I made the cauliflower soup this afternoon. I made some adjustments because I didn't have all the ingredients for the chutney. I just added the apples, a teaspoon of dijon, and a pinch of cinnamon to the soup. Then I pureed a good bit of it. I used almonds instead of cashews also. I added a pinch of cayenne, and a little salt when I put it in a soup bowl. I don't cook with salt much. In any case, it was delicious!:hungry: Recipe link again. https://www.drfuhrman.com/recipes/1710/cauliflower-soup-with-apple-chutney?utm_campaign=Recipe of the Day&utm_source=hs_email&utm_medium=email&utm_content=66536762&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-8v7GT-59m5_BNz0CGwwgoIYAobVHAjzsYAgZPRoSPTZ2s34vcbv7Jv2GNJj6zjE_cd8s4mOoxxnsMC8ecc8uQoWh9-4A&_hsmi=66536762

Soccer Drama-

2 kids on T’s team are being moved down. Technically this isn’t allowed because June tryouts guarantee Fall thru Spring seasons without being moved down (can be moved up) until the next year’s June tryout.
Supplemental tryouts are next week, this is where kids can move up, and potential new kids can try out.
Every kid must tryout so they can see how club-hopefuls play with current players.

Basically the 2 kids were told that if they remain on the team they won’t get any playing time, so it would be beneficial to move down. Obviously at that point the parents agreed.

I’m worried though. T BOMBS at tryouts, in any sport. Totally like watching a different kid. I emailed his coach to ask if he was in any danger. The reply was “No, he has great skills, he’s not going anywhere. His confidence has improved a lot this season.
However, I think he could benefit from speed and agility training during the winter. I recommend doing a 6-8 week training session.”

There is absolutely no way that I can fit that in our schedule now!!

If it is this cutthroat at age 8.. what’s it going to be like in a few years??? This whole thing, especially after last Spring, just puts a bad taste in my mouth.


I definitely know that T’s last growth spurt has had a negative impact on his running mechanics and agility.. he still has speed, but he’s not reaching his full potential because of the poor mechanics, he looks a bit awkward. I just feel like the coach should help with that. Give me a plan that he can work on at home. I hope this won’t have an impact at supplementals!

Any jewelry lovers out there (specifically engagement rings/wedding bands) might appreciate this. I have been in the process with my current jeweler to get my ring "re-set". I didn't really like my original engagement and wedding ring setting that I have been wearing since we got married. :rolleyes: Don't get me wrong. I picked them out, but over the years, they got I guess you could say clunky as a set and I wanted something more simple. So I decided to this past September to finally have the center stone rest into a bezel-halo solitaire. I have always had a soft spot for solitaires. And I am getting so anxious to get that baby back!

(I got pics of the original and the casting of the new ring if you want to see;))

Well, I have to say, if they've got 2 kids on the team who are being moved down, which is technically against the rules, they obviously didn't do a very good job with choosing their team. Given that T was originally wait-listed, and now the coach says no way he's going anywhere....That makes 3 kids, out of how many, who were not accurately assessed during the tryout. I should say "at least 3"....there may be more. It doesn't inspire a lot of confidence in their ability to assess skills and get the best out of the kids they coach, because if they were chosen for the team initially, they must have something in them...why isn't it showing now? Probably because these kids are.....kids!! Is it really necessary to take it so seriously? Man, the amount of pressure on these kids must be huge. I'm all for teaching kids to be dedicated and to work hard....discipline...but it doesn't sound like they are rewarding hard work and effort...the emphasis is on being better than everyone else. What do these two kids learn from being moved down?
