I love watching baking shows on television. Just ask my husband! I don’t consider myself an award-winning baker (not even close), but I’m fascinated by how the contestants create such amazing, mouth-watering desserts, along with the pressure of time constraints. Have they memorized their recipes ahead of time, because baking to me is an exact… Continue reading Recipe

Refresh
How do you refresh yourself during these hot summer months? Maybe it’s staying inside a little more often, possibly enjoying a cool glass of iced tea or sweet lemonade. It may be feeling the dip in temperature after a more than likely summer storm. Holding onto that refreshment may require adjusting your schedule for any… Continue reading Refresh

Respect
When this word was suggested to me by a good friend and why she thought it was important, I told her I would pray on it. Over the next hours (and also during church service) the word kept rolling over and over again in my mind. Do you remember the song by Aretha Franklin, “R… Continue reading Respect
