 50% of the potency is lost in the high acid environment of the stomach? With Superior Source, this is no longer a problem! 

What Makes Superior Source Vitamins Unique:
​

-No pills to swallow–dissolves in seconds
​-GMO FREE and Sugar FREE
-90% smaller than regular vitamins
-No binders, fillers, dyes or preservatives
-Only 3 clean ingredients
-Over 180 vitamins to choose

Now that school is about to be out for both my homeschoolers and my High School SENIOR, (How did that even happen?!) we're beginning to settle into our typical summer routine. 

As a blogger and homeschool Mom, I work from home. (Obviously.) This allows me the chance to have less frantic mornings, and a little more wiggle room when it comes to our daily schedules. We have the luxury of being able to call the shots each morning, especially during summer when there are literally no demands on the kids' schedules. 

Want to stay up late and have a movie marathon, and sleep in the next morning?

Sure!

Breakfast out on the deck, and then playing outside all day while Mommy listens to tunes and blogs from her cushy, outdoor workstation? 

Why not?

Actually, breakfast outside is one of my favorite things to do during the summer season. NE Ohio typically has gorgeous summers, and we love spending most of our time outdoors. 

One way we make breakfast out on the deck easy and painless is by choosing to include Entenmann’s Little Bites® Banana Muffins. These are convenient, guilt-free, and absolutely delish! These mini-muffins are only 180 calories per serving, and contain no high fructose corn syrup and 0g trans-fat.

Vegan Portobello Mushroom Bruschetta

Vegan Portobello Mushroom Bruschetta

Portobello mushroom bruschetta is a wonderful Italian-inspired dish that can be served by itself as an appetizer or with a green salad and potato for a full meal. This recipe is lightning fast, healthy, and most important, utterly delicious. 

This dish takes no more than 15 minutes to complete, from prep to plating, making it a great choice if you're strapped for time. All of the ingredients come straight from the garden, so you can feel good about what you're eating. Flavorful Portobello mushrooms combine with fresh tomatoes, fragrant basil, garlic, and just a touch of salt and pepper. In fact, the recipe is completely vegan, not that anyone will notice. The savory mushroom and rich tomato certainly satisfy taste buds and hungry bellies.

Who doesn't love a hearty Italian meal? It's the ultimate comfort food. No one can resist a sweet red sauce layered over a filling pasta and paired with crusty, buttery garlic bread. Unfortunately, how you feel while you're enjoying your penne is usually completely different from how you feel after. The heaviness of the pasta and the doughy bread can leave you feeling tired and weighed down from carb overload. You'll experience all of the pleasure and none of the post-meal regret with this Portobello mushroom bruschetta. It's high in flavor while also packed with protein, low in carbs, and gluten-free. 

Serve these at your next dinner party as an alternative to the usual cheese and cracker board. Your guests will be touched by your extra effort, even though you'll know you spent almost no extra time at all! They taste great and look gorgeous. The vivid red and green of the tomatoes and basil will brighten up any table. Offer them on a wooden cutting board for a homey, rustic feel. 

They also work beautifully as a light main course during the summer when you're in the mood to fire up the grill and dine al fresco. Plate them along with grilled corn on the cob and a fresh potato or cucumber salad for the ultimate healthy barbecue meal. You'll be satisfied, but the ingredients are light enough that you'll still have the energy for a dip in the pool or a family game of touch football.

Even though the dish is vegan, the rich, chewy mushrooms can handle a full, red wine. The best cabernet sauvignon pairing will bring out the meaty, earthiness of the Portobello. If you prefer a white wine, go with a California chardonnay.

For a deceptively easy recipe that takes full advantage of the rich flavors of Italian cooking, you can't go wrong with this vegan Portobello mushroom bruschetta. It's sure to become a summer staple.

Recipe: 

Prep time: 9 minutes

Cook time: 6 minutes

Serves: 8

Vegan Portobello Mushroom Bruschetta is a delicious and healthy appetizer or center of a balanced meal.

Ingredients:

4 Portobello mushrooms

4 chopped tomatoes

6 garlic cloves

2/3 cup olive oil

1 cup chopped basil

salt and pepper

Directions:

Begin by cleaning the mushrooms. Cut off the stems and use a spoon to remove the gills.

Press 3 garlic cloves. In a small bowl, combine with 1/4 cup of the olive oil. Use a brush to coat the mushrooms with the marinade. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Use a hot grill or a heated pan on the stove top to grill 3-4 minutes on each side.

While grilling the mushrooms, combine the tomatoes with the basil and the rest of the garlic and olive oil. Top the Portobello caps with the tomato filling and serve.

Feel free to play around with the recipe. Try adding chopped onions or a balsamic vinaigrette. Add feta or parmesan cheese for a non-vegan version.
