Tater's Ranch Dressing

I love my salads and I LOVED ranch dressing.  When I started my health journey I knew that I needed to change what I put on my salads.  This recipe is wonderful, make it with all organic ingredients.

The National Monument to the Forefathers

The National Monument to the Forefathers

 

      Mom and I were talking today and she was telling me about The National Monument to the Forefathers, once called the Pilgrim Monument, which honored the Mayflower Pilgrims and to commemorate the Mayflower Pilgrims’ first landing in the New World in Provincetown, in November 1620. She asked me if I had seen Kirk Cameron new film, Monumental. She went on to ask me if I had ever been taught about the Monument in school and I said, “No, never heard of it.”  After our conversation I wondered why not?  I have been around the United States, and have personally seen many monuments that our country celebrates as part of our heritage, so why not this one.  My Mom’s expressed curiosity prompted me to Google it.  As a Believer in Jesus, and his word, The Holy Bible, I was thrilled to run on this piece of history.

My Love for the Foxfire Books

FOXFIRE

I discover the foxfire books in the 80s, and fell in love them then, and that love relationship has grown through the years.  The books are a flash back to my folks (def. folk (plural noun) people, especially people of the same type); most of whom have gone on to heaven now, and those books continue to bring back that past world to me.

My Shoe Prayer

This morning’s spiritual question:

Have you ever had a “George Muller” answered prayer? Describe it.

(George Muller, a 19^th century founder of children’s orphanages who confided in God, and God alone, for his and the orphanages needs.  Never letting on to anyone, out side of God, what those needs were. )

Down Black Dog, Down!

Ephesians 6:12-13

For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

Today my Father God confirmed plainly to me the reasons to ignore my screaming flesh and go to church…

A Week's Worth of Juicing

Someone asked me recently, "how many vegetables and fruits do you juice in a weeks time?"

Bowls

 

Bowls

In every culture past or present it is obvious that women love their bowls.  Artifacts tell so much about a community and even more precise about the persons who own them.

Snowflakes Falling in a Heated Pool

 

Snowflakes Falling in a Heated Pool

I was floating face up in a heated pool in the middle of winter and it began to snow.  The only thing above water was my face; everything else was under the warmth.  I had been floating for over an hour just staring up into the star filled sky listening to the muted laughter of my best friend and our children playing.  She was allowing me to fade from reality and was entertaining my son whose life, along with mine, had again been crushed.

Creamed Asparagus Soup

Creamed Asparagus Soup

It has been down right cold here the past couple of days and hot soup is always my answer to a comfy way to warm up.  I call this soup creamed even though it doesn’t have any milk products in it.  It still tastes amazingly creamy because   the rotisserie chicken broth recipe I use is so full of flavor.  I love to make a toasted grilled cheese with Ezekiel Bread, Butter, and organic Pepper Jack.  Good stuff!

Queen of the Sun

Queen of the Sun

I watched this film last night, very amazing visuals and an eye opener to what is going on with our vital resource.  We are wanting to start our own backyard bee colony this spring.  It saddens me to think what we have done with what God has given us to care for but I am encouraged at the same time that there are those in our world that are willing to reverse that damage. 

 

Synopsis: Bees are a barometer of the health of the world, and with the current Colony Collapse Disorder, we are in a state of emergency. Once a sacred partnership, the bond between humans and bees has become a profit-driven exploitation. Here, the unsung heroes dedicated to the survival of bees are highlighted: from poets and philosophers to scientists and shamans, from political activists to biodynamic beekeepers. In 1923, he predicted that the continued practice of artificial queen bee-breeding would bring about the demise of the honeybee. Now, pesticides, herbicides, and genetically engineered plants exacerbate the problem, and the current bee crisis confirms Steiner's dire predictions.
