{Hello friends}

  Hoping this finds my sister bloggers doing well on this windy Sunday afternoon. Yep, we've got a little wind howling around here and a tad cool but I am enjoying a lazy afternoon. My Sunday lunch crowd (my family) have left for the day so I am kicked back. Sunday menu today consisted of: Chicken and dressing Giblet gravy Italian green beans with ham Mac & Cheese Homemade chocolate cake with peanut butter frosting and chocolate ganache.  Yep, they are little spoiled at Nana's house. I am not a huge fan of cakes with icing but it must have been good as one of the grands had two slices.  These gals and I have been friends for more years than I remember and since we've all retired within a few months apart in retirement and age (dating back to 4th grade in school) we try to get together once every 4-6 weeks.

Wednesday in the Word-Be Alert

All the more reason that we acknowledge Ephesians 6:10-18 and put on the whole armor of God daily! Satan will stop at nothing with his attacks. He watches us, studies us and finds our weaknesses and then he makes his move.  He wants our marriages, our children, our family, our friends and our church. He doesn't care who his prey is and he is just like a sniper! He comes in when you least expect him. He hides  quite well. He is constantly looking for h...

Wednesday in the Word-Keepsake

I love keepsakes don't you? The definition of the word "Keepsake" is: something that you keep to help you remember a person, place, or event : a memento or souvenir. I am sure you are like me and have many keepsake items. I have quite a few keepsake things that belonged to my great-grandparents and my grandparents. Some in which I have handed down already to my children and some that will be handed down to them one day. I have many keepsake items that my sweet friends has given me over the years. I have things that when I look at it it carries me back to where I was and what I was doing at the time I bought it. I love keepsake items. There is ALWAYS a story or a memory to go with it.  Recently I bought this silver trinket box. Isn't it so pretty? The picture doesn't do it justice because the details are absolutely beautiful.  I purchased it from Things Remembered which is well known for their engraving. I had the cross placed on the left and the scri...
