Red and White Tablescape
I served Italian the night we had this tablescape. The pictures appear to be a little distorted. Tip: Always be sure your tablecloth is smoothed out and doesn’t have wrinkles like mine is showing. If you have actual wrinkles, take a spray bottle filled with water and spray the wrinkle generously. It’s a quick little fix that can really help if you’re in a hurry. To see many other beautiful tablescapes visit Between Naps on the Porch.

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
Zachary has had his bees for a little over a month. You can read about that here. After your bees arrive you leave them alone for about a week and then you can start inspections to be sure the bees are doing well. Inspecting the Bee Hives First you need to get your smoker ready. 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…
