But Are You Prudent?

I’m sharing in today’s new podcast episode an embarrassing time when prudence was sorely lacking in my decision making. What does it mean to be prudent anyway? The Scriptures give a clear picture of how we can display it, and also what it looks like when it is lacking! Proverbs 22:3 says,

 A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself: but the simple pass on, and are punished.

Here’s a little snippet of my embarrassing story…

Charcuterie Board Fellowship

Let’s face it, we can all get into a rut when it comes to what we eat. Even group fellowships can fall into a routine that isn’t nearly as fun as it should be!

Last week our small group broke out of the traditional meals (Mexican, Italian, Pizza, etc) and had a Charcuterie Board meal! Everyone was instructed to go check out some ideas on Pinterest and bring a board that would be suitable for supper. Here’s a pic of all the boards spread on my kitchen counter…

We had a Salad Board, Cheese and Meats, Fruits and Veggies and other fun additions. No one left hungry!

I decided to do a Baked Potato Board with all the fixings, as well as a Fruit and Chocolate Board.

February Fun!

For a the shortest month of the year, February was certainly full AND fun! I thought I’d share the highlights with you today as we wrap up this last full week.

Paint – We had all of the downstairs of our house painted (except my husband’s office). After 9 1/2 years of living here, it really needed to be freshened up! I chose to cover the original khaki color with WHITE! It’s called, Blue Kiss. It has slight cast of blue in the white, rather than gray, brown or yellow. I love it! It really brightens the rooms up. I chose a semi-gloss and love how it reflects the light. I know it’s going to be easier to clean as well.

Living with A Heart of Welcome

There are lots of definitions and ideas about hospitality, but the biblical view isn’t what you see on Instagram. We see it clearly in Jesus’ response to everyone He met. He showed it with one word – “Come!” This podcast shares the heart of Christ in regards to being hospitable and the practical ways we can demonstrate this godly character trait.

What will it look like? Here’s a clip to pique your interest…

Creamy Chicken & Rice Soup

It was one of those days that were extremely busy and I decided to purchase a rotisserie chicken at Sam’s Club for our supper. When I got home with it, I wanted to take that chicken breast and turn it into something really savory. The search I did on Pinterest led me to a favorite site – Sally’s Baking Addiction. She has some incredible recipes that I’ve tried in the past and this one did not disappoint, either! My pictures don’t give this soup an accurate representation. Why not? Because it was so good, I ate half of my portion and THEN remembered to snap a photo! (Any other bloggers relate?)
