    Jonah | The Right Man for the Job

    July 29, 2020 / No Comments

    For the past 3 weeks in church, we’ve been talking about Jonah, and if you’ve ever been within 200 yards of a bible teaching church (or within 1,000 yards of a rowdy group of VBS kids) you know the story.  God wants Jonah to go to Nineveh, Jonah is afraid/against the idea so much so that he runs 3,000 miles in the OPPOSITE direction to try and escape.  Nowadays we can roll our eyes at this story, because most of us know the scripture in Psalms that reads: “Where can I go from your Spirit?  Where can I flee from your presence?  If I go up to the heavens, you…

    What do Donald Trump, Lauren Daigle and Pastor Steven Furtick have in common

    February 8, 2020 / No Comments

    You may be saying at this point, “what’s up with her ridiculously long blog titles lately?”, and you’d have a valid question.  Sometimes, though, a short and sweet title won’t do.  I’m writing what comes to me, when it comes to me and as it comes to me, and this was next.  It’s actually been a few weeks in the making, so it was due time. So, what do Donald Trump, Lauren Daigle and Pastor Steven Furtick have in common? First, let’s find out what they don’t have in common Donald Trump Like it or not, he’s our 45th – and as of writing this, current – president.  As a…

    Overcoming Unhealthy Mentalities

    January 16, 2020 / No Comments

    Paradigm Change Over the past few years, I’ve come to the conclusion (slowly) that when it comes to my diet choices I change my mind like my 7 year old daughter changes outfits. I can be swayed as easily as a boat in a hurricane from a simple Netflix documentary, a convincing Pinterest graphic or the latest diet fad synopsis from a friend. All of this, in an effort to seek health, has left me feeling anything but healthy. This quest has filled my mind with opposing thoughts threatening sure disaster “if I eat…” or “if I don’t do…” – it’s madness I tell you, madness! I certainly fit the…

    Seasons change.  That’s something we can all agree on.  Seasons of the year, plainly seen by all in the changing trees, sunrise and set, and the weather around us…  But also, and more importantly, seasons of life.  Seasons of life, some linger like an unforgiving winter with no end in sight, while others fly by like a leaf caught up in the swift wind tunnels of early spring.  Can anyone relate? I think we all experience this, which isn’t a shocker – for the bible tells us so. When we were children we coveted nothing higher than simply growing up.  We anticipated adulthood like it was some sort of medal…

    How to Survive on One Income?

    May 27, 2018 / No Comments

    The economy isn’t what it used to be, friends.  20 some years ago it was completely acceptable and attainable for families to get by in a one income household.  Nowadays, we see moms dropping off their newborns to daycare, relatives homes, leaving them with dad who just got off third shift work himself, and hustling off to a 9-5 (or more) job.  I’m not saying there’s anything wrong with moms working, heck – I say more power to ya if you can juggle it all! – but… lots of moms don’t have a choice.  There are some families who want mom to stay at home and raise the kids, but…

     I am switching this up a bit from 10 things you would tell your 16 year old self if you could to just writing a letter to my 16 year old self.  Reason being, I don’t know if I can genuinely come up with 10 things.  Heck, there might be more or there might be less, I won’t know until I start.  I think that a letter format would be much easier and more heartfelt anyhow, so feel free to improvise too if you are following along with your very own blog challenge.  This is about having fun, we’re not being graded for following directions =)         Dear 16 year old…

    Stay at Home Mom Guilt

    August 27, 2013 / No Comments

    When most of us think of mom’s suffering from feelings of guilt, we imagine the modern day working mom.  The 9-5 mom who wakes up before the sun, rushing around to press her suit, make a (time-permitting) wholesome breakfast for her family, and dropping off her precious bundle of joy at daycare before sitting in bumper to bumper traffic heading to a cookie-cutter job position where she will count down the seconds until she can hear that little giggle and wipe those sticky fingers again.  What we don’t usually imagine is the mom who is blessed to be home with her babies, all day, every day, rain or shine, in…

So I just realized something that I feel like shou So I just realized something that I feel like should have been obvious to me sooner considering how much I bake lol.

My oven runs hot most of the time,which I sorta knew. But, while our cookies have always turned out delicious and fairly uniform as long as I mix them completely and time them correctly … babysitting them and adjusting the oven temperature and even cracking open the oven door during the last few minutes if it “feels right” makes a huge difference in their appearance, uniformity and texture!  Check out more photos in the comments . 

The other thing to consider is some like them crispy some like them soft. The great thing about these cookies is they have that initial crisp but they’re chewy and amazing inside.  I’m staying away from processed sugar but I did have one yesterday I won’t lie. Lol.

It’s one of the few nemesis I have left in the kitchen.  I’ve tried several methods, several different air popper machines (soggy and chewy) on the stove (Dutch oven, cast iron, stainless steel, lid)… in the oven (hard fail), etc and it’s always soggy or chewy??

Did you know that 🌎 worldwide 🌎 , 3 of 5 peo Did you know that 🌎 worldwide 🌎 , 3 of 5 people die due to chronic inflammatory diseases like stroke, chronic respiratory diseases, heart disorders, cancer, obesity, and diabetes. 3 out of 5 people.

It’s a silent killer, you really don’t even know it until it’s too late.  There’s even a theory that High Cholesterol numbers aren’t even something to worry about IF you don’t have a ton of inflammation in your body (cause that’s what makes it bad!). 

I'm not saying this to be a bummer, but it's real, and we can't ignore it.

That’s EXACTLY what we’re going to help you decrease in your body with the 11 Day Jumpstart.

It was never just about losing weight, it’s about decreasing inflammation, so you can LIVE.

(Weight loss just happens as well 🙂 )

My #1 thing I’m excited about doing is cutting out processed sugar…. I did it last year around this time, and I went strong for about 6 months, but then slowly I made “exceptions” here and there - and probably will be chowing down on some terrible stuff on Christmas if I’m being honest 🤣

Shoot me a message if you want to jump in on the Jumpstart. It’s totally free, you just need to grab the vitamins and minerals you’ll need. No biggie.

This is what I'm choosing to live for (and all my kids of course!) 👇
