God’s Hand of Protection Through a Tornado
I just heard about the tornado that hit Joplin, MO yesterday. There have been 122 people confirmed dead. Loulla Belle was there and writes of her experience and shares many pictures of the damage left by the tornado. Keep them in prayer as they go about finding people and their belongings. What a hard, hard thing for the people of Joplin. Luke 12:6-7 Are not five sparrows sold for two farthings, and not one of them is forgotten before God? But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore: ye are of more value than many sparrows.

Inspecting Bee Hives

The smoke disorients the bees and therefore, they do not try to sting you. We like that! Zachary has 2 hives about 15′ apart. When he opened the first hive, he found that things weren’t progressing like they should. You see, the bees cap each of the cells as the larva is deposited into them and almost…

Salisbury Steak with Onion and Mushroom Gravy
Potatoes au Gratin paired with this Salisbury Steak make a delicious supper as we found out last week. The pictures kind of make you think you would be better off if you never ate it, but the flavor is where it’s at folks. It is so good. This meal was a keeper for everyone but Audrey. Maybe the next time it shows up on our table, she’ll have a different opinion. Bad picture quality, I know. Sorry about that… Even if you aren’t a fan of mushrooms, you’re going to like this. Just don’t use the mushrooms and all will be okay. I got this recipe from Cooking During Stolen Moments and changed a…

Making Breakfast Ahead
I have the hardest time making breakfast in the morning. I wake quite early but to hustle into the kitchen at 7a.m. and to get started on a big hot meal is really difficult for me. So, I’ve been contemplating making breakfasts’ in bulk and freezing them, minimizing my preparation time in the morning. I’m at the point where I’m ready to DO it. I’ll still be making baked oatmeal, waffles and such because those are quick and easy but we can’t have that every day, can we? Or can we? 🙂 My husband’s grandpa had oatmeal every day for years. That made life simple for everybody, didn’t it? 🙂 But… I just…
