I’ve been reading the book Anything by Jennie Allen for the last few weeks as part of an online Bible Study. Somehow I always manage to get behind on these things but that’s why I love the online studies, I can go at my own pace! God never seems to be surprised by my procrastination, in fact, a lot of […]

Quinoa, the super hero of grains, is packed with protein and fiber, is gluten free and is versatile enough to be used in a variety of meals. We love it! It’s such a great way to add some protein to a meal. I use it in place of rice as a side, in main dishes, granola bars, breakfast bakes, chili.. […]

Well, thanks to the hottest summer on record in 75 years here in NC, the garden is fading quickly! I’m sad about it. I didn’t do nearly as much canning as I would have liked to this year. Thankfully, I did put away lots of corn and zucchini and I’m still getting a few random zucchinis. We’re also getting lots […]

Moms, I’m sure you’ve been here at some point. You’ve heard the whiney voice pleading with you not to get rid of something or begging you to be able to take something with them.

I just love our backyard. When we were looking to buy a house, I knew we had to have a backyard with trees. Trees aren’t so easy to come by when you’re looking in housing developments, especially mature trees like the ones we have, but God provided. Our house has a beautiful fenced backyard with large trees, and a covered […]

Ahh.. summertime in the south.. Sweet tea. Tomato sandwiches. Corn on the cob. Fried Squash. Does it get any better than that? Those were the things I grew up on. My Dad always had a huge garden so my mom made us garden fresh dinners or “suppers” like the one above all the time. There’s just something about a huge plate of vegetables straight from the […]

Saturday night, we sat at the end of our driveway. It had been a wonderful day with friends and family. We planned to end the night with a bang and light up some sparklers and a little waterfall type firework. Afterward, we sat down in the driveway and listened to the fireworks going off all around us. Every now and […]

Dying Queen Anne’s Lace is another one of those childhood memories I’m passing on to my daughter. I remember doing these as a child at Vacation Bible Schools and with my mom. It’s such a simple way to add some color to an already beautiful flower. Queen Anne’s Lace (also known as wild carrot) is a beautiful, white flower. They […]

My “oldest” sister (she loves is when I call her that, lol) and I are 18 years apart. I became an Aunt when I was 4, so I grew up pretty close in age to my nieces and nephews. As a result we often did things together. So when my sister started making her kids some sponge painted t-shirts she made some for me too. I specifically […]
