An Apple a Day
Apples – the wonderful fruit that keeps doctors away! Well, not really. Because I serve up sliced apples many mornings and sprinkle a little cinnamon on them, it doesn’t really mean we won’t need doctors. Or does it? The National Institute of Health (NIH) says there is no evidence that eating an apple a day…
These are the Moments
It isn’t the money in my wallet or the car I drive or home I live in. It isn’t the TV show that makes me laugh or the movie I see that inspires me. Nothing can compare with the priceless gratitude moments that represent my favorite things. As I was writing this blog after just…
Is Life Bland to You?
I enjoy taking a bite of my yogurt, blueberries, and granola with a quick follow-up of coffee. There’s something about having a sweet taste combined with yummy coffee. I go for the flavored-coffee pods. This day, however, the coffee is bland every time I take a sip. I carry on with it being bland through…
Sweet & Tasty Treats
I read that Krispy Kreme celebrated its 85th birthday on July 13th. AND, to celebrate, from July 11th through July 14th, they chose multiple guests each day to receive an 85th birthday card worth a dozen free glazed donuts a month for a year. I’m sorry I missed the big celebration! Well, not really. The…
There’s Nothing That Says LOVE Like Chocolate
I have a confession to make. I LOVE chocolate so much so, that I should be a member of Chocoholics Anonymous! So of course, I chose the chocolate cake slice instead of the white cake slice that was lovingly distributed to our community in honor of Valentine’s Day. This love celebration started with a precious…
Tasting is Believing
I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream! It all started with my dad cranking that ice cream maker for what seemed forever. But the results were worth the wait — yummy homemade peach ice cream! That’s when my ice cream addiction began. Then, my dad enabled even more love for that tasty…
Help Me! I’m an Ice Cream-oholic!
I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream! My addiction to ice cream started with the yummy homemade peach ice cream my dad made in those old crank ice cream makers. Then, my dad enabled more love when after church each Sunday night, he’d take me to the nearby convenience store and buy…
God Help Me! My Routine Went AWOL!
Routine: sequence of actions regularly followed; a fixed program, practice, pattern, regimen, plan, habits, schedule My routine, first thing each morning, is to send a text message to my children, and my sister-in-law. Just a few love words to let them know that I was thinking about them and praying for them. My next morning…
Got Hunger? Get Filled!
Yesterday, I posted about the thirst for water AND God’s living water that will quench our thirst as we draw closer to Him. Today, it’s hunger for natural food and the food of God’s Word and presence. Our 13-day faith pilgrimage most certainly DIDN’T include a spiritual fast from food. We were literally filled with…
I LOVE Chocolate
Day 12 in this Month of Love — I LOVE Chocolate How can I be celebrating the Month of Love without celebrating my LOVE for chocolate? Actually, I am a recovering chocoholic. I’m not near as addicted as I was when the sweet, savory and delectible chocolate treats DIDN’T go to my hips! LOL! Last…
