It’s been a lovely week at home after a ladies’ retreat last weekend at Southland Camp in Louisiana. It was a wonderful time with precious friends, old and new!
Happy Good Friday!
Safe Am I

When our daughter and son-in-law brought their precious twin boys home from the hospital, I watched with intensity as they got the babies ready to go to sleep in their bassinets. They would lay down a blanket on the changing table, set the baby at an angle in the middle, and then bring each side in very tightly.

Flavorful Chicken Wings Without Frying
I have a confession – I had never made Chicken Wings until two weeks ago. Now I understand the rage! The great thing about the recipe I used was that they were not fried….nor were they air-fried!

There are 100 Rules she’s written about decorating. Each one is so inspiring – not restricting! I thought I’d show how I’ve implemented some of those rules in my home. Here’s one – Everything that sits out is decoration. That means your box of tissues, the pill bottle or your stash of pens. Therefore, if you want it to be a pretty decor, make it so! Here’s how I fixed my tissue box that was sitting on the side table in the living room.

Who me, Overreact?

It’s so easy for me to feel defeated in my Christian life, but it’s only when I’m listening to the lies of the Devil…
