{Baking, Family, Friends and Fun}

Oh my! It's been a month since I have blogged. I honestly have found it hard to keep up but I am blaming on family time! What better explanation could I have huh? Well, maybe BAKING ! Vanilla cake with chocolate sauce filling and cool whip with powdered sugar icing topped with sprinkles.  Chocolate with fresh strawberry filling with buttercream frosting and a touch of candy pearls. Butter cake with buttercream icing and chocolate sauce.   There has been a whole lot of baking going on at my house. I get in these moods at times. Family & friends have enjoyed my gifts of love. My daughter Melissa and I carried my granddaughter Kyleigh and one of her sweet friends to see Snow White. We had such a fun time with the girls. Our family enjoyed watching our granddaughter Adalynn in her first cheer competition. Her team won 1st place.  Our granddaughter Mallory attended her Junior prom and had the best time. I've decided that blue is her color! I thought this was the cutest pi...

TUESDAY TOOTS

Just got to toot about our vacation in the mountains a little. I've got so many pictures to share but for today just want to share a few. We had such a good time. Peaceful, serene and beautiful!   Nothing like waking up to a fresh brewed cup of coffee.... The best part about waking up is Foldgers in your cup! The name of our Sweet cabin was Serenity and it was all that more! This picture was taken when we first arrived...before the SNOW!!!!! We loved it! We go every year to the mountains and each year we try a different cabin...Loved this one! The eye candy on the inside was beautiful. Very rustic and yet with a hint of the tuscany feel. Will have to share that another time.  Side View....YES, lots of stairs! Thought I was going to have to drag out my inhaler! Ha!  Sweet... Now the fun begins....  Neither of us was prepared for snow! We would play awhile and go inside by the fireplace a while.  We decided to build a snowman but it was so ...

SUNDAY SHARING-Spiritual Aneroxia

I would like to share a post from a sweet little sister in the Lord...I hope you feel the LORD as I did through her post. Please pop over and visit her blog. Kristin Tanner http://apeonsperspective.blogspot.com/ Recovering from Spiritual Anorexia Can I be honest with you? These last couple of years I have lived like a woman who has spiritual anorexia. The spiritual food was readily available but I refused its daily nourishment for my life. As an anorexic loses her ability to enjoy and find adequate nourishment in one of her most basic daily needs, so had I lost my ability to enjoy and receive spiritual nourishment from reading the Bible. Like an anorexic, the less intake I had in my Bible reading, the more I looked for fulfillment in other places. Like an anorexic, the less I partook in the feeding of my soul the more I began to feed my sin. Like an anorexic, I was in a depressed state and in my case did not even realize it. Like an anorexic, my perception o...
