Today I am excited to post one of my recent recipe favoriets in honor of the Project 31’s Share a Recipe. In case you didn’t know, I’m quite the obsessed baker & home cook extraordinaire. :) I have a recipe blog chock full of sweet treats and savory dishes that have been created or tried and […]
The One with THE Blizzard
You would have thought people in Michigan were afraid of snow or something. The way everyone was talking about THE BLIZZARD was almost hilarious. Of course, I know there are hazards and dangers and power outages that accompany blizzardous conditions, but let’s pull on our boots and greet this thing with open arms, people! I […]
The One with One Thousand Gifts
I am so thrilled to be joining the (in)courage community of Christ-centered bloggers on a life changing journey through Ann Voskamp’s book One Thousand Gifts. Though I’ve only read the first few pages, I am certain that Ann’s words are going to move in the depths of my spirit and be a tool God uses to […]
The One with the 10 Healthy Life Tips
It has been six years since I started my journey of living a healthy lifestyle. I don’t want to spend my life pursuing the latest diets or counting calories–although those can be great ways to jump-start weight loss. I am learning the keys to moderation in eating and in exercise, and I pray you can […]
The One with the Beautiful Friend
I have a friend. A very good friend. She is loyal. She is faithful. She is loving. She is supportive. She is fun. She is a listener. She is beautiful. She loves Jesus. When I read the Project 31 prompt “Write a Blog to Encourage Another Beautiful Woman,” I knew God was leading me to […]
On Jesus Leading
Jesus says, Follow Me. You do not need to know where the road will lead you, because I am your Heavenly Father. I would never take you into danger, and if we walk into a place of pain or hardship, you need not fear. I am taking you through it–you are not going it alone. […]
Breaded Buffalo Chicken Tenders
This meal deserves the title “Make Your Own Take Out.” Rachael Ray would be proud of me. :) Crispy, juicy, tender and spicy, you will definitely want to make these Chicken Tenders for dinner this week! The best part of this recipe is the heat level is completely in your control. In fact, if you’re not […]
The One with the [5 minute] Women
On this wonderful wintery Friday, I am joining The Gypsy Mama and others on a Five Minute Friday post. The prompt: “The Women.” START. These past couple days have been a day of “The Women”–just Mom and me. It’s been lovely, really. Dad is on a Utah trip with the guys, skiing his little heart out, […]
Beef Stir Fry
Stir fry (done right) is one of the healthiest, easiest meals anyone could make. There are no “rules” just a general destination in mind. You can use whatever ingredients you have on hand–broccoli, mushrooms, snow peas, carrots, bell peppers, garlic, onions, meat or no meat at all. The options are endless! From the moment I […]
The One with the Letter of Love
The glory of God is a man fully alive. [St. Iranaeus] A letter of thanks. Dear Kevin, I think you know by now how wholly and passionately I love you. But, my husband, I truly believe without your incredible love for me, I wouldn’t have the capacity for such a love. God has given you […]
