Septuagenarian, what does this mean? How will you find out?

Tuesday

Perspective on this time from a New York Times Journalist
….”Whiplash. Going cold turkey. Zero to 60 except reversed. I have relied on a host of metaphors to think about my transition from perpetual motion to stillness, my world the size of a city block in many ways. It feels trivial to bemoan a temporary end to travel, but there’s more at stake than joy rides to a distant beach. We risk losing the connections we have spent centuries building with the world around us. With airplane fleets grounded and hotels shuttered, when travel resumes, there is no doubt it will look different.”

LANGUAGE 
Lat·inˈlatn | 
noun the language of ancient Rome and its empire, widely used historically as a language of scholarship and administrationLatin is a member of the Italic branch of the Indo-European family of languages. After the decline of the Roman Empire, it continued to be a medium of communication among educated people throughout the Middle Ages in Europe and remained the liturgical language of the Roman Catholic Church until the reforms of the Second Vatican Council (1962–65); it is still used for scientific names in biology and astronomy. The Romance languages are derived from it.
also, in Science, Medicine, Flower, Plant, and Animal Groupings, where else can you find Latin Roots, beginnings of words, and Suffixes, the endings of words used? Testing in High School, for entrance to College, SSAT/SAT and ACT Exams. Scroll down to learn the Colors in the Romance languages and see their origin.


Look for Latin and Greek prefixes and suffixes in your reading material.

I see these at Staples and the Mail Box Store often


Greek and Latin Roots are both part of the English language we use as well as part of the other Romance Languages, the Greek Language is very ancient and if you can find a book in Greek, Library sales sometimes have these, the language is beautiful to look at. Does anyone of your family speak any of these languages? Look at the language, Look for similarities, differences, and the beauty of the language.

3 tips to make cooking with your kids easier.
““Invite little ones to think of a recipe that Cookie Monster would want to eat, or what Ernie would make for Bert,” suggests Tyler Lee. Simple recipes like Froyo Pops and smoothies are a good place to start because they’re quick, easy, and relatively low mess. Engage your preschooler by inviting them to organize and measure the ingredients, load ingredients into the blender, or count down the seconds while your smoothie is blending.
Middle schoolers can take on more challenging games. Invite tweens to find a recipe that uses one of the key ingredients in your pantry, like canned chickpeas. "Let them search for recipes online, comb through your stack of favorite cookbooks, or call a friend for recommendations,” says Tyler Lee. Bonus points for creative application of pantry staples, like using canned lentils instead of eggs to make Super Moist Chocolate Cake.”  

As for chemistry, the low-sugar recipes in Half the Sugar, All the Love can inspire conversations on our favorite topic: food science.
