Making the Bread
A few months ago in this little blog, I mentioned I was trying my hand at a few new things. One thing I left off the list, (kind of on purpose), was making homemade bread. I think I’ve mentioned before that I have a love-hate relationship with yeast. I love it in things that other…

Prayers for Harriet’s Return
A few months ago I shared a post in this little blog about the eagles we have down here, (the header pic of this blog today is an eagle just outside our lanai a few weeks ago). We’re fortunate to have the Southwest Florida Eagle Cam that keeps track of one eagle family in the…

The Individual Blessings
Thanks, everyone for your encouragement yesterday, your prayers, and your kind comments. I definitely felt the love and am feeling much better 🙂 .

The Xbox and The Fishing Pole
Last week a friend was sharing a funny story with me about her son who is in middle school. You see, my friend knows how much I love to fish, and her son shares the passion as well. Like me, he can fish all day, every day. He can stand on a dock for hours…

Yesterday after church, I put together the fixings for soup in the crock pot. Yes even here in South Florida, the weather warranted soup. It was 40 when we headed out to church, and I had to dig deep into the closet for warm sweaters 🙂 . It was nice to have the smells of…

Sunset Bells as the Moon Rises
Last night we had dinner with friends. They live near the water and asked us to stop by before dinner so we could watch the sunset with some snacks before heading out. We got there a little after five and enjoyed some time catching up. They weren’t in town when Ian hit, so we shared…

Some Thoughts to Close the Year
Well, it’s New Year’s Eve and like most people, I’ve been thinking about 2022 as we say goodbye to it. Like many years it had its ups and downs, celebrations, and heart aches, but most importantly, 2022 brought me closer to God. The first part of the year brought new opportunities, I joined a gym…

Try Something New
A friend sent to me this meme Christmas day and I’ve seen it a few times since then on social media, “Don’t be afraid to try something new..Remember..Amateurs built the Ark..Professionals built the Titanic”. Wow, I’d say that is pretty profound and sooooo true! It’s funny isn’t it, how so many of us are afraid…
