Are
you new to whole and
traditional foods or to
"Nourishing
Traditions"? Have
you just gone
gluten/dairy-free and
don’t know what to
eat?
The
menu mailer covers 6
dinners (including side
dishes) and one dessert
every week. It
contains a full menu,
shopping list, a
preparation plan, and
serving suggestions for
each meal. Tips and
information are included
in every mailer as well.
What
makes the Cooking
Traditional Foods menu
mailer unique? A
preparation schedule is
included with every menu
mailer. It reminds
you when to thaw the
meat, prep the crock-pot,
make the stock or soak
the grains. Because
lack of planning is a
major hurdle in getting
healthy meals on the
table, this schedule
helps you make sure
everything is done.
It also contains
blanks so you can write
in your own reminders for
breakfast, snacks and
lunches.
Biblical
Womanhood began in
2005 as a ministry to
encourage and equip women
and young women. Through
our bookstore, articles,
newsletter, and blog, we
desire to promote
femininity and build up
women as they embrace
their Biblical callings.
In this humanistic,
feministic culture, we
want to be a breath of
fresh air to women
seeking after something
greater than what the
world has to offer - to
glorify the Lord in all
they do, say, and think!

I just recently found out that Subway is hosting a contest for elementary aged children, but are not allowing home educated students to enter. I encourage everyone to send them a little note letting them know your feelings on this. Maybe if they receive a huge number of letters regarding this, they will reconsider how they treat home-educated students. You can send them email at their website:
I was very disappointed to find that you state that home-educated children were not allowed to enter your contest. This is both wrong and discriminatory.
"Contest is open only to legal US residents, over the age of 18 with children in either elementary, private or parochial schools that serve grades PreK-6. No home schools will be accepted".
I don't know if you know it, but in Texas, homeschools ARE CONSIDERED private schools. So, according to Texas law, any of my children should be able to enter your contest, since you do allow private school entries. But since you have chosen to disallow home educated children, we will not be entering, nor will we or any member of my family or our homeschool organization be eating at a Subway anytime in the near future.
Do you realize HOW many home-educated students there are in the US? According to the National Home Education Research Institute…
"There were an estimated 1,700,000 to 2,100,000 children (grades K-12) home educated during 2002-2003 in the United States. Homeschooling appears to still be the fastest-growing form of education."
AND this was information is five years old. There are now MANY more home educators! In some states there are record numbers of students leaving the public education system to join the already OVER 2 MILLION home educated students. If all the home educated families stopped eating at Subway, your business would be in a bit of a pickle (so to speak).
By not allowing home-educated students to participate in your contest, you are being discriminating to a rather large portion of students. I for one will be boycotting your business. I also have a rather large blog, homeschool group, and am on several large homeschool email groups. I will be posting this information to each of them and pass the word along farther. Homeschoolers tend to stick together and stand up for what's right, so if you notice a profit loss in the next few months, maybe you should consider this.
Thank you for your time and I do hope that you will reconsider your position on this contest.
